Given:
$184500 are to be divided between 2 people.
One person has 80% of what the other person has.
To find:
The amount each one receive in $.
Solution:
Let $x be the amount received by first person. Then,
Amount received by the second person = 80% of x
= 0.80x
Total amount = Amount received by first person + by second person
=
=
Total amount is 184500. So,
So, the amount received by the first person is $102,500.
So, the amount received by the second person is $82,000.
The probability of choosing a large red fish is 5/15 or 1/3
Answer: y-7 = 4(x+3), choice B
============================================
Point slope form is generally
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
we have m as the slope and (x1,y1) as the point this line goes through. In this case,
m = 4
(x1,y1) = (-3,7) so x1 = -3 and y1 = 7
So,
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y - 7 = 4(x - (-3))
y - 7 = 4(x + 3)
which is why choice B is the answer
This is a statistics problem on permutation and combination. To differentiate this, permutation involves on the arrangement in which order doesn't matter. For combination, order matters.
For example, if you arrange A, B and C, for permutation it could be AB, BA, CA, AC, BC and CB. But for combination, it would just be AB, AC and BC.
So, in this problem where he is asked to arrange 8 jars in which order doesn't matter. It is permutation. You can solve this just by calculator. The formula would be nPr, where n is the total number of items while r is the number of items to be sorted. Thus,
nPr = 10P8 = 1, 814,400
Thus, the answer is B.
