Answer:
No, David's answer does not seem reasonable.
Let x= original purchase amount
25x = $10.25, so solve for x by dividing both sides by .25, and you get x = $41.
If the shirt was $18, the shorts must have been $41-$18 = $23 NOT $41.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the time to complete a standardized exam is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.
P(completing exam before 1 hour)
= P(less than an hour) = P(X<60)
=P(Z<
)
=0.5-0.34=0.16
i.e. 16% of students completed the standardized exam.
There is a total of 66 socks on the floor the chance of picking up a red sock is 30 in 66 which is equal to a 45% chance. After picking up one sock the chances of getting another red sock is 29 in 65 which is around 44%. Now I believe your answer is 45% or around 30 socks. I hope this helped but please let me know.
Note: I am not 100% sure that this is the correct way to solve this problem. It is just my best attempt to help.
Keep in mind that every percentage can be made into a decimal. 12% = 0.12 because 12% is also 12/100 as a fraction.
Since a percentage is the original number multiplied by the percent, you can solve this problem by dividing the number given by the percent. Be sure to turn the percent into a decimal to make it easier. Your work should look like this:
12% = 0.12
1,000 / 0.12 = 8,333.33
That is the first step. How you have to finish the problem and find what 88% is. To do this, you can simply multiply 88%, or 0.88, times the answer you get in the first part. Your work should look like this:
88% = 0.88
0.88 * 8,333.33 = 7,333.33
Now to check your work, you can add 7,333.33 and 1,000 to see if it equal the total of 8,333.33
7,333.33 + 1,000 = 8,333.3
Since it is equal, this is your answer.
