Two stores sell the same television for the same original price. store a advertises that the television is on sale for 30% off the original price. store b advertises that it is reducing the television’s price by $250. when allison compares the sale prices of the television in both stores, she concludes that the sale prices are equal. let p represent the television’s original price. which equation models this situation? 0.7(p−250)=p 0.3=p−250 0.7p=p−250 0.3p = p + 250

Our star pitcher, foster enlight, can throw a pitch so fast that it gets to the catcher’s mitt before it leaves foster’s fingers! if the team wins a game then the probability that foster was pitching is 0.8 but only if foster had at least one day’s rest since his last pitching assignment. if foster does not have a day off and the team still wins, the probability that foster was pitching drops by half of what it was on the previous day. if the team wins three games in succession from the toronto tachyons and foster pitched in game #2, what is the probability that he pitched in one or more of the other games? (assume that foster did not pitch on the day before the first game of this three game series.)
