$157.50 would be the amount that you earn in interest
What you would do is simply plug in 8 where y is and solve.
5(8)=3478-3c -Times 5 by 8
40=3478-3c -Add 3c to the opposite side of the equal sign
40+3c=3478 -Subtract 40 from the opposite side of the equal sign
3c=3438 -Divide equation by 3
c=1146
Hope this helps! :)

ninths=1/9
1/3 is equal to 3/9.
so (1/9)*3 = 3/9
Answer:
a) There is a 66.7% chance that you were given box 1
b) There is a 80% chance that you were given box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, we need to note that there is a 1/10 chance of getting a defective bulb with box 1 and a 1/20 chance in box 2.
a) To find the answer to this, find the probability of getting a defective bulb for each box. Since there is only one bulb pulled in this example, we just use the base numbers given.
Box 1 = 1/10
Box 2 = 1/2
From this we can see that Box 1 is twice as likely that you get a defective bulb. As a result, the percentage chance would be 2/3 or 66.7%
b) For this answer, we need to square each of the probabilities in order to get the probability of getting a defective one twice.
Box 1 = 1/10^2 = 1/100
Box 2 = 1/20^2 = 1/400
As a result, Box 1 is four times more likely. This means that it would be a 4/5 chance and have a probability of 80%
