The original price would be 260 I think. Because if they paid 25% that should be 1/4 so add 65 three more times.
When looking at probabilities, two ideas are always true.
1) Any probability is more than 0.
2) The sum of all the probabilites is 1.
Idea #2 works here. (For example, think of how a die has six things and the probability of each is 1/6. So 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.) Let G = the probability of grape, C = probability of cherry and O = the probability of orange. From Idea #2, G + C + O = 1. Since we know G and C, then
3/10 + 1/5 + O = 1.
3/10 + 2/10 + O = 1
5/10 + O = 1
O = 5/10
Thus, the probability of an orange jelly bean is 5/10 = 1/2.
Let x be the earnings/hour at the movie theater.
y be the earnings/hour at the pet store
Systems of equations:
$152.50 = 10x + 8y
$171 = 8x + 10y
Solving for x and y:
x = $4.36/ hour in the movie theater
y = $13.61/ hour in the pet store.<span />
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
⟾Collect like terms
⟾Move the variable to the left
⟾Collect like terms again
⟾Divide both sides by -3
⟾ x = 45 ÷ 3
