Step-by-step explanation:
You can't expect to get exactly 2500 out of 5000 tosses more than a few times . You will come pretty close, but that's only good in horseshoes.
Of course I'm answering this on the basis of a computer language and not actually performinig this a million tmes, each part of a million consisting of 5000 tosses.
Simulations and not completely unbiased, but based on experience, 5000 is a very small number and getting 2500 more than a couple of times is unlikely
Answer:
Number of plain cookie boxes sold = 785 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Cost of a chocolate chip cookie box = $1.25
Cost of a plain cookie box = $0.75
Total number of boxes sold = 1585
Total cost of the sold boxes = $1588.75
Let, number of plain cookie boxes sold = x
Number of chocolate chip cookie boxes sold = 1585 - x
So,
Total cost = total cost of the sold plain cookie boxes + total cost of the sold chocolate chip cookie boxes
$1588.75 = x ($0.75) + (1585 - x) ($1.25)
1588.75 = 0.75 x + 1981.25 - 1.25 x
0.5 x = 392.5
Therefore,
<u>Number of plain cookie boxes sold: x = 392.5 ÷ 0.5 = 785 boxes</u>

Hi Cherise1cherhop lets break this equation down with these steps:
1) add the whole numbers first
2) find the LCD of the fractions and that would be 42 since 42 can go into both denominators through multiplication
3) make the denominators (bottom numbers) the same as the LCD (42)
4) simplify it, now the denominators are equal
5) join the denominators together
6) simplify it (3 + 65/42)
7) convert 65/42 to mixed fraction
8) now that we made it a mixed fraction, simplify it
Answer: 4 23/42
