The probability of drawing a goldfish on the first draw is 16 / ( 16 + 24 ), or 16/40, or 2/5. Supposing that the first fish drawn is actually a goldfish, then there are 15 goldfish left among 39 fish, and the probability of drawing a goldfish on the 2nd draw is 15/39, or 5/13. The (joint) probability of drawing 2 goldfish on the 1st 2 draws, without replacement, is (5/13)(2/5) = 2/13.

Find the greatest common factor of 26 and 14.
Molodets [167]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor is a number that can evenly divide into another number.

Let’s list all the factors of both numbers.

26: 1, 2, 13, 26

14: 1,2, 7, 14

Now find the GCF, or greatest common factor. The biggest number that is a factor of both 26 and 14 is 2.

Therefore, the GCF of 26 and 14 is 2.

When is 20% off better than 20$ off
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Price > 100$

Price > 150$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that x% off of price y$  is better than x$ off.

Hence, \frac{xy}{1000} > x  

Hence, y > 100

Therefore, when the price is more than 100$, then only x% off on the price is better than x$. (Answer)

Again, assume that 20% off on price y$ is better than 30$ off.

Hence, \frac{20y}{100} > 30

⇒ y > 150$

Therefore, when the price is more than 150$, then only 20% of on the price is better than 30$ off. (Answer)
