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.

The spinner shown has eight equal-sized sections. The pointer lands on an even number 135 times out of 250 spins. Which of the f
forsale [732]

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we shall be evaluating the validity of the statements;

A. Yes, A is true

There are four even numbers 2,4,6 and 8 and 4 odd number 1,3,5,7; The landing should be equal at 125 each

B. This is wrong

It is supposed to land half of the number of time s which is half of 250 and that is 125

C.This is wrong

The numbers greater than 4 are 5,6,7,8

Now, the probability should be 4/8 = 1/2 and that is 50%

D. This is correct

Number of times we have a landing on odd numbers is 250-135 = 115

The experimental probability of landing on an odd number is thus 115/250 = 0.46 which is 46%

Equate the expressions for m.
  7x = 3x + 20
  4x = 20 . . . . . . . subtract 3x
  x = 20/4 = 5 . . . divide by 4

The value of x is 5.

Which of these triangle pairs can be mapped to each other using two reflections?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: The correct option is figure (1).

Explanation:

Reason for correct option:

The figure (1) shows the reflection across the side XY followed by reflection across the side YT.

When we reflect the triangle XYZ across the side XY we get the triangle XYT as shown in below figure.

After that we reflect the triangle XYT across the side YT and we get the triangle PYT.

Therefore, only figure 1 shows the triangle pairs can be mapped to each other using two reflections.

Reason for incorrect options:

The figure (2) shows the rotation of 180 degree along the point y.

The figure (3) shows the reflection across the side XY followed by the translation.

The figure (4) shows the reflection, followed by rotation , followed by translation.
