Elza [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The percent decrease was 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, use the percent change equation.

(New - Old)/(Old) * 100 = % Change

Now input 48 for the New price and 60 for the Old price.

(48 - 60)/(60) * 100 = % Change

12/60 * 100 = % Change

.2 * 100 = % Change

20 = % Change

Aysha has 40 cubes in a bag.
marissa [1.9K]

Given:

Total number of cubes = 40

Red cubes = 18

Blue cubes = 13

Yellow cubes = 9

Aysha adds some more red cubes into the bag.

The probability now that she will take a red cube is 0.5.

To find:

The probability that she will take a yellow cube.

Solution:

Let Aysha adds x red cubes into the bag. Then,

Number of total cubes = 40+x

Number of red cubes = 18+x

Probability of getting a red cube is:

P(Red)=\dfrac{18+x}{40+x}

The probability now that she will take a red cube is 0.5. So,

\dfrac{18+x}{40+x}=0.5

18+x=0.5(40+x)

18+x=20+0.5x

x-0.5x=20-18

0.5x=2

Divide both sides by 0.5.

x=\dfrac{2}{0.5}

x=4

It means Aysha adds 4 more red cubes into the bag.

Now, the total number of cubes int he bag is:

40+4=44

Probability of getting a yellow cube is:

P(Yellow)=\dfrac{\text{Number of yellow cubes}}{\text{Total number of cubes}}

P(Yellow)=\dfrac{9}{44}

Therefore, the required probability is P(Yellow)=\dfrac{9}{44}.

Why is a territory considered as a major element of a state​
dlinn [17]
Out of these four elements, Sovereignty stands accepted as the most important and exclusive element of the State. No other organisation or institution can claim sovereignty. An institution can have population, territory and government but not sovereignty. ... These are also loosely called states.
