Answer:
About 41.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Given:</em>
<em>A bowl has 8 green grapes and 15 red grapes. Henry randomly chooses a grape, eats it, and then chooses another grape.</em>
<em>To Find:</em>
<em>What is the probability that both grapes are red?</em>
<em>Answer choices:</em>
<em>about 39.7%</em>
<em>about 41.5%</em>
<em>about 42.5%</em>
<em>about 44.5%</em>
<em>Solution:</em>
<em>Since, there are 8 green grapes and 15 red grapes, the total number of grapes is 23 .</em>
<em>As the red grapes are 15..</em>
<em>Thus,</em>
<em>The probability of choosing a red grape the first time is 15/23.</em>
<em>Because out of the total 23 grapes only 15 were red grape.</em>
<em>The probability of choosing the red grape the second time will be 14/22. Because the number of red grapes has already decreased by one and so is the total number of grapes after first choice</em>
<em>Hence, the probability of choosing or eating two red grapes will be :</em>
<em>15/23×14/22</em>
<em>=105/253</em>
<em>=0.415</em>
<em>= 41.5%</em>
<em>Therefore, the probability that both grapes are red is about 41.5%</em>

Total Area = 342.5 square meters</h3><h3>
Total Cost = 138 pounds</h3>
=============================================================
Work Shown:
Break the figure up as shown by the dashed lines. Think of cutting along those lines to form 3 separate figures. The trapezoid on the left has area
A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 5*(11+12)/2
A = 57.5
The rectangle in the middle has area
A = L*W
A = 12*15
A = 180
The trapezoid on the right has area
A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 10*(12+9)/2
A = 105
Overall, the entire figure has area of 57.5+180+105 = <u>342.5 square meters</u>
1 can costs £6 and it covers 15 square meters. We need to cover 342.5 square meters
342.5/15 = 22.8333333333333 approximately
Round up to the nearest whole number to get 23
We need 23 cans to be able to paint 342.5 square meters or more
Note that 22 cans won't be enough because 22*15 = 330 is short of 342.5
While 23 cans is more than enough since 23*15 = 345. It's better to have leftovers than come up short.
Since each can costs £6 and we need 23 of them, the total cost would then come to 6*23 = <u>138 pounds</u>
