The last one is not necessarily true
Answer:
1. $0.99
2. $1.98
Step-by-step explanation:
1. From the question we have
Cost of box = $2.48
Selling price = $1.49
That is the box is discounted from $2.48 to $1.49
Therefore, amount saved = $2.48 - $1.49 = $0.99
2. The amount saved from buying a second box is hence;
2 × $0.99 = $1.98
Hence, as the number of boxes bought increases, the amount saved increases
The answer is 0.04444... or 2/45. Whichever is more useful to you.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply,
y(x - 8) = x +3
yx - 8y = x + 3
yx - 8y -x = 3
yx - x = 3 + 8y
(y - 1)x = 3 +8y

Probability =
(number of possible ways to succeed)
divided by
(total number of possible outcomes) .
Number of ways to succeed = 2 (pick the 'A' or the 'L')
Total number of possible outcomes = 5 (the cards on the table) .
Probability of success = 2/5 = 40% .
