Answer:
check your math
Step-by-step explanation:
The first subtraction was correct:
36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4
The second subtraction needs to be revisited.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4
__
You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4
The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.
_____
The length of the first cut piece was 21 3/4 inches.
each person starts with $8.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , Josh had $10 more than Carly, so he gave Carly half of his money. Then Carly had more money than josh, so she gave Josh $4. Then they both had $13. We need to find How much money did each person start . Let's find out:
Suppose Carly had $x , Josh had $10 more than Carly i.e. $(x+10), so he gave Carly half of his money i.e.
⇒
,Now , Josh have $
& Carly have
.
Then Carly had more money than josh, so she gave Josh $4 . So ,
Josh now have $
and Carly now have $
. Since both are equal :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore , each person starts with $8.
The probability is the probality of being designated a a management trainee (i.e. 30%) * the probability of not be appointed to a management posittion (i.e. 25%, which comes from 20% to be assigned to nonmanagerial position + 5% of being fired).
Result: 30% * 25% = 7.5%.
Answer: 7.5%.
