Target sells a pack of iTunes gift cards for $40. Sam's Club sells them for $38.88. What is the percent decrease from Target's p
patriot [66]

We have been given that target sells a pack of iTunes gift cards for $40. Sam's Club sells them for $38.88. We are asked to find the percent decrease from Target's price to Sam's Club's price.

We will use percent decrease formula to solve our given problem.

\text{Decrease percent}=\frac{|\text{Final}-\text{Initial}|}{\text{Initial}}\times 100\%

\text{Decrease percent}=\frac{|38.88-40|}{40}\times 100\%

\text{Decrease percent}=\frac{|-1.12|}{4}\times 10\%

\text{Decrease percent}=\frac{1.12}{4}\times 10\%

\text{Decrease percent}=0.28\times 10

\text{Decrease percent}=2.8\%

Therefore, the percent decrease from Target's price to Sam's Club's price is 2.8%.

The deck of a card game is made up of 108 cards. Twenty-five each are red, yellow, blue, and green, and eight are wild cards. Ea
Vinvika [58]

Given Information:

Total cards = 108

Red cards = 25

yellow cards = 25

Blue cards = 25

Green cards = 25

Wild cards = 8

Required Information:

Probability that a hand will contain exactly two wild cards in a seven-hand game = ?

Answer:

P = (₈C₂*₁₀₀C₅)/₁₀₈C₇

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability is given by

P = number of ways of interest/total number of ways

The total number of ways of dealing a seven-card hand is

₁₀₈C₇

We want to select exactly 2 wild cards and the total wild cards are 8 so the number of ways of this selection is

₈C₂

Since the game is seven-card hand, we have to get the number of ways to select remaining 5 cards out of (108 - 8 = 100) cards.

₁₀₀C₅

Therefore, the setup for this problem becomes

P = number of ways of interest/total number of ways

P = (₈C₂*₁₀₀C₅)/₁₀₈C₇

This is the required setup that we can type into our calculators to get the probability of exactly two wild cards in a seven-hand card game with 8 wild cards and 108 total cards.

The area of a square for on a scale drawing of 100 square centimeters and the scale drawing to 1 cm: 2 feet what is the area of
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1.\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}; 2. \boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the area of the floor

If the area A₁ of a square floor on the scale drawing is 100 cm², the length of a side is 10 cm.

The side length l of the actual floor is  

l = 10 cm × (2 ft/1 cm) = 20 ft

The area A₂ of the floor is  

A = l² = (20 ft)² = \boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}\\

Step 2. Calculate the area ratios

We must express both areas in the same units.  

Let's express the area of the room in square centimetres.

l = 20 ft ×  (12 in/1 ft) = 240 in

l = 240 in × (2.54 cm/1 in) = 609.6 cm

A₂ = l² = (609.6 cm)² = 371 612 cm²

The area A₁ on the scale drawing is 100 cm².

The ratio of the areas is

\frac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = \frac{100}{371612} = \frac{1 }{3716}\\

The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is \boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}

from the edge of a cliff 180m high, the angles of depression of two boats at sea are 43° and 52° respectively what is the distan
MrRa [10]

tan 52 = 180/a; a = 180/tan 52

tan 43 = 180/b; b = 180/tan 43

you need to calculate, a-b = 180/tan 52 - 180/tan 43

substitute the value of tan thetas, and calculate it simply...
