Answer:

<em>The cost of 15 potatoes is $7.50</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The potatoes are sold at a rate of $0.5 per potato.

1. Given Amanda can only spend $5 on potatoes at that price, she can buy at most $5 / 0.5 = 10 potatoes.

Amanda can buy at most 10 potatoes

2. Sam wants to buy 15 potatoes at that very same price. The cost of 15 potatoes is:

15 * $0.5 = $7.50

The cost of 15 potatoes is $7.50

maw [93]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{324632}$ probability of picking the winning combination

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Since the order is not important, the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Desired outcomes:

The correct five numbers from a set of 5. So

$D = C_{5,5} = \frac{5!}{5!0!} = 1$

Total outcomes:

Five numbers from a set of 35. So

$T = C_{35,5} = \frac{35!}{5!30!} = 324632$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{324632}$

$\frac{1}{324632}$ probability of picking the winning combination
