Answer:

The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=18

5x+9y=122

When you solve this system of equations, you get x=10 and y=8. Thus, 5*10, or 50, of the 122 right-handed students are female. Therefore, the probability that a right-handed student selected at random is female is

50/122

which to the nearest thousandth is 0.410.

Christmas candy and items are 80% off at Walgreens. Lacy got 3 rolls of wrapping paper originally priced at $4.99 each and a box
Maslowich

Answer:

A. $3.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so wrapping paper 4.99 she got three. So we would take 4.99 and subtract 80%. We would get 0.998. We multiply this by three because that's how many she got. After multiplying it's 2.994, rounded just 2.99. She payed 2.99 for wrapping paper. Now with the candy canes, we take 2.99 and subtract 80%. 0.59. Added we get 3.58, and we can go ahead and round that up to $3.59. Before tax she payed $3.59.

A retail store sells two types of shoes, sneakers and sandals. The store owner pays $8 for the sneakers and $14 for the sandals.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

134 sneakers and 66 sandals

Step-by-step explanation:

Sneakers= x, sandals= y

Profit rate:

  • sneakers: (10-2)/8= 25%
  • sandals: (17-14)/14= 21.4%

Sneakers are more profitable, so it should be maximized.

Cost:

8x+14y≤2000

x+y≤200

if we assume the maximum of 200 shoes stocked, then:

x= 200-y

8(200-y)+14y ≤ 2000

1600 - 8y +14y ≤ 2000

6y≤400

y≤66 and x=134 is the best option
