Answer:

The probability that it is a cookie is   \frac{2}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability  that it is a cookie if he chooses one at random;

probability = required outcome / all possible outcome

The all possible outcome will be gotten by adding up all the snacks. that is;

required outcome = 5 + 8 + 2 = 15

The required outcome is the snack he chooses, that is; required outcome = 2

Probability (of choosing a cookie) =required outcome / all possible outcome

                                                         =\frac{2}{15}

Therefore, the probability that it is a cookie is   \frac{2}{15}

The bike store marks up the wholesale cost of all of the bikes they sell by 30%. Andre wants to buy a bike that has a price tag
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$96.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

markup = 30%

cost price= $125

let the cost price before markup be x

125-30/100*x= x

125-0.3x= x

125= x+0.3x

125= 1.3x

divide both sides by 1.3

x= 125/1.3

x= $96.15

Hence the price before markup is $96.15

Answer:

For number 2, its A. For number 1, its C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For both equations, you just set it equal to to each other because alternate interior angles are equivalent.

2) The equation would be

     7x+3=6x+12

   Then solve.

1) The equation would be

     14x-3=95

   Then solve.

To find the distance across a lake, a
Nesterboy [21]

The distance across the lake, a is 611 yards

<h3>Right angle triangle:</h3>

Right angle triangle have one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the side a can be found using trigonometric ratios,

Therefore,

tan 47° = opposite / adjacent

tan 47° = a / 570

cross multiply

a = 570 tan 47°

a = 570 × 1.07236871002

a = 611.250164714

a = 611 yards
