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

Soil sells for 8 1/4 cents per pound. How much would you save if you bought a 100- pound sack for $7.45?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

$0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

If the 100 pounds was bought separately (of course in real life you will probably not)

= 100 pounds x $0.0825/pound

= $8.25

As you can see it will cost more than if you buy a 100 pound sack.

Cost Difference = $8.25 - $7.45 = $0.80

That means you will save $0.80 from it.
