Well first we must see if they are proportional.

46.2/6 = 10.7.8/14
7.7 = 7.7

They are proportional. The rate of proportion is 7.7 ounces per cellphone. Hope this helps!

Answer:

<h2>They have a proportional relationship, with a constant of proportionality of 7.7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A proportional relationship refers to the equivalence between two reasons, or two fractions.</em>

So, in this case, we have the two reasons.

<h3>First reason: </h3>

\frac{46.2 \ ounces }{6 \ cellphones}

<h3>Second reason:</h3>

\frac{107.8 \ ounces}{14 \ cellphones}

Now, to find if these reasons are proportional we just have to equalize them and find if both fractions have the same result:

\frac{46.2 \ ounces }{6 \ cellphones}=\frac{107.8 \ ounces}{14 \ cellphones}\\7.7=7.7

<em>As you can see, both fractions have the same result, this means that those reasons have a proportional relationship, and the constant of proportionality is 7.7.</em>

70% of kids who visit a doctor have a fever, and 40% of kids who visit a doctor have a sore throat. If the probability that a ki
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

52.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be kids who have a fever, and B be kids who have a sore throat, so

Based on the given information we have

P(A) = 70%, P(B) = 40%, and P(B|A) = 30%   (B|A is read as "B given A", which means probability of B happening given that A has already happened)

We are asked to find P(A|B), the probability of a kid having a fever given that we already know he has a sore throat.

Step 1:  First find P(A and B), this is the probability of a kid having both a fever and a sore throat.  We use the formula

        P(B|A) = P(A and B)/P(A)    

We have 2 of these values listed above, so we plug them in...

       30% = P(A and B)/70%

 This give us a value for P(A and B) which equals 21%  [multiply both sides by 70% to isolate P(A and B), (30%)(70%) = 21%]

Now we flip the equation to P(A|B), which is

     P(A|B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

We have 2 of the values, so we plug them in...

     P(A|B) =  21%/40%

  This gives us a value of 52.5%   (divide 21% by 40%)
