What if we draw three socks from the box instead. what is the probability that we draw a matching pair? (having all three socks
frutty [35]

There is a chance of 1/16*1/15 that she gets the specific socks pair according to laws of probability and the counting principle but thats not how it will work over here.

As we should be guaranteed that she gets the number of socks she obviously must take out around 9 socks as we are taking the worst case scenario where all the socks that come out are the different ones so the ninth sock must match any of the others.

But if we draw three socks obviously the probability is 1/16*1/15*13/14 as we dont want the third one to be same. We can multiply the answer by 3 as it can be in three different orders.

Manny makes the following purchases at the store:
Anna [14]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

He paid the correct amount.

Explanation:

First we find the subtotal of Manny's items:

32.65+3(14.89)+39.99 = 32.65+44.67+39.99 = 117.31

Next, we calculate the discount. If he gets 10% off, this means he pays 100%-10% = 90% of the total. 90% = 90/100 = 0.9:

0.9(117.31) = 105.579

Next we calculate the tax. Since tax is 8%, this means he pays 100% of his subtotal after discount plus the 8% tax; 100%+8% = 108%; 108% = 108/100 = 1.08:

1.08(105.579) = 114.02532 ≈ 114.03

Since this is what he paid, he paid the correct amount.
