Answer:

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of flip flops is $30. This is our starting amount.

The tax will be applied on the price the flip flops are bought for. This means we must apply the discount first.

The discount is 20%. Let's find what the flip flops were sold for.

If the discount is 20%, the flip flops were sold for 80% of their original price. Let's find 80% of 30.

80% of 30 = ?

0.80 • 30 = ?

= 24

The flip flops were sold for $24.

Now we have to apply a 6.5% tax. To find the amount of money added to the total, we need to find 6.5% of 24.

6.5% of 24 = ?

0.065 • 24 = ?

= 1.56

The tax was $1.56.

We need to add the tax to the discounted price.

1.56 + 24 = ?

= 25.56

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Hope this helps!

The _____ of two sets X and Y is denoted by X-Y​
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Cartesian product

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cartesian product of two sets, X and Y, denoted by X × Y, is the set of all ordered pairs (x, y), where x is an element of X and y is an element of Y: 8 (2.4.1) X × Y = { (x, y) ∣ x ∈ X ∧ y ∈ Y } For example, if Children = { Peter, Mark, Mary }, and Parents = { Paul, Jane, Mark, Mary }, then

Which expression is a possible leading term for the polynomial function graphed below?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

D, 22x^9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a key for end behavior: Look at the leading term

x^even = x -> neg inf, f(x) -> pos inf; x -> pos inf, f(x) -> pos inf

-x^even = x -> neg inf, f(x) -> neg inf; x -> pos inf, f(x) -> neg inf

x^odd = x -> neg inf, f(x) -> neg inf; x -> pos inf, f(x) -> pos inf

-x^odd = x -> neg inf, f(x) -> pos inf; x -> pos inf, f(x) -> neg inf

The most common form of color blindness is an inability to distinguish red from green. However, this particular form of color bl
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

(a) The correct answer is P (CBM) = 0.79.

(b) The probability of selecting an American female who is not red-green color-blind is 0.996.

(c) The probability that neither are red-green color-blind is 0.9263.

(d) The probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind is 0.0737.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variables CBM and CBW are denoted as the events that an American man or an American woman is colorblind, respectively.

It is provided that 79% of men and 0.4% of women are colorblind, i.e.

P (CBM) = 0.79

P (CBW) = 0.004

(a)

The probability of selecting an American male who is red-green color-blind is, 0.79.

Thus, the correct answer is P (CBM) = 0.79.

(b)

The probability of the complement of an event is the probability of that event not happening.

Then,

P(not CBW) = 1 - P(CBW)

                   = 1 - 0.004

                   = 0.996.

Thus, the probability of selecting an American female who is not red-green color-blind is 0.996.

(c)

The probability the woman is not colorblind is 0.996.

The probability that the man is  not color- blind is,

P(not CBM) = 1 - P(CBM)

                   = 1 - 0.004  

                   = 0.93.

The man and woman are selected independently.

Compute the probability that neither are red-green color-blind as follows:

P(\text{Neither is Colorblind}) = P(\text{not CBM}) \times  P(\text{not CBW})\\ = 0.93 \times  0.996 \\= 0.92628\\\approx 0.9263

Thus, the probability that neither are red-green color-blind is 0.9263.

(d)

It is provided that a one man and one woman are selected at random.

The event that “At least one is colorblind” is the complement of part (d) that “Neither is  Colorblind.”

Compute the probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind as follows:

P (\text{At least one is Colorblind}) = 1 - P (\text{Neither is Colorblind})\\ = 1 - 0.9263 \\= 0.0737

Thus, the probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind is 0.0737.
