There are 6 pockets all together. You checked two of them and it wasn't
there. So you can forget about those 2, and now there are 4 pockets left.
The total number of ways for your next try is 4.
The number that will be successful is 1.
The probability of success on the next one is <em>1/4 = 25% .</em>
=======================================================
Another method of solution, somewhat more complex:
Total number of pockets = 6.
Amount of money missing = $10
First partial sum, i.e. sum of numbers
in the first part of the problem = 6 + 10 = 16.
Total number of pockets = 6
Current value of cargo pants on a fashion scale from 1 to 10 = -2.
Second partial sum = 6 - 2 = 4.
Probability = (second partial sum) / (first partial sum) = 4/16 = <em>25% </em>.
77/20 = 3.85 <== terminating decimal
Answer:
x ≈ 63.27
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan49° = 
= 
= 
( multiply both sides by 55 )
55 × tan49° = x , then
x ≈ 63.27 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
Avery needs to pay $14.84
Step-by-step explanation:
When there's a tax we need to sum the original value of the product with the tax's value. To find the amount of money Avery needs to pay in taxes we can apply a rule of three as shown below:
Where "x" is the tax value, and $14 represents 100%, since it's the value used to calculate the tax. We have:
The value to be paid is the product value plus the tax, therefore:
Avery needs to pay $14.84
None of them are correct.
