3/5 of the class were boys. The teacher divided the boys equally into groups so the each group of boys had 1/10 of the number of

students in the class. The teacher then divided the girls equally into groups such that each group of girls had 1/5 of the number of students in the class? How do I do this and what's the answer?

I think boys =18
          girls=12
boys :x
girls:y
student:z
the number of group for the boys :n
the numberof group for the girls :m
so x=(3/5)*z
    y=(2/5)* z
x/y=3/2
3y-2x=0
(1/10)*z*n=(3/5) *z
so n=6
(1/5)*z*m=(2/5)* z
put x=(1/10)*z*6
    y=(1/5)*z*2
 into 3y-2x=0 and z=30
 z=30 so x=(1/10)*30*6=18
               y=(1/5)*30*2=12

Rolling 7 or 11 on the first roll is a win probability of winning on 1st roll
gtnhenbr [62]

1/6 plus 1/18, which equals to 2/9. Suppose we roll 4 on the first roll (the probability of rolling 4 is 1/12). On each successive roll the probability of rolling 7 is 1/6 and the probability of rolling 4 is 1/12.

[i.dk how this can help but if you got a 7 or 11 rolling on the first round you would probably win]

A digital scale reports a 10 kg weight as weighing 8.975 kg
sergiy2304 [10]

That question is accompanied by these answer choices:

<span>A. The scale is accurate but not precise.
B. The scale is precise but not accurate.
C. The scale is neither precise nor accurate.
D. The scale is both accurate and precise.

Then you need to distinguish between accuracy and precision.

Accuracy refers to the closeness of the measure to the real value, while precision, in this case, refers to the level of significant figures that the sacle report.

The fact that the scale reports the number with 4 significant figures means that it is very precise, but the fact that the result is not so close to the real value as the number of significan figures pretend to be, means that the scale is not accurate.

So, the answer is that the scale is precise but not accurate (the option B</span>
