Answer:

0.20 or 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Brown shoes = 3

Black shoes = 2

Total shoes = 5

Brown pants = 1

Black shoes = 3

Total pants = 4

Brown socks =4

Black socks = 6

Red socks = 2

Total socks = 12

In order to choose shoes, pants and socks of the same color, Teddy can go either all black or all brown. For all black, there is a 2 in 5 chance he gets the right shoes, 3 in 4 chance for pants and 6 in 12 for socks. For all brown, there is a 3 in 5 chance he gets the right shoes, 1 in 4 chance for pants and 4 in 12 for socks.

P=P(All\ black)+P(All\ brown)\\P=\frac{2}{5}*\frac{3}{4}*\frac{6}{12}+ \frac{3}{5}*\frac{1}{4}*\frac{4}{12}\\P=0.20

The probability that he chooses shoes, pants, and socks of the same color is 0.20 or 20%.

Llana [10]

Answer:

  • $450,000 at 10%
  • $50,000 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 10%. Then the total interest earned per year is ...

  0.10x + 0.09(500,000-x) = 49,500

  0.01x = 49500 -45000

  x = 4500/0.01 = 450,000

$450,000 was deposited in the 10% account; $50,000 was deposited in the 9% account.

Answer:

<h3>-10a² + 5a</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (–5a)(2a – 1)

Open the bracket

(–5a)(2a – 1)

<em>hence the equivalent expression is -10a² + 5a</em>
