Putting the value of Y = 15

So, X = 200
His overall net profit would be $500 dollars because every two weeks he makes $500 so over 4 weeks he would make $1000, but lose $500 to rent.
Answer:
option a)
0.286
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
number of red pens in cup = 5
number of black pens in cup = 10
number of pen randomly selected = 3
There are 5 red pens and 10 black pens. So there are 5 + 10 = 15 pens in all.
probability of having all red pens = (5/15 x 4/14 x 3/13)
= 2/91
probability of having all black pens = (10/15 x 9/14 x 8/13)
= 24/91
probability that all pen are of same colour = 24/91 + 2/91
= 2/7
≈ 0.286
<span>2/3 + y - 4/5 = 1/3
y = 1/3 - 2/3 + 4/5
y = -1/3 + 4/5
y =-5/15 + 12/15
y = 7/15</span>
