Answer:
Probability that both such alarms fail is 0.03027
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability the alarm fails = 0.174 (this is calculated by dividing the percentage by 100 like: 17.4/100)
Probability that both such alarms fail = 0.174 * 0.174 = 0.03027
Answers:
- Discount price = 280.50 dollars
- Amount lost = 49.50 dollars
================================================
Explanation:
If it's sold at a loss of 15%, then the store owner loses 0.15*330 = 49.50 dollars
So it was sold for 330- 49.50 = 280.50 dollars
----------------------------
An alternative method:
If the store owner loses 15%, then they keep the remaining 85% since 15%+85% = 100%.
85% of 330 = 280.50 dollars is the discount price
This means 330-280.50 = 49.50 dollars is the amount lost.
