Answer: d) 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

10 out of 35 of the students are girls. The number of boys is therefore:

= 35 - 10

= 25 boys

Probability that the winner is a boy is:

= 25/35

Take that fraction to the simplest by dividing both by 5:

= 5/7

A woman went marketing for sugar for canning. In one store, sugar was 8 1/2¢ per pound and she found that she lacked 30¢ of havi

alex41 [277]

X=amount of money woman has
n=pounds of sugar
Store #1: 8.5*n=x+30
Store #2: 8*n=x-25

multiply #2 by 17/16 to make coefficient of n same as in #1

2: 8.5*n=17/16(x-25)

Subtract #2 from #1

0=x+30-17/16(x-25)
x+30-17x/16 +25*17/16
x/16=30+25*17/16
x=480+425
=905 cents
=$9.05
