No, the probability wouldn't be 50/50 because there are 3 silver coins in all. Like the question said, there is a purse with two silver and one with one gold and one silver, so therefore it is a 1/3 chance that the other coin you pull out is a silver coin. (/^ω^)/

Calculate the pay for the following day of a
USPshnik [31]

Answer:  $122.50

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In          Out

8:00    12:00    = 4 hours

12:45    17:30   =<u> 4.75 hours   </u>

          Total        8.75 hours

8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50

Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:

 17:30       →         16:90

- 12:45                -<u> 12:45 </u>

                            4: 45

4 hours 45 minutes = 4\frac{3}{4} = 4.75 hours

Kendra found this relationship between the quantities in the table.
slava [35]

Answer:

Kendra should have multiplied the x-values by 75 to get the y-values

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Table

X|| Y

1 || 75

2 || 150

3 || 225

4 || 300

5 || 375

Given that Kendra multiply x by 7.5 to get y

The relationship of x and y can be calculated as thus;

y = rx

Where y and x are the values at the y and x column respectively and r is the constant of proportionality

When y = 75, x = 1.

Plug in these values in the above formula

y = rx becomes

75 = r * 1

75 = r

r = 75

When y = 150, x = 2

150 = r * 2

Multiply both sides by ½

150 * ½ = r * 2 * ½

75 = r

r = 75

When y = 225, x = 3

225 = r * 3

Multiply both sides by ⅓

225 * ⅓ = r * 3 * ⅓

75 = r

r = 75

Notice that r remains 75 and the difference between y values is 75

If you apply these formula on when y = 300 or 375 and when x = 4 or 5, the constant of proportionality will remain The value of 75.

Hence, Kendra mistake is that; Kendra should have multiplied the x-values by 75 to get the y-values

Step-by-step explanation:

i = prt is the simple interest equation

i = 12,000(0.031) = 372

i = 372*9 = 3348
