Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a )
probability of a computer being ancient = .99
probability of a computer being cutting-edge =.01
probability of two selected computer being old
= .99 x .99
= .98 or 98%
b )
probability of 5 selected computers being old
= .99 x .99 x .99 x .99 x .99
= .95 or 95%
c )
probability that at least one of the five selected computers is cutting-edge
= 1 - probability of 5 selected computers being old
= 1 - .95
= .05
5 %
Answer:
She paid 9% of sales tax
Step-by-step explanation:
The sale price of diamond = $375
Let x be percent of sales tax
So, amount of tax = 
So, Amount including tax = 375+3.75x
We are given that Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings.

3.75x=408.75-375

x=9
Hence She paid 9% of sales tax
