Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Glen decides he only wants caramels and candy corn.  

p is the number of caramels Glen purchases.

Let q be the number of candy corns Glen purchases

Since price per pound caramel is 0.95 cost of caramel

=0.95p

Since price per pound candy corns is 0.79 cost of caramel

=0.79q

Total pounds = Glens bag weight = p+q =1.7

and total cost = 0.95p+0.79q = 1.48

Hence we can write the number of pounds of candy corn in two ways

q = 1.7-p and

q=\frac{1.48-0.95p}{0.79}

A survey asked people of different ages whether they get their news by reading the paper. What is the probability that a person
Bingel [31]

C. 60%

The probability that a person surveyed is 40 or older and gets the news by reading the paper is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In our case, we have to find the probability of a person getting their news by reading the paper. But we are given with a condition that the person must be 40 or older.

The survey is conducted among 80 people.

Number of people aged 40 or older = 40

No of people aged 40 or older and read paper = 24

Probability formula is the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

Probability of a person aged 40 or older reads a paper =

(No. of People aged 40 or older and read paper)/(No. of people aged 40 or older)

= 24/40

= 0.6

= 60%
