8 total pens....4 are black

first pick, probability of being black is 4/8 
2nd pick. without replacing, probability is 3/7

probability of a black pen picked first and then another black pen picked again is : 4/8 * 3/7 = 12/56 = 0.21

In a sale, normal prices are reduced by 20%. Andrew bought a saddle for his horse in the sale. The sale price of the saddle was
pshichka [43]
The formula for this is: (sale price) / (1 - percentage)
Percentage have to be in decimal form, so divide percentage by 100 to get the decimal form.

220/(1-.20) = $275

The original price was $275.

The shorter sides of an acute triangle are x cm and 2x cm. The longest side of the triangle is 15 cm. What is the smallest possi
Ierofanga [76]
For an acute angled triangle 

h^2 < x^2 + y^2      where h = longest side and x and y are the other 2 sides.

so here we have

15^2 <  x^2 + (2x)^2

15^2 <  5x^2

x^2 >  15*3 = 45
x > sqrt 45 or x > 6.7

So smallest whole number value of  x is 7

The profits for a business can be represented as a function p(x)=110+25x for the month of January and q(x)=15x+85 for the month
mrs_skeptik [129]
To find the total profit, add p(x) and q(x):
(110 + 25x) + (15x + 85)
15x + 25x + 110 + 85 --> group like terms
40x + 195 --> add like terms
p(x) + q(x) = 40x + 195 --> This is the function that represents the total profit for January and February
