Answer: 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that there are 4 colors of Starburst flavors: yellow, pink, red, and orange. We are further told that the probability of getting an orange is 2/5, yellow is 1/10 , and red is 3/10.
The probability of getting pink would be:
= 1 - [P(orange) + P(yellow) + P(red)]
= 1 - (2/5 + 1/10 + 3/10)
= 1 - (4/10 + 1/10 + 3/10)
= 1 - 8/10
= 2/10
= 1/5
Answer:
X4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
She typed 32 words in her letter
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the letter has x words
∵ She typed x words in her letter
∵ She misspelled 8 words
∵ She misspelled 25% of the words she typed
∴ She misspelled 25% of x
→ That means 8 is equivalent to 25% of x
∴ 25% of x = 8
∴ 25% × x = 8
→ Change 25% to decimal by divide it by 100
∵ 25% = 25 ÷ 100 = 0.25
∴ 0.25 × x = 8
∴ 0.25x = 8
→ Divide both sides by 0.25
∵
= ![\frac{8}{0.25}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B0.25%7D)
∴ x = 32
∵ x represents the number of words that she typed in the letter
∴ She typed 32 words in her letter
