Answer:

2/5

Explanation:

There are 5+7+8 = 20 total bills.

Out of these, 8 are twenty-dollar bills.

The probability of choosing 1 twenty-dollar bill is then 8/20, which simplifies to 2/5.

The formula for probability is \frac{number of ideal outcomes}{number of possible outcomes}. Because there are 8 $20 bills, there are 8 ideal outcomes and 20 possible outcomes. THis gives us \frac{8}{20} which can be simplified to \frac{2}{5}.

The answer is 2/5 or 0.4 or 40%.

Tcecarenko [31]

ok well you would set up an equation 7miles/50 mins=xmiles/75mins then you would cross multiply 7*75=50x

then you simplify 525=50x

then divide both sides by 50 and you end up with 10.5

so she would run 10.5 miles in 75 minutes

which expressions represents a 20% discount off the price of an item that originally cost D dollars ​
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

D - (D/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's imagine that D equals 100 dollars -

Well, we know that to get 20% of an amount, we need to divide the amount by five. So let's do that -

100 / 5 = 20

We now know that 20% of 100 dollars is equal to 20 dollars. We have now finished the first part. On to the second part.

We now need to take away 20% of 100 dollars off of 100 dollars - this is the price of the item after the discount.

100 - 20 = 80 dollars.

We now fit in D instead of 100 dollars -

D - (D/5)
