Let p be the prize of a pen and m the prize of a mechanical pencils. If you buy six pens and one mechanical pencil, you spend 6p+m. We know that this equals 9, because you get 1$ change from a 10$ bill.
Similarly, if you buy four pens and two mechanical pencils, you spend 4p+2m, which is 8$, because now you get a $2 change. Put these equation together in a system:
Now, if you multiply the first equation by 2, the system becomes
Subtract the second equation from the first:
Plug this value into the first equation to get

03%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this situation Mickey should have drew first 7 cards that are not diamond and then on the 8th attempt she should draw an ace.
Let A be the event of drawing 7 cards which are not diamond and B the event of drawing an ace card. therefore required probability is P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B)
Now, there are 13 diamonds and 39 other cards. Hence,
P(A)=()⁷=0.1335
After drawing 7 non-diamond cards, the 8th card must be a diamond.Hence,
P(B)==0.25
Hence, P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B)=0.1335*0.25=0.033(approximately 0.03,i.e. 3%)
Therefore probability that Mickey will draw her first diamond on the 8th
attempt is 3%
