Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike is at the shop for school supplies. He sees some pencils he wants to buy. He sees that if he buys twelve of the same item, the store will take off $8. How much will twelve pencils cost at the store if one pencil is $5.99?

Equation: 12x-8

12x-8 =

12(5.99) - 8 =

71.88 - 8 =

$63.88

If the probability of observing at least one car on a highway during any 20-minute time interval is 609/625, then the probability of observing at least one car during any 5-minute time interval is 609/2500

Given The probability of observing at least one car on a highway during any 20 minute time interval is 609/625.

We have to find the probability of observing at least one car during any 5 minute time interval.

Probability is the likeliness of happening an event among all the events possible. It is calculated as number/ total number. Its value lies between 0 and 1.

Probability during 20 minutes interval=609/625

Probability during 1 minute interval=609/625*20

=609/12500

Probability during 5 minute interval=(609/12500)*5

=609/2500

Hence the probability of observing at least one car during any 5 minute time interval is 609/2500.

A housepainter mixed 5 gal of blue paint with every 9 gal of yellow paint in order to make a green paint. What is
ella [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

5:9 is the original ratio.

we know that anything times 5 would have the ones place of either 5 or 0 so we can eliminate c and d. Then we test out the other two choices.

25/5=5

45/9=5

A is correct.

15/5=3

45/9=5

Option B is incorrect.

so, the ratio is 25:45

The answer is A!

Two of your friends go bowling. One friend rents a pair of bowling shoes for $3 and bowls 3 games. The other friend brings his o
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: The cost of each game is $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the equations for each friend:

Friend 1:

Pays $3 for the shoes, and plays 3 games, then if X is the cost of each game, Friend 1 pays a total of:

$3 + 3*X

Friend 2:

This friend buys a soda for $0.50, and he plays 4 games, remember that the cost of each game was X. then this friend pays:

$0.50 + 4*X

And we know that both friends pay the exact same amount, then we can write:

$3 + 3*X = $0.50 + 4*X

And solve this for X.

We need to isolate X, then we can move all the terms with X to the right, and all the terms without X to the left:

$3 - $0.50 = 4*X - 3*X

$2.50 = (4 - 3)*X = X

This means the cost of each game is $2.50

What is the area of the circle?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

363

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of a circle

A = πr^2

Where r = radius

The circle has a given radius of 11

To find the area of the circle we simply substitute r in the formula with the value of the radius (11)

( Also note that the question says to use 3 for π )

A = πr^2

π = 3

r = 11

Substitute values in formula

A = (3)(11)^2

11^2 = 121

A = 121(3)

121(3) = 363

A = 363
