Answer:

option c) $ 2.96

Step-by-step explanation:

15% = 15 /100 = 0.15

Let last year's price = $ x

x + 15% of x = $ 3.40

x + 0.15*x = 3.40

x + 0.15x = 3.40    {Add like terms}

1.15x = 3.40   {Divide both sides by 1.15}

1.15x/1.15=3.40/1.15

x = 2.956

Last year's price = $ 2.96

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: 1. D) 30

2. A) 8

3. B) 4/15

4. A)  2/9

5.D) 64%

Step-by-step explanation:    

1. Since, here the tokens from a bag containing 10 blue tokens, 8 green tokens, and 12 red tokens. The first draw is a green token.

Thus, the total token = 10 blue tokens+ 8 green tokens+ 12 red tokens = 30 token

Therefore, If the first draw is a green token, Then total outcomes that will possible = 30.

2. Since, getting green is an event with 8 favorable outcomes.

Therefore,  If the first draw is a green token, Then total favorable outcomes that will possible = 8.

3. The possibility of getting green in first drawn, P(G) = \frac{8_C_1}{30_C_1}

P(G) =  \frac{8}{30} = \frac{4}{15}

4. Here, Number of red socks= 5

Number of white socks = 2 and Number of  blue socks=3

Therefore total socks = 10

⇒ Probability of picking a pair of red socks,

P(R)= \frac{5_C_2}{10_C_2} = \frac{10}{45}

⇒ P(R)= 2/9

5. Since, here coin is flipped 50 times and lands on heads 32 times.

Therefore, experimental probability that coin will land on heads on the next flip = (total times in which head appears/ total number of experiments) × 100 = (32/50)×100=64%

Since the angles are equal to each other, make the equations equal to each other.

4x - 36 = 3x + 10 and simplify

x - 36 = 10

x = 46
