Consider Laura and Kimiko as 1, then we have in total 7 students, which can be arranged in 7! ways.

For any of the 7! arrangements where Laura is to the left of Kimiko, there is another where Kimiko is to the left of Laura.

So there are 2*7! arrangements where Laura and Kimiko are next to each other.

In total there are 8! arrangements in a line (permutations) of the eight students.

So P(Laura is next to Kimiko)=\frac{2*7!}{8!}= \frac{2*7!}{8*7!}= \frac{2}{8}= \frac{1}{4}=0.25

Pleaseee Help me 20 pts
Simora [160]

Answer:

Tax is  C 4.12

Tip is  E 15.00

total =94.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax = bill * tax rate

      = 74.98 * 5.5%

      = 74.98 * .055

      = 4.1239

To the nearest cent = 4.12

Tip = bill * tip rate

      = 74.98 * 20%

       = 74.98 *.2

       = 14.996

 To the nearest cent = 15.00

The total bill is

Final = bill + tax+ tip

        = 74.98 + 4.12+15

       = 94.10

I need your help please I don’t understand this
Step2247 [10]
The answer is y = -5/7x + 4/7! The first step is to subtract the 5x so it’s on the other side of the equal sign. So now the equation is 7y = -5x + 4. Then divide each of them for 7

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The answer is Toni can buy 20 tee shirts for 140 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find out how many times 5 can go into 20

Next you see that 5 can go into 20, 4 times so you take the 35 and multiply 4 and you get 140 so you can buy 20 tee shirts for 140 dollars.
