Answer:

Total cost of Ticket = $96

Explanation:

Provided information,

Total number of people buying lottery ticket in a joint contribution = 10

Two people withdraw being short of funds, therefore people buying such ticket = 8

Revised share increase by $2.40 each.

Total increase = $2.40 \times 8 = $19.20

Just because 2 people withdraw, thus earlier contribution per person = $19.20/2 = $9.60

Therefore, total cost of ticket = $9.60 \times 10 = $96

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Yes, Hazel needs to pay extra $700

Explanation:

As per pre-existing duty rule, a person is obligated to perform his duty at the consideration agreed upon initially. Any modification to the contract is void.

Exceptions to this rule:

  • As per new contract, if the person undertaking his duty hires another person to perform the work so as to complete it in time, then modifications are valid and enforceable.
  • Modifications are valid in case of unforeseen contingencies like war, recession, change in economic conditions and strikes.

In this case, Hazel agreed to pay $700 extra. Under pre-existing duty rule, she is not required to pay Eugene extra $700 but since Eugene took additional help exception to the rule applies and Hazel is obligated to pay $700 extra.
