Sample response: The Smith family has 2 choices to make, color
and style. By the fundamental counting principle, the product of the
number of choices of color and style must equal 8. So, there could be 1
color and 8 style choices, 2 colors and 4 styles, 4 colors and 2 styles,
or 8 colors and 1 style.
The answer is
2)40
3)y=3\2
Answer:
The scores in order from least likely to most likely is 8, 3, 4, and 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Calculate the probability of the spinner adding up to 1, 2, 3, 4, .... 8
You will get:
2 (1/16)
3 (2/16)
4 (3/16)
5 (4/16)
6 (3/16)
7 (2/16)
8 (1/16)
2. Given the scores from the problem, the probability of each number is 3 (2/16), 4 (3/16), 5 (4/16), and 8 (1/16).
3. With this, we can determine the scores in order from least likely to most likely is 8, 3, 4, and 5.
It’s $13.75=3x-$2.50 -> $11.25=3x -> $3.75=x
X=g
Your answer will be 5.
Hope this helps!
