Abusinessman bought a dealership that is incurring a loss of $500,000 a year. he decided to strategize in order to turn the business around. in addition to the $500,000 annual loss, his fixed cost for running the dealership on a monthly basis is $5,000. the number of cars sold per week and their probabilities mimic the outcomes of three coins being flipped. the number of cars sold in a week was observed to be the same as the number of tails that appear in a three coin flip. see the distribution: . number of tails 0 |1 |2 |3. probablity 1/8 | 3/8 | 3/8 | 1/8

Based from the given data, the expected number of cars sold in one week is B. 1.5.

The equation to solve the problem would be like this. 0*1/8 + 1*3/8 + 2*3/8 + 3*1/8 = 3/2 which when simplified is 1.5.

step-by-step explanation:

percentage - 25%

probability - 0.25

we know,

total amount of students in class = 20

total boys = 10

total girls = 10

no of girls who wear glasses = 10/2 = 5

probability of choosing a girl with glasses is =

number of girls wearing glasses/total number of students in the class = 5/20

thus, percentage of selecting a girl wearing glasses will be

= 5/20 × 100

= 5 × 5

25%

therefore,

probability will be 0.25
