Answer:

The number of donuts bought is 4 while the number of cookies bought is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Joshua bought donuts and cookies. The cost of each donuts is $1.75 and the cost of each cookies is $1. He bought a total number 12 donuts and cookies altogether. But the number of donuts bought and the number of cookies bought is not given.

Let the number of donuts bought = a

Let the number of cookies bought = b

The total cost of the donuts and cookies bought = $15

The total number of donuts and cookies bought = 12

Therefore,

1.75a + 1b = 15....................................(i)

a + b = 12.............................................(ii)

b = 12 - a

Inserting the value of b in equation (i)

1.75a + 12 - a = 15

1.75a - a = 15 - 12

0.75a = 3

a = 3/0.75

a = 4

Inserting a in equation(ii)

4 + b = 12

b = 12 - 4

b = 8

<h3>What is the meaning of Probability ?</h3>

The range of probability lies between 0 to 1 , where 0 indicates uncertainty and 1 indicates certainty.

It is given that anna, becky, christina, debbie, and esther are the five candidates for student representative for the school board.

two students will be selected, and they will alternate attending the school board meetings.

all five students are equally well qualified, so the school superintendent decides to draw names at random.

probability he will choose debbie and esther as the two representatives = ?

Probability of chosing debbie is 1/5

Probability of choosing Esther is also 1/5

Either of them if chosen first the probability is 1/5

and the either of them chosen second the probability is 1/4

Probability that he will choose debbie and esther as the two representatives = (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20 .
