Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can estimate* that the total price including tax of the game will be less than ...

  $43.31 +10% of 43.31 = $43.31 +4.33 = $47.61

Todd easily has enough to pay for the game, including tax.

_____

You can work this more exactly a couple of ways.

  1. Price + tax = 1.085×$43.31 = $46.99 . . . less than Todd's budget

  2. Most Todd can afford: $55.50/1.085 = $51.15 . . . more than the game price

_____

* For estimating purposes, we like to use numbers that are easy to compute with. 10% is one such number, as it only requires moving the decimal point.

kolezko [41]

The probability that both marbles chosen from the bag will be yellow is 3/14.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability determines the odds that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that both marbles chosen from the bag will be yellow = (number of yellow marbles / total number of marbles) x (number of yellow marbles - 1/ total number of marbles - 1)

4/8 x 3/7 = 3/14
