Answer:

15 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

G : B : total

5 : 4 : 9

? :12: ?

No. of girls = (12x5)/4 = 15 girls

we put the ratio between girls and boys then we add the (total) or(sum) beside them in the same ratio then the summation of the ratio, like (5 +4 = 9) and then under the word "boys" we put the number given in the question which is (12) , now we need to know the number of girls in the class so we use the cross multiplication which i wrote at first.

by that, you can calculate no. of girls and no. of students in the whole class if you want.

A real estate agent has 12 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 30% chance of selling any one property during a
Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.2528 = 25.28% probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are sold, or they are not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

A real estate agent has 12 properties that she shows.

This means that n = 12

She feels that there is a 30% chance of selling any one property during a week.

This means that p = 0.3

Compute the probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

2 or less sold, which is:

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.0138

P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.0712

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.1678

Then

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0138 + 0.0712 + 0.1678 = 0.2528

0.2528 = 25.28% probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

A line has a slope of 3/7 and a y-intercept of 0. What is it’s equation in slope-intercept form?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

y = 3/7x

Step-by-step explanation:

Well slope-intercept form means this -----> y=mx+b

m = slope

b = y- intercept

In the question given they already telling us the slope (3/7) and the y intercept (0) so to put it into slope intercept form it will be ---> y= 3/7x

* If your y - intercept is zero you don't need to replace it with the b because its zero it means nothing (it has no value)

Hope this helps!!!
