The probability of the given condition is 28/165.

Given that, there are four boys and eight girls in a class.

We need to find the probability of the given question.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

The probability is defined as the chances of happening of any random event or the possibility of happening of any event is called the probability.

The teacher randomly selects three different students to answer questions.

The first is the student is a girl, the second student is a boy, and the third student is a girl.

The total number of students=12, the number of boys=4 and the number of girls=8.

Now,

Step 1: The first student is a girl=8/12

Step 2: The second student is a boy=4/11

Step 3: The third student is a girl=7/10

In the first step, you select one of 8 girls among 12 students.

In the second step, you select one of 4 boys among the remaining 11 students.

In the third step, you select one of the remaining 7 girls among the remaining 10 students.

Thus, probability=(8/12)×(4/11)×(7/10)=28/165

Therefore, the probability of the given condition is 28/165.

1. The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75
ryzh [129]
If this were to be graphed, the independent variable would be the price of the ticket for the rides. The dependent variable would be the total cost.

The fair admission is not a variable because it is a constant price for every single person who goes into the fair.

The problem asks to use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. In order to fully write out the equation, we have to figure out what the fair admission costs.

43.75 = 1.25(25) + b

*b represents the fair admission

Multiply 1.25 by 25

43.75 = 31.25 + b

Subtract 31.25 to find what b costs.

12.50 = b

The fair admission costs $12.50.

Solution: y = 1.25x + 12.50

What is fourteen times one thousand ?*

The trick with answering your 10s, 100s, 1000s, etc, is just adding zeroes onto the ends of the first number. So, since this is 14 times 1000, you would add 3 zeroes onto 14. So your answer is 14,000. Hope this helped!
