Answer:

$16

Step-by-step explanation:

20% is the same as 0.2 in decimal form, since its decreasing you multiply $20 by 0.8 to get 16. If it was increasing, it would be 20 times 1.2

Answer:

$16.00

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Since the price decreases by 20%, we have to first figure out what 20% of $20 is:

20% of $20 = 4

2) Next, we just have to subtract 4 from 20 so we can find out how much the cost is:

$20.00 - 4 = $16.00

Therefore, the answer is $16.00.

Hope this helps! :D

Find the probability that the hitter makes 10 outs in 10 consecutive at-bats, assuming at-bats are independent events. Hint:

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

0.037

Step-by-step explanation:

If the hitter makes an out 72% of the time, then the probabilty that he makes hit in 1 at-bat is $p=0.72$ and the probabilty that he doesn't make hit in 1 at-bat is $q=1-p=1-0.72=0.28.$

The probability that the hitter makes 10 outs in 10 consecutive at-bats, assuming at-bats are independent events is

$P=p^{10}=(0.72)^{10}\approx 0.037.$
