If u r getting it for 14% off, then u r paying 86%

so the reduced price can be represented by 0.86x

or
x - 0.14x

Answer: The reduced price can be represented by 86%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of computer be 'x'.

Rate of price reduction = 14%

Amount of reduction would be

\dfrac{14}{100}\times x\\\\=0.14x

So, Reduced price of a computer would be

x-0.14x\\\\=0.86x

Hence, the reduced price can be represented by 86%.

Probability is (outcome wanted)/(total possible outcomes). Total possible outcome is the whole area of the rectangle. Which is (18)(12)=216. The outcome wanted is just the area of the triangle. (0.5)(2)(5)=5. Now 5/216=0.02

A tennis player keeps track of the number of successful first serves he makes. During the first 8 service points of a game, only
Andru [333]

Answer:

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

After n consecutive serves, his total number of serves is going to be n+8, since he has already served 8 times. In the best case, his number of successful first serves is n+2.

His percentage of succesful first serves is the division of the number of succesful first serves divided by the total number of serves. So

P = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

We want P = 0.60. So

0.6 = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

n+2 = 0.6*(n+8)

n + 2 = 0.6n + 4.8

n - 0.6n = 4.8 - 2

0.4n = 2.8

n = \frac{2.8}{0.4}

n = 7

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Michael goes through the same traffic light each day on his way home from work. This year, the traffic light has been green 28 t
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Green = 28

Red = 35

Yellow = y

Prediction of yellow = 16 of 100

Required

Determine y

First, we need to calculate the probability of yellow.

Probability of yellow =

Probability = Yellow/Total

Where

Total = Yellow + Red + Green

Total = y + 35 + 28

Total = y + 63

So,

Probability = y/(y + 63)

Also, the prediction of yellow is 16 out of 100.

Represent this as probability.

Probability = 16/100

Equate both expressions to solve for y

y/(y + 63) = 16/100

y/(y + 63) = 0.16

Multiply both sides by (y + 63)

y = 0.16(y + 63(

y = 0.16y + 10.08

Collect like terms

y - 0.16y = 10.08

0.84y = 10.08

Solve for y

y = 10.08/0.84

y = 12
