1/2 = 0.5...to turn to a percent, multiply by 100.
0.5 x 100 = 50%
Answer:
a. 24
b. 2
c. 0.0833 = 8.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
The first "slot" of person to arrive has 4 possibilities, then the second "slot" will have 3 possibilities, as one has already arrived, then the third "slot" has 2 possibilities, and the fourth "slot" has just 1 possibility.
So, multiplying all these combinations, we have 4*3*2*1 = 24 possible ways they can arrive
b.
If the first and the last person are already "locked", we just have possibilities for the second and third person. The second will have 2 possibilities (Sergio or Tyrone), and the third will have only 1 (the person that wasn't the second between Sergio and Tyrone). So, the number of possibilities is 2*1 = 2
c.
If we have 2 cases where Dawn is first and Jim is last, from a total of 24 possible cases, the probability is 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833 = 8.33%
The answer is D. Hope this helps
Answer: 55x + 75 = 350; 5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
What we know:
- A flat fee is $75
- John charges $55 an hour
- The total charge is $350
We need to write an equation to find how many hours John works.
<em>x </em>will represent hours worked.
55x + 75 = 350
We now need to solve for x.
Subtract 75 from both sides.
55x + 75 - 75 = 350 - 75
Simplify.
55x = 275
Divide 55 from both sides.
55x/55 = 275/55
Simplify.
x = 5
John worked 5 hours.
To check our work, we just plug in our x value!
55(5) + 75
275 + 75 = 350
