In this case we have the information we need to calculate the percentage because they give us the necessary experimental probability, we only have to pass the probability to its percentage form.

We know that probability can be converted to a percentage by multiplying the value of probability by 100, like so:

5/8 * 100 = 62.5

In other words, the probability that it will arrive at that time is 62.5%

The difference of two numbers is 16 the greater number is five less than four times a small number find the two numbers

Elis [28]

Answer:

The numbers are 23 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the equations

Let x = the greater number

and y = the smaller number. Then

(1) x - y = 16

4y = 4 times the smaller number and

4y - 5 = 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Then

(2) x = 4y - 5

You have a system of two equations:

$\begin{cases}(1) & x - y = 16\\(2) & x = 4y - 5\end{cases}$

2. Solve the equations

$\begin{array}{lrcll}(3) & 4y - 5 - y & = & 16 &\text{Substituted (2) into (1)}\\& 3y - 5 & = & 16 &\text{Simplified}\\ & 3y & = & 21 &\text{Added 5 to each side}\\(4) &y & = & \mathbf{7} &\text{Divided each side by 3} \\& x - 7 & = & 16 & \text{Substituted (4) into (1)}\\& x& = & \mathbf{23} & \text{Added 7 to each side}\\\end{array}$

The larger number is 23; the smaller number is 7.

3. Check

$\begin{array}{rclcrcl}23 - 7& = & 16 & \qquad &23&=&4(7) - 5\\16 & = & 16 & \qquad &23& = &28 - 5\\&&& \qquad &23& = &23\\\end{array}$

OK.
