Mathematics

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees = 7 + 9 = 16

Probability of a man being chosen first to be promoted = 9/16

Probability of the second choice is still a man for promotion = 8/15

Why 8/15?

The number of men left who are eligible for promotion after the 1st man was chosen for promotion is 9 - 1 = 8

The total number of people left after the 1st person is chosen for promotion that are eligible for promotion is 16 - 1 = 15

Hence Probability of choosing 2 men for promotion = 9/16 x 8/15 = 3/10

The graph below shows the total cost for lunch, c, when Will and his friends buy a large salad to share and several slices of pi
Helga [31]

Answer:

2.50 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Will and his friends buy a large salad to share and several slices of pizza, p.

The graph given shows the total cost for lunch, c and slices of pizza,p.

p is marked horizontally, and c vertically.

Observing the points marked we find that for every increase of one slice of pizza, the cost i.e. c on vertical line increases by 0.50 times vertical grid.

Since each grid equals 5 dollars vertically, we find 1/2 grid increase is equal to increase of 1/2(5 ) =2.50 dollars.

Thus for increase of one slice of pizza, 2.50 dollars cost is increased.
