So, let's establish some variables:

P = Peter
M = Malco = P + 42


Now let us establish an equation to find for P:
268 = P + P + 42
268 = 2P + 42
268 - 42 = 2P
226 = 2P
226 / 2 = P
113 = P


Now to find for M:
P + M = 268
113 + M = 268
M = 268 - 113
M = 155


Answer:
Peter = 113 pounds
Malco = 155 pounds




Hope it helped,

g At a certain gas station, 30% of all customers use the restroom. What is the probability that, out of the next 10 customers, (
Kruka [31]

Answer:

P(x=4) = 0.200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n=10 --- selected customers

x = 4 --- those that are expected to use the restroom

p =30\% = 0.30 --- proportion that uses the restroom

Required

P(x = 4)

The question illustrates binomial probability and the formula is:

P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

So, we have:

P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (1 - 0.30)^{10 - 4}

P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6

P(x=4) = 210* (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6

P(x=4) = 0.200
