Well I'm doing it an easy way but 50% or half of 698 is about 350.

475 is slightly above 350 so the answer would be 68%

Anita purchased a couch that was priced at $700. She will also have to pay 6% sales tax. How much will she pay in total for the

Zolol [24]

Answer:

$742

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to figure out what 6% of 700 dollars is and then add that to 700. The easiest way to find the percentage of a number is to set it up in the equation:

6/100 = x/700 where 6 is the percentage of 700 (out of 100 because you can only get up to 100 percent in this case) and x is 6 percent of 700. when you cross multiply, you get 100x = 4200. Then you divide both sides by 100 to get x by itself. This will give you x = 42 Add this to 700 for 742 as the total amount that will be paid. Sorry if this first half was a little confusing

Honestly, the most intelligent solution would be to light the candle first, since it has a longer duration and then I can light the lamp, and then I can light the newspaper. Then, I will use the newspaper to light the fire.

All the fourth-graders in a certain elementary school took a standardized test. A total of 85% of the students were found to be

Aneli [31]

Answer:

There is a 2% probability that the student is proficient in neither reading nor mathematics.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

A is the probability that a student is proficient in reading

B is the probability that a student is proficient in mathematics.

C is the probability that a student is proficient in neither reading nor mathematics.

We have that:

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

In which a is the probability that a student is proficient in reading but not mathematics and $A \cap B$ is the probability that a student is proficient in both reading and mathematics.

By the same logic, we have that:

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

Either a student in proficient in at least one of reading or mathematics, or a student is proficient in neither of those. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$(A \cup B) + C = 1$

In which

$(A \cup B) = a + b + (A \cap B)$

65% were found to be proficient in both reading and mathematics.

This means that $A \cap B = 0.65$

78% were found to be proficient in mathematics

This means that $B = 0.78$

$B = b + (A \cap B)$

$0.78 = b + 0.65$

$b = 0.13$

85% of the students were found to be proficient in reading

This means that $A = 0.85$

$A = a + (A \cap B)$

$0.85 = a + 0.65$

$a = 0.20$

Proficient in at least one:

$(A \cup B) = a + b + (A \cap B) = 0.20 + 0.13 + 0.65 = 0.98$

What is the probability that the student is proficient in neither reading nor mathematics?

$(A \cup B) + C = 1$

$C = 1 - (A \cup B) = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02$

There is a 2% probability that the student is proficient in neither reading nor mathematics.
