Answer is C).
One way to find the answer is to multiply the $54 by .30 (which is 30%converted to a decimal). Doing this will give you what 30% of $54 is.
This gives you 16.2
Since the question is asking what 30% off the price is, subtract the 16.2 from the $54.
ANSWER
3) b
EXPLANATION
Given that:

and

Recall that the sine and cosine functions are equal for complementary angles.
This implies that,


The "relative frequency" is
(number of times a blue marble came out)
divided by
(total number of trials before everybody got bored and quit) .
-- The relative frequency of blue was (20/60) = (33 and 1/3) % .
(Even though 38.5% of the marbles in the jar are blue,
they didn't get picked that often.)
-- The relative frequency of green was (18/60) = 30 % .
(Even though only 26.9% of the marbles in the jar are green,
they got picked more often than that.)
-- The relative frequency of red was (22/60) = (36 and 2/3) % .
(Even though 42.3% of the marbles in the jar are red,
they didn't get picked that often.)
