Answer:
For the pairs that satisfy that the sum is less than 7 we have:
(1,1) (2,1) (1,2) (3,1) (2,2) (1,3) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (5,1) (4.2) (3,3) (2,4) (1,5)
So we have a total of 15 pairs where the sum is less than 7
And for an odd sum we have the following pairs
(2,1) (1,2) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (6,2) (5,2) (4,3) (3,4) (2,5) (1,6) (6,3) (5,4) (4,5) (3,6) (6,5) (5,6)
A total of 18 pairs and we have 6 pairs who are in both cases for the sum less than 7 and the sum an odd number that represent the intersection and using the total probability rule we got:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case when a pair of dice is rolled we have the following sample pace for the outcomes:
(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)
(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)
(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)
(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)
(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)
(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)
We see 36 possible outcomes and we want to find how many of these pairs we got rolling an odd sum or a sum less than 7
For the pairs that satisfy that the sum is less than 7 we have:
(1,1) (2,1) (1,2) (3,1) (2,2) (1,3) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (5,1) (4.2) (3,3) (2,4) (1,5)
So we have a total of 15 pairs where the sum is less than 7
And for an odd sum we have the following pairs
(2,1) (1,2) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (6,2) (5,2) (4,3) (3,4) (2,5) (1,6) (6,3) (5,4) (4,5) (3,6) (6,5) (5,6)
A total of 18 pairs and we have 6 pairs who are in both cases for the sum less than 7 and the sum an odd number that represent the intersection and using the total probability rule we got:
Answer:
The 45% off discount saves an additional $10 compared to the 15% discount for a total of $15 off regular price.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the original price of the game through a proportion. A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities. For example, we will compare percent over percent to an equal ratio of $ to $. Since 15% of 100% is the same ratio as $5 to the unknown original $ price, I write:
I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.
I now solve for y by dividing by 15.
The original price was $33.34.
Now, we can find the amount if 45% off and then then compare the two discounts. To find the percent off I can multiply by 0.45(33.34)=15. The 45% off discount saves an additional $10 compared to the 15% discount.
