Given that the probability of mail being delivered is 0.90, to evaluate the probability that the mail will be delivered before 2 p.m for 2 consecutive days will be evaluated as follows:
Let the probability that the milk will be delivered before 2 p.m be P(x). Since the two days are independent events, the probability of the mail being delivered before 2 p.m in 2 consecutive days will be:
P(x)×P(x)
=0.9×0.9
=0.81

Answer:

2 gallons of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of pure alcohol needed, and create an equation:

4(0.25) + x(1) = (x + 4)0.5

1 + x = 0.5x + 2

x = 0.5x + 1

0.5x = 1

x = 2

So, 2 gallons of pure alcohol should be added.

Novosadov [1.4K]

if we take 30 to be the 100%, what is 27 off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 30 & 100\\ 27& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{30}{27}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ \cfrac{10}{9}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 10x=900\implies x=\cfrac{900}{10}\implies x=90
