What is P(A), the probability that the first student is a girl? (3/4)What is P(B), the probability that the second student is a girl? (3/4)What is P(A and B), the probability that the first student is a girl and the second student is a girl? (1/2)
The probability that the first student is a girl is (3/4), likewise for the 2nd 3rd and 4th it's still (3/4). The order you pick them doesn't matter.
However, once you're looking at P(A and B) then you're fixing the first position and saying if the first student is a girl what's the probability of the second student being a girl.
To get your answer, you would divide your distance by your speed. You should be going about 1.4 miles per hour.
C.
If each 1/2 is cut in 4 than you would have to multiply that by 2 because it's only half. Then since you're finding what fraction is it you would put a 1 on top and say 1/8.
The answer is .5. That is the answer because .5/10 = .05.
