Aaron bought 7/8 of a yard of fabric and it cost him $4.10. What does a full yard cost?

1 answer:

7 0

Divide 4.10 by 7 to get about 0.59 (round up because you can't get part of a penny) and that gives you 1/8 of a yard's price. Then multiply that by 8 to get a full yard for $4.72.

A city council consists of seven Democrats and five Republicans. If a committee of four people is selected, find the probability

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The probability of selecting two Democrats and two Republicans is 0.4242.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

A city council consists of seven Democrats and five Republicans.
A committee of four people is selected.

In mathematics, the procedure to select k items from n distinct items, without replacement, is known as combinations.

The formula to compute the combinations of k items from n is given by the formula:

${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!\times (n-k)!}$

Compute the number of ways to select four people as follows:

${12\choose 4}=\frac{12!}{4!\times (12-4)!}=495$

Compute the number of ways to selected two Democrats as follows:

${7\choose 2}=\frac{7!}{2!\times (7-2)!}=21$

Compute the number of ways to selected two Republicans as follows:

${5\choose 2}=\frac{5!}{2!\times (5-2)!}=10$

Then the probability of selecting two Democrats and two Republicans as follows:

$P(\text{2 Democrats and 2 Republicans})=\frac{21\times 10}{495}=0.4242$

Thus, the probability of selecting two Democrats and two Republicans is 0.4242.

Kaylin buys a greeting card for $3.79. she then buys 4 postcards that all cost the same amount. the total cost is $5.11. how muc

Pie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Greeting Card = 3.79

Total Cost = 5.11

Post cards = x

Equation

Total Cost = Greeting Card + 4x

Solution

Substitute the gives into the equation

5.11 = 3.79 + 4x Subtract 3.79 from both sides

5.11 - 3.79 = 3.79 - 3.79 + 4x Combine

1.32 = 4x Divide by 4

1.32/4 = 4x/4

x = 33

Each post card costs 0.33 dollars
