Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Expressing as equations
9x + 10y = 297 → (1) ← that is B
8x + 5y = 194 → (2) ← that is D
To solve the system of equations, multiply (2) by - 2
- 16x - 10y = - 388 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate the term in y
(9x - 16x) + (10y - 10y) = (297 - 388), that is
- 7x = - 91 ( divide both sides by - 7 )
x = 13
Substitute x = 13 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Using (1), then
(9 × 13) + 10y = 297
117 + 10y = 297 ( subtract 117 from both sides )
10y = 280 ( divide both sides by 10 )
y = 28
Cost of a small box of candy = $13
Cost of a large box of candy = $28
Answer:
28% I'm pretty sure
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are two events happening simultaneously (windy and no sun), we can apply the concept of conditional probability here.
P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)
where it means that given B is happening, the probability that A is happening as well is the ratio of the chance for A and B to happen simultaneously over the chance of B to happen.
For our case, this can be interpreted as
P(A|B): it is the probability that it is windy (A) GIVEN that there is no sun (B)
P(A∩B) : chance of wind and no sun
P(B) : chance that there is no sun tomorrow
The chance of P(A∩B) is already given as 20% or 0.20. Since there is 10% or 0.10 chance of sun, then chances of having no sun tomorrow is (1-0.10) = 0.90.
Thus, we have P(A|B) = 0.2/0.9 ≈ 0.22 or 22%.
So, answer is B: 22%<span>.</span>
