2 is subtracted from 8 which gives you 6 and 6 times 5 equals 30
I think its $3.43 per pair of sock
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
ATQ,
Malachy halves the number and gets an answer of 67.3.

This the equation for the given statement.
It can also be written as :

Hence, this is the required solution.
c. 4.6
21 X .22= 4.6
Calculating the variance requires finding the product of 21 and 22%. To make this easier we convert 22% into it's decimal form and construct the equation. To back check this answer we can use 10% of 21 voters which equals 2.1% then double that amount to reach 4.2%, knowing that we now have a close approximation of the variance we can eliminate answers a, b, and d, leaving c as the only logical choice.
