14/20=0.7 or 70% are soft-centred. If we take two candies we have three possibilities associated with probabilities:
Both soft-centred: 0.7²=0.49 or 49%
Both hard-centred: 0.3²=0.09 or 9%
One of each: 2×0.3×0.7=0.42 or 42%. 49+9+42=100%. So these are all the possible outcomes.

Steve got his car fixed for $557. After taxes it cost him $594. What was the tax rate to the nearest %?
I am Lyosha [343]
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us 
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427

When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.

To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7

So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%

Let a, n, b, r, and k be integers. If a = nb+r and k|a and k|b, then k|r
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Proof for k|r

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a, n, b, r and k are integers.

Also,

a = nb + r

Since k divides a and b, we can write,

a = rk and b = sk, where r and s are integers.

Now, we have to prove that k divides r as well that is k|r

Putting value of a and b in the equation, we get:

rk = n(sk) + r\\r = rk - nsk\\r = (r-sn)k

Since, (r-sn) is an integer, k divides r.
