8 0

Answer:

D) 0.1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(J) = Probability of John to purchase 0 books

Let P(B) = Probability of Beth to purchase 0 books

P(J∩B) = Probability that both john and Beth will purchase 0 books .ie. a total of 0 books is purchased.

Since the decisions to purchase books are two independents events,

P(J∩B) = P(J) * P(B)

P(J) = 0.5

P(B) = 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.5 * 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.125

mr. larsen's third grade class has 22 students, 12 girls and 10 boys. two students must be selected at random to be in the fall
faust18 [17]

The probability that no boys will be chosen is 0.2857

What is probability?

The area of arithmetic called likelihood deals with numerical representations of the chance that an incident can occur or that a press release is true.

Main Body:

Total students =22

total boys = 10

total girls =12

Now we have to chose 2 girls from 12 , so combination is used to select ,

⇒¹²C₂

Also, We have to chose 2 girls from 22 students

so it can be represented as ,

⇒²²C₂

Probability of choosing 2 girls = ¹²C₂/²²C₂

On solving this we will get = 0.2857

Hence the probability is 0.2857

A number decreased by 4 is greater than 13 solve pls
eimsori [14]

Answer:  

Year 10 Interactive Maths - Second Edition

Problem Solving

Linear equations are often used to solve practical problems that have an unknown quantity. We use a suitable pronumeral to represent the unknown quantity, translate the information given in the problem into an equation, and then solve the equation using the skills acquired earlier in this chapter.

Example 11

If a number is increased by 8, the result is 25. Find the number.

Solution:

Let x be the number.  Increasing x by 8 gives x + 8, which we are told is 25.  Therefore, x + 8 = 25.  Subtract 8 from both sides to find x = 17.  So, the number is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps!!!

Handsome jack is buying a pony mad of diamonds. The price of the pony is p dollars and jack also has pay 25% diamond pony tax. H
Leona [35]

Answer:

5/4 P dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

price of pony =  P

Tax which is to added in the total price of pony = 25% of pony price

so, now total price of pony including its tax = P + 25%P

                                                                        =  P + 25/100 P

                                                                        =  P + 1/4 P

                                                                        = 5/4 P dollars

                                                                        =  1.25 P dollars
