There are 600 students including the seventh and eighth graders at the party.

This problem uses the concept of percentages to define the conditions that are laid in front of us.

Let the original  number of students be S , and the number of seventh graders be   = 0.60S

We know that percent is used to convey the mathematical term of a fraction multiplied by 100.

Total students  after 20 eighth graders arrive = S + 20

And we have that

Number of seventh graders / total number of students  =  58%

.60S  / [ S + 20 ]  =   .58    we multiply both sides by  S +  20

0.60S  =0 .58 [ S + 20]

.60S  = .58S + 11.6   we subtract  0.58S from  both the sides

0.02S = 11.6  we divide both the sides  by .02

S  = 11/6 / 0.02 =    580

So the total number of students = 580 + 20  = 600 .

Hence there are 600 students at the party at that time.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

zero  (0)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of being hemophiliac and daughter is zero because females have 50% chance of being carrier.

where as males have 50% chance of being affected with hemophilia.

example for understanding: if after mating a girl have X chromosomes with hemophilia gene than she might have hemophilia but that is in rear case so probability is zero.

hope you understand my answer, thank you.
