This problem is quite difficult if you don't remember a technique to solving it.
I will help teach you this tactic.
First, set the percentage over 100, which is 48/100 as a fraction (which is what "over 100" means).
Now, put 12 over x, which is the total amount of students in the class. It should look like this: 12/x.
Now that we've done this, set them up as a proportion.
Your proportion should be:
12/x = 48/100
This is where it becomes a little confusing if you do not remember this correctly.
Cross multiply the denominator (the bottom number of a fraction) of 12/x by the numerator (the top number of a fraction) of 48/100.
This number should be:
48x.
Now, cross multiply the denominator of 48/100 by the numerator of 12/x.
This number should be:
1200.
Our equation now is:
48x = 1200.
To solve for this, divide both sides by 48 to solve for x.
48x / 48 = x
1200 / 48 = 25.
Your equation and solved problem is:
There are 25 total students.
I hope this taught you something and I hope it's very helpful!

The probability that a visitor to an animal shelter will adopt a dog is .20. out of nine visits, what is the probability that at
lana66690 [7]
This is a binomial probability situation, since a dog either is adopted or is not adopted.  The chances of a dog's being adopted in 0.20.  Here we're speaking of 9 visits.  Thus, n=9, p=0.20.

One way of doing this problem is to calculate the probability that ONE dog will be adopted, and then that that TWO dogs will be adopted, and so on, up to NINE dogs.  Add together these nine probabilities to get your answer.

But a better (faster) approach would be to calculate the probability that ZERO dogs will be adopted, and then to subtract this from 1.000.

Using my TI-84Plus calculator, I figured that P(0 dogs will be adopted) is binompdf(9,0.20,0), or 0.134.  Subtracting this from 1.000, we get 0.866 (answer to this problem).

Can someone help me with this guys? Thank you so much! I mark as brainliest
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

y=45

x=9

z= 9 root 2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right isosceles triangle, so

y=45

x=9

z= 9 root 2

9²+9²=z²

81+81=z²

162=z²

√162=z

z=9√2

Visual learning, local learners ,physical learners and auditory learners how can you use this information to help you success ma
Lina20 [59]
All of these are different methods of learning math. Visually, you can see graphs, charts, and geometric figures to help you learn. I'm not sure what a 'local learner' is. Physical learners can learn better by holding geometric figures, drawing graphs, etc. Auditory learners may learn best by listening to a teacher's lecture.

If you found this especially helpful, I'd appreciate if you'd vote me Brainliest for your answer. I want to be able to assist more users one-on-one, as well as to move up in rank! :)
