$2.00 in quarters is 8 quarters, since 1 quarter is 25 cents.
Out of those 8 quarters, only 3 are state quarters.
That means 5 are not state quarters.
So there is a 5/8 chance that the first quarter he takes out is not a state quarter.
If it is not, then there are 3 state quarters and 7 total quarters left, which means a 4/7 chance that the second quarter is not a state quarter.
To find the probability of both of these quarters not being state quarters, multiply the probabilities by each other.
4/7 • 5/8 = 20/56
Now simplify:
20/56 = 10/28 = 5/14
5/14 is in simplest form, so it is the answer.
So the answer is D. 5/14.

Contains the x intercept of 4x-y=8 and the point (-4,3)
nydimaria [60]
<span>1.       </span><span>4x –y = 8, the point (-4, 3)
Let’s say y = 0
=> 4x – 8
=> 4x / 4 = 8 /4
=> x = 2
So the point is (2 , 0).
Now, we have 2 forms, the (2,0) and the (-4, 3)
=> (y2 – y1)(x2 – x1) = m
=> m = (0 - 3)(2-(-4))
=> m = (0 - 3)(2+4)
=>  m = (-3)(6)
=> m = -1/2
Thus,
y = -1/2x + a
=> 0 = -1 + a so a = 1
y = -x/2 + 1</span>

A company has $6582 to give out in bonuses. An amount is to be given out equally to each of the 32 employees.
expeople1 [14]

A) His estimate is incorrect, since he has increased a figure to the amount that each employee would receive.

B) Rounded to the nearest dollar, each employee would receive $ 209.

Since a company has $ 6582 to give out in bonuses, and an amount is to be given out equally to each of the 32 employees, and A) a manager, Jake reasoned that since 32 goes into 64 twice, each employee will get about $ 2000 , to determine if his estimate is correct, and B) determine how much will each employee receive, rounded to the nearest whole dollar, the following calculations must be performed:

A)

  • 2000 x 32 = 64000
  • 200 x 32 = 6400

Therefore, his estimate is incorrect, since he has increased a figure to the amount that each employee would receive.

B)

  • 6582/32 = X
  • 208.68 = X

Therefore, rounded to the nearest dollar, each employee would receive $ 209.

Inside the root is 50-1

50-1 = 49

You would remain with root 49 but, if you calculate the square root the answer would be 7 because...

7•7 = 49


^ So, the answer is 7
