Answer:

The probability is 2/5 that a $20 bill will be drawn from the wallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 total bills in the wallet (5 $5, 7 $10, and 8 $20, 5+7+8=20). So if the finder and returner of the wallet was to be given one of the bills drawn from the wallet there would be an 8/20 chance the owner of the wallet would pull a 20. That's because there are 20 total bills in the wallet and 8 of them are $20.  

Simplifying 8/20... 8/20= 4/10= 2/5.

So, there is a 2/5 chance that a $20 bill will be pulled out of the wallet.

Hope this helps!

Illusion [34]

Answer:  662.50 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

If she doesn't sell a single thing, she still earns the base weekly salary of $310. This is the smallest amount she can earn per week.

If she does make sales, then she'll earn an additional 0.075x dollars where x is the amount of sales made (the total value of the merchandise). The 0.075 is the decimal form of 7.5%

In total, she makes 0.075x+310 dollars per week. In this case, she sold x = 4700 dollars worth of goods, which means,

0.075x+310 = 0.075*4700+310 = 662.50

She earned 662.50 dollars for that week.
