Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Jone's goats = 550

Let Number of King's goat = x

Jone's goat is 10% more than King's ;

Thus, number King's goat would be ;

x = 550 - (10% of 550)

x = 550 - 55

x = 495

x = Mr. King's goat

Hence, Jones goat is :

550 - 495 = 55 more than Mr King's goat.

Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.20. All merchandise is discounted by 12%. What is the total cost of th

Contact [7]

Answer:

$74.75

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to tax, the sales tax is applied <em>after</em> the discount is provided by the store, as long as it is something like a direct store coupon or a discounted price. In this case, it is a discounted price by the store, so we will include sales tax after.

$79.20 after a 12% discount becomes $69.70 (or $69.696).

The state tax applies to this new price.

7.25% of $69.70 is $74.75

If you flip two coins 96 times what is the best prediction for the number of times they would both land on tails

emmainna [20.7K]

Flipping two coins gives four possibilities: HH, HT, TH, TT

So P(TT)=1/4

So we'd expect a quarter of the trials to be two tails.

$\frac 1 4 \times 96 = 24$ trials expected to be two tails.
