Annie’s change purse contained 5 quarters 8 dimes and 8 nickels if Annie chose 2 coin randomly without replacing them in her pur
Bogdan [553]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

2/15

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 8C2 = 28 ways to choose 2 dimes from the 8 dimes in Annie's purse. There are 21C2 = 210 ways to choose 2 coins from the 21 coins in Annie's purse.

Of the 210 ways to choose 2 coins, 28 of the choices will result in 2 dimes being chosen. The probability of choosing 2 dimes is 28/210 = 2/15.

_____

<em>Comment on nCk</em>

The number of ways to choose k objects from n, when order does not matter, is ...

... n!/(k!(n -k)!)

... 8C2 = 8·7/(2·1) = 28

... 21C2 = 21·20/(2·1) = 210

Four friends went out to breakfast. Two of them ordered omelets for $5.49 each, and the other two ordered French toast for $6.29
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Jill would pay 5.945

Reason:

You add up 5.49 and 6.29 and get 11.78. Then you would divide that by 4 and get 2.945. If Jill were to pay the tip then they would have to pay three dollars would add three dollars onto their 2.945 and they would have to pay 5.945 instead of 2.945.

8 6/8 = 70/8 ; 2 2/5 = 12/5

Now, we have : 70/8 : 12/5
