Answer:
a) There is a 66.7% chance that you were given box 1
b) There is a 80% chance that you were given box 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, we need to note that there is a 1/10 chance of getting a defective bulb with box 1 and a 1/20 chance in box 2.
a) To find the answer to this, find the probability of getting a defective bulb for each box. Since there is only one bulb pulled in this example, we just use the base numbers given.
Box 1 = 1/10
Box 2 = 1/2
From this we can see that Box 1 is twice as likely that you get a defective bulb. As a result, the percentage chance would be 2/3 or 66.7%
b) For this answer, we need to square each of the probabilities in order to get the probability of getting a defective one twice.
Box 1 = 1/10^2 = 1/100
Box 2 = 1/20^2 = 1/400
As a result, Box 1 is four times more likely. This means that it would be a 4/5 chance and have a probability of 80%

Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percent increase, divide the increase by the original value.
The increase is $40.
The original value is $80.
40÷80 = 0.5
0.5 ⇒ 50%
It is a 50% increase.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to plot the given points, you would quickly see that this is a vertical line where x = 4 (a visual is always a good place to start).
Vertical lines have a slope that is undefined and are written in the form of x = .
If you had plugged into the slope formula
, where (
) is (4, 8) and (
) is (4,6) the result would be as follows:

= 
= 
Because you can not divide by 0, the slope is in fact undefined.
