Answer:

B. 45

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add the two possibilities of "success" {what we want to happen/what we are studying the likelihood of--in this case, technically rejection is the success, but that is very confusing}

12 + 28 = 40%

(40% of candidates are <em>not </em>rejected)

so, by finding 40% of 75, we can find how many candidates are likely to be accepted

[or, by finding 60% of 75, we can find how many will be rejected]

75 × 0.40 = 30 (30 candidates are not rejected)

75 - 30 = 45 (45 candidates are rejected)

{75 × 0.60 = 45 also}

RoseWind [281]
First you set up the problem- 7/12=x/100. then you cross multiply 7×100=700 then divide 12 into 700 so 700÷12=58.333333333333 and so your percentage is 58.3%

QUESTIONS 1,2,3 PLSSSS (PICTURE ATTACHED) :)
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

A) 20/6

B)21/16

C)21/10 or 2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u><em>EDIT!: someone else who probably has a better understanding than me answered this and I've been doing this all wrong lol please ignore this .w.</em></u></h2>

to find any probability just find the total and then divide that by the number of whatever you're checking for, eg. parkour backgrounds.

A)

7+3+4+6 = 20 total backgrounds

6 parkour backgrounds.

20/6 is your answer.

B)

6 + 10 + 5 = 21 total marbles

10 + 6 = 16 non yellow marbles

21/16 is your answer.

C)

6 + 10 + 5 = 21 total marbles

10 blue marbles

21/10 or 2.1 is your answer.

The length of rectangle is 5 cm greater than its width. The perimeter is 106cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Width-24 Length-29

Two sides of the rectangle are 5 cm bigger than the other two. So you would add the two 5 cm together (10cm). If you take the 10 cm off you (106-10) you will get a square. Then all you have to do is divide 96 by 4 (24), and add back on the two 5cm from the beginning to the length (29).

Can someone help me solve question 2 and 3?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Question 2 = 15 drinks

Question 3 = 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2:

For every drink, there are three sizes

Ratio = 1:3

There are 5 flavors

Multiply each side by 5

5:15

15 drinks

Question 3:

5 red, 6 yellow, 8 blue, 3 orange, 2 purple

Possible outcomes = 5 + 6 + 8 + 3 + 2 = 24 possible outcomes

Favourable outcomes = 6 + 8 = 14 favourable outcomes

Fraction = 14/24 = 7/12

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!
