15 pigs and 40 sheep
10 cows is equivalent to 2 parts of the ratio, hence
= 5 ← 1 part of the ratio, hence
8 parts = 8 × 5 = 40 ← number of sheep
3 parts = 3 × 5 = 15 ← number of pigs

Answer:
Discounted price= $40.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
A store is running a sale where all of the items are 35% off the normal price. The price of a video game you want to buy is normally $61.97.
<u>To calculate the discounted selling price, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Discounted price= selling price*(1 - discount rate)
Discounted price= 61.97*(1 - 0.35)
Discounted price= $40.28
<h3>
Answer: Choice B) 3:1</h3>
=============================================================
Explanation:
Consider a very small town of only 4 people.
If 1 person bikes to work, then 1/4 = 0.25 = 25% of the population commutes by bicycle. We see that the remaining 4-1 = 3 people don't travel by bike.
The odds against selecting someone who uses their bike to get to work is 3:1 which is why the answer is choice B
We list the number of people we don't want first, and then the number of people we do want (those who use a bike). A colon separates the two values to form the odds ratio.
We can say "3:1" as "3 to 1". It means we're 3 times more likely to select someone we don't want vs someone we do want. The odds are against the bike person which is why the value we don't want is listed first.
In contrast, if your teacher asked "what are the odds in favor of selecting someone who commutes by bicycle?" then the answer would be 1:3. We simply swap the positions of what we set up earlier.
