Mary's backpack: 25% of 65 = 0.25 * 65 = 16.25; 65 - 16.25 = $48.75
Roberto's backpack: 30% of 75 = 0.3 * 75 = 22.5; 75 - 22.5 = $52.5
Mary's backpack was a better buy because it was cheaper.
I'm not sure if those numbers are negatives or thats just a hyphen but:
N(-5/8)=-0.40
Division is always the opposite of multiplication
-0.40/(-5/8)=0.64
N=0.64
Using it's concept, it is found that the experimental probability that the first vehicle rented today will be a pickup truck is of 0.5 = 50%.
<h3>What is a probability?</h3>
A probability is given by the<u> number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>. For an experimental probability, these number of outcomes are taken from previous trials.
In this problem, we have that out of 4 vehicles, 2 are pickup trucks, hence the experimental probability is given by:
p = 2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5.

Answer:
Bonds: $42,000
Certificates of deposit: $41,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Total invested = Amount in bonds + Amount in CDs
Amount in bonds = Amount in CDs + 1000
Let the amount in bonds = B and the amount in CDs = C
1. 83,000 = B + C
2. B = C+1000
Since the above expression (#2) defines B, you can substitute it for the B in the first equation (#1).
83,000 = C + 1000 + C
Now, you can solve for C.
83,000 = 2C + 1000
82,000 = 2C
41,000 = C
You know that the amount invested in bonds is $1000 greater than the amount invested in CDs, so add $1000 to C and you find B, $42,000.
