Answer:

b) .474

Step-by-step explanation:

If 62% go to a four-year college, that means that those who don't represent 38% of the high-school graduates.

You pick up someone who is NOT going to a four-year college (so, he's among the 38%)... what's the chance he's in the 18% of the whole high-school graduates population that found a job?

To calculate that probability, we have to divide 18% by 38%.

P = 18% / 38% = 0.4736, so 0.474

Since we are sure he doesn't go to a four-year college, there's 47.4% of chances he finds a job.

Find the slope given the two points. (2, -6) and (2, 3)
kifflom [539]

Answer: Undefined

The x coordinates are the same, so a vertical line forms. All vertical lines have undefined slopes.

We can see it through the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (3-(-6))/(2-2)

m = (3+6)/(2-2)

m = 9/0

We cannot divide by zero, so the result is undefined.

Find the area A of the sector of a circle of radius 50 feet formed by the central angle
kozerog [31]

Answer:

A=6250\ feet^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The radius of circle, r = 50 feet

The central angle, \theta=5\ radian

We need to find the area of the sector of a circle. The formula for the area of sector is given by :

A=\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 50^2\times 5\\\\A=6250\ feet^2

So, the area f the sector of the circle is 6250\ feet^2.

Determine the next three terms in the following sequence: 2, 3, 5, 8, ____, ____, ____,... a. 13, 19, 26 b. 12, 17, 23 c. 12, 16
Olenka [21]

Answer:

B. 12,17,23

Step-by-step explanation:

2,3,5,8, _,_,_

2,3 is increased by 1

3,5 is increased by 2

5,8 is increased by 3.  theres our pattern, each time it increases it follows the next number so the next 3 numbers it would be increased by is. 4,5,6.

Now knowing it is 4,5,6 we need to add, start adding.

8+4=12. Which answers have 12 in them? B and C.

We know 12 is the next number, now we add 5 to that.

12+5=17.

B has 17 but C doesn't, so that tells you its most likely going to be B. To make sure add 6 to 17.

17+6=23. Its true that it is B, as B is 12.17.23.
