A T. V. is regularly priced at $600, but it is on sale for 20% off. What's the sale price?

$480

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the normal price $600 by 20 then divide it by one hundred

the discount is $120

the sales price is subracting the discount of $120 from the original price of $600 then get $480 as the sales price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:  Subtract 20% from 100%, obtaining 80%, and then multiply the regular price ($600) by the decimal equivalent 0.80.  We get $480 as the sale price.

Method 2: Calculate the amount of the discount by multiplying $600 by 0.20, obtaining $120.  Then subtract this discount from the regular price, $600, obtaining $480.

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
