Answer:
0.7 = 70%.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5 cans, and she will pick 2, so the number of possibilities that she can pick 2 cans is a combination of 5 choose 2:
C(5,2) = 5!(3!*2!) = 5*4/2 = 10
To find how many possibilities there are with at least 1 can of soup, we can find the number of groups that include no cans of soup, and then see how many possibilities complete the total 10:
There are 3 "no-soup" cans, so the number of possibilities is a combination of 3 choose 2:
C(3,2) = 3!/2! = 3
So, there are 3 possibilities that have no cans of soup, so the number of possibilities that have at least 1 can of soup is 10 - 3 = 7
Then, the probability is 7 / 10 = 0.7 = 70%.
Amount of tax on the book (s) is $0.72
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given 6/100 = s/12
- Step 2: Cross multiply to solve for s
⇒ 6 × 12 = 100 × s
⇒ 72 = 100s
⇒ s = 72/100 = 0.72
For a geometric sequence or geometric series, the common ratio is the ratio of a term to the previous term. This ratio is usually indicated by the variable r. Example: The geometric series 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, . . . has common ratio r = 2.
Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
I was on Khan Academy, and it said that the answer is 5/12 by 1/2 times 5/6.
Answer:
B and C
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one, any two shades of paint will be different if they're different numbers, and the same shade if they're the same numbers. Knowing this, we can see:
A , D, and E are all the same number (1/3) so they're all the same shade.
The remaining shades (B and C) are both 1/2 so they're the same shade.
Therefore there are two different shades of paint.
For the second one, we know that the more red the shade is, the larger the fraction will be. So we just need to look for the shades with the largest fraction. These are shades B and C, because they are both 1/2 (aka 50% red), whereas all the others are 1/3 (aka 33.3% red).
