Answer: $45.90

No Jeremy can not find the cost of the sneakers by adding the percents, you have to the math one sale discount at a time.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply $60 by 15%, getting $9. Subtract 9 from 60 and get the first discount price: $51. Then you will multiply 51 by `10% and get 5.1, subtract 5.1 from 51 and get your final sale price $45.90. If you added the percents together you would get an incorrect value of $45.

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability mass of X is 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

If we set the winning requirement of your heads and my tails then the occurring possibility of both is 1/2 or 0.5.

Hence let us make a graph and use the figures to calculate the all the probabilities of you getting a heads.

Where X represents the number of dollars won during the flip of the coin, probability of heads represent the chances of occurrence of the value and of winning the dollars.

The probability of winning start to drop as the winning amount increases.

       

     X                          0     1               2     3       4      5

Probability of Heads  0 0.50 0.25 0.13    0.06 0.03
