Answer:

<u>Joel will have to pay $ 159.60 for the tablet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Discount percentage of the tablets = 20%

Original cost of the tablet = $ 190

Sales tax = 5%

2. How much will Joel pay for the tablet? Show your work in your notebook. Remember to use $.

Let's find the discounted price and the sales tax for that price, this way:

Discounted price = Original price - Discount

Discounted price = 190 - (190 * 0.2)

Discounted price = 190 - 38 = 152

Sales tax of the discounted price = 152 * 0.05

Sales tax = 7.60

Joel will have to pay = Discounted price + Sales tax

Joel will have to pay = 152 + 7.60

<u>Joel will have to pay = $ 159.60</u>

A bag contains 3 red marbles 4 blue marbles and 7 Green marbles if two marbles are drawn out of the bag what is the probability
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

0.368

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red marbles= 3

Number of blue marbles= 4

Number of green marbles= 7

Total number of marbles= 3+4+7= 14

Let the first ball is taken out to be red

P(R)=\frac{3}{14}

than again a second ball is drawn, number of balls left= 14-1=13

Number of red= 2

P(R)=\frac{2}{13}

Total probability=\frac{3}{14}+\frac{2}{13}

Total probability= 0.368

Hence, the correct answer is 0.368
