Answer:

The value of the car will be x - (0.15)x after a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

The car was 15% more when it first came out, and the price went down by 15% after a year.

Therefore, to solve this problem, we need to multiply 0.15 by the initial cost, which will tell you how much the car price decreased.

Then, we need to subtract this amount from x, or the initial cost, in order to find how much the car will be worth after a year.

Therefore, the value of the car will be x - (0.15)x after a year.

Hope this helps! :D

Complete Question

A teacher gave his class two quizzes. 80% of the class passed the first quiz, but only 60% of the class passed both quizzes. What percent of those who passed the first one passed the second quiz? (2 points)

a) 20%

b) 40%

c) 60%

d) 75%

Answer:

d) 75%

Step-by-step explanation:

We would be solving this question using conditional probability.

Let us represent the percentage of those who passed the first quiz as A = 80%

and

Those who passed the first quiz as B = unknown

Those who passed the first and second quiz as A and B = 60%

The formula for conditional probability is given as

P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)

Where,

P(B|A) = the percent of those who passed the first one passed the second

Hence,

P(B|A) = 60/80

= 0.75

In percent form, 0.75 × 100 = 75%

Therefore, from the calculations above, 75% of those who passed the first quiz to also passed the second quiz.

There are 15 female performers in a dance recital. The ratio of men to women is 2:3. How many men are in the dance recital?
andre [41]
If 3 represents women, then we divide 15 by 3 to get 5. once we have 5, we must then multiply 2 and 5. once that is done we have 10. So the number of men in the dance recital is 10.

Hope this answer helps! feel free to ask any additional questions :)
