An owner of a small store knows that in the last week 54 customers paid with cash, 42 paid with a debit card, and 153 paid with a credit card. Based on the number of customers from last week, which fraction is closest to the probability that the next customer will pay with cash? *

Step-by-step explanation:

54 customers paid with cash

42 paid with debit card

153 paid with credit card

Add them up to find the total amount of people:

54 + 42 + 153 = 249

Now write 54(the number of customers who paid with cash) as a fraction over the total, 249.

54/249

So the probability that customers will pay cash is 54/249 or 18/83

answer: on graphs, the open and closed circles, or vertical asymptotes drawn as dashed lines us identify discontinuities.

as before, graphs and tables allow us to estimate at best.

when working with formulas, getting zero in the denominator indicates a point of discontinuity.

when working with piecewise-defined functions, check for discontinuities at the transition points where one piece ends and the next begins.
