Answer: 5/9</h3>
As an approximate decimal, this is 0.5556 which converts to 55.56%
======================================================
Explanation:
Let's say there are 100 households (just for the sake of simplicity). We are told that 90% of them have answering machines. So that means 90 households have answering machines. In addition, 50 households have answering machines and call waiting. Those 50 households are part of the 90 mentioned previously.
We then select a house at random. Someone tells us (or we have some kind of prior knowledge) that whichever house is selected, they have an answering machine. We can ignore the 10 households that don't have an answering machine. Out of those 90 households, 50 have both features. So 50/90 = 5/9 is the probability of getting a household with both features.
The answer would be 1/2 or 50% if we didn't have the prior knowledge of the household having an answering machine. But with this prior knowledge, the conditions change and so does the probability.

You could also compute 0.50/0.90 to get the same answer.
Answer:
The card had 41.60 originally
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x 5.20 = 15.60
15.60 + 26.00 = 41.60
unless there is tax
The original expression is equal to 0 because anything multiplied by 0 is equal to 0. Solve inside the brackets for the possible answer choices to find what will equal 0.
Start with the first expression. Add 4 and negative 4 will become 0, and -1 times 0 is equal to 0. Let's solve for the others just to be sure.
In the second expression, solving inside the brackets gives you 8. -1 times 8 is equal to -8.
Adding 4 and negative 4 in the third expression leaves you with 0. But, 1 + 0 is equal to 1.
Adding negative 4 and negative 4 gives you the answer of -8, and -1 times -8 is equal to 8.
Your answer is the first expression, or A.
