Answer:

1)28.8%

2)28.8%

3)43.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

1))Probability of wining both = Probability that first contract is won* Probability that second contract is won = 0.4 * 0.72 = 0.288 = 28.8%

2)Probability of losing = 1 - Probability of winning

Probability that they will lose both contracts = Probability that first contract is lost * Probability that second contract is lost = (1 - 40/100) * (1 - 54/100) = 0.276 = 27.6%

3)Probability that any one is won = 1 - both contracts are won - both contracts are lost = 1 - 0.276 - 0.288 = 0.436 = 43.6%

A television regularly costs $180, but it is on sale for 40% off. There is a 5% sales tax on the sale price. How much does the t
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$113.4

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is 40% off then it is 100-40 = 60% of original price.

So we do 180$ * .6 = $108 before tax.

To add on tax we do: 100 + 5 = 105% of that price.

So we do: $108 * 1.05 = $113.4 after discount and tax.
