What is the probability that 2 randomly selected months have 31 days?
aniked [119]

Answer:

31.8%

Step-by-step explanation:There are 7 months that have 31 days so,

The odds the first selected month has 31 days is 7/12

The next month there are only 6 months left with 31 days of only 11 months to choose from

so the odds for the second are 6/11

To calculate the odds they BOTH  have 31 months you multiply the two odds:

(7/12) x (6/11) = 42/132 = .318 so 31.8%

Complete Question

Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar. Let x = the number of packages of pasta and y = the number of jars of pasta sauce. One package of pasta is the right amount to go with one jar of pasta sauce. What is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the number of packages of pasta

y = the number of jars of pasta sauce.

He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack. Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar.

x + 1.5y ≤ 20....... Equation 1

x = 20 - 1.5y

x × $1 + y × $3 = $36

x + 3y ≤ 36..... Equation 2

20 - 1.5y + 3y = 36

-1.5y + 3y = 36 - 20

1.5y = 16

y = 16/1.5

y = 8

And x = 8

Therefore,

Eight is the best numbers of packages of pasta and jars of pasta sauce to buy for the food pantry.
