Answer:

The difference is $5.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost Marcus will pay is

35.99 + 5.5% of 35.99

= 35.99 + 0.055(35.99) = 35.99 + 1.97945 = 37.96945

The total cost Tai will pay is;

39.99 + 9% of 39.99

= 39.99 + 0.09(39.99) = 43.5891

The difference between the total costs will be;

43.5891 - 37.96945 = 5.61965

To the nearest cent, this is 5.62

g What is the probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from
Elena L [17]

Answer: 0.02257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total cards in a deck = 52

Number of ways to select any 5 cards : ^{52}C_5

Since , there are total 13 kinds of card (includes Numbers from 2 to 9 and Ace , king, queen and jack).

Of each kind , there are 4 cards.

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a single kind : ^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a exactly three of a kind : 13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Now , the required probability = \dfrac{13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2}{^{52}C_5}

=\dfrac{13\times4\times\dfrac{48!}{2!46!}}{\dfrac{52!}{5!47!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{58656}{2598960}

=0.022569027611\approx0.02257

∴ The probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from a deck of 52 cards= 0.02257

6. Blake went to the grocery store at 6:30PM, He returned to his house around 9:14PM after running
zhenek [66]
If you subtract the times periods form each you will be able to get your answer. So, 9:14-6:30 it will be 2 hours and 44 mins because from 6:30 to 7 it 30 mins, and from 7 to 9 it’s 2 hours. So far, add the two and you get 2h and 30mins and from 9 to 9:14 it’s 14 mins. So, 2h 30 mins plus 14 mins is 2h and 44mins.
