The second is marked down by ​30% with an additional 10​% off. Find the sale price of each washing machine. Use pencil and paper. Explain why joanne should buy the first washing machine rather than the second if the machines are the same except for the selling price.

Answer: The first machine would cost $420

and the second machine would cost $432

you should buy the first machine

Step-by-step explanation:If you get a 30% discount, then you are paying 70% of the selling price.

Machine 1:  600(.70) = 420

Machine 2:  A 10% discount means you pay 90%

600(.90) = 540   But now you get a 20% discount on that amount, which means you would pay 80%

So, 540(.80) = 432

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

0.0045 = 0.45% probability that less than two of them ended in a divorce

Step-by-step explanation:

For each marriage, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it ended in divorce, or it did not. The probability of a marriage ending in divorce is independent of any other marriage. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

55% of marriages in the state of California end in divorce within the first 15 years.

This means that p = 0.55

Suppose 10 marriages are randomly selected.

This means that n = 10

What is the probability that less than two of them ended in a divorce?

This is

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.55)^{0}.(0.45)^{10} = 0.0003

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.55)^{1}.(0.45)^{9} = 0.0042

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0003 + 0.0042 = 0.0045

0.0045 = 0.45% probability that less than two of them ended in a divorce
