8 percent (C)

To find 1% you divide 4.50 by 100, which is 0.045.

Then you have to find what is added on.
4.86-4.50 is .36

Now you divide .36 by 0.045. An easier way to do this is 360 divided by 45. This equals 8.

Hope this helped

Ivanna is playing a game in which she spins a spinner with 6 equal-sized slices numbered 1 through 6. The spinner stops on a num
saul85 [17]

Answer:

The spinner has 6 equal-sized slices, so each slice has a 1/6 probability of showing up.

I guess that we want to find the expected value in one spin:

number 1: wins $1

number 2: wins $3

number 3: wins $5

number 4: wins $7

number 5: losses $8

number 6: loses $8

The expected value can be calculated as:

Ev = ∑xₙpₙ

where xₙ is the event and pₙ is the probability.

We know that the probability for all the events is 1/6, so we have:

Ev = ($1 + $3 + $5 + $7 - $8 - $8)*(1/6) = $0

So the expected value of this game is $0, wich implies that is a fair game.

Use substitutions to solve each system of equations.[y = 4x -6] [5x + 3y = 1]
boyakko [2]

y=4x-6.....(1)

5x+3y=1....(2)

substitute y=4x-6 into equation 2

5x+3(4x-6)=1

5x+12x-18=1

17x=19

x=1.12

substitute x=1.12 into equation 1

y=4(1.12)-6

y=4.48-6

y=-1.52

x=1.12,y=1.52
