Answer:
The probability of selecting two democrats is 1/380
Step-by-step explanation:
- Probability is the branch of mathematics that deals with numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur.
- Probability of an event = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.
Here we are given the people as,
8 democrats, 8 republicans and 6 independent.
So total number of people are: 8+6+6=20
Probability of choosing first democrat = 1/20
Probability of choosing first democrat = 1/19
Thus P( two democrats in succession ) = 1/20 ×1/19
= 1/380

Answer:
$17.64
Step-by-step explanation:
$15.50 and $5.50
with 20% off
and 5% sales tax.
take the 20% first.
(15.50 + 5.50) * ( 100 - 20) % = 21 *0.8 = $16.80
now add the tax
0.05 * 16.80 + 16.80 = $17.64
Hi there!
The correct answer is 6.25 times.
This is how you get there:
1) First off, you are going to need to have the same unit (either cm or mm). I used millimeters for this problem. 25cm=250mm
2) This next part is very easy to get wrong. You need to figure out what you are dividing, and by what. Simply look at the problem. <span><em>"How much longer is the guinea pig than her fish?" </em>This shows what numbers you should be getting. The guinea pig is 250mm long, where the fish is only 40. This means that her guinea pig should be larger. 250÷40=6.25
If you did this problem the other way, you would've ended up with .16. If you put the sizes into perspective, you will notice that this is highly unlikely.
I hope that I have been able to simplify this problem for you!

Assuming both of those fractions are negative, the larger one would be -2/3
So <
