When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.

The inequality of the graph
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

\displaystyle y > 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the y-intercept of \displaystyle [0, -2],you do \displaystyle \frac{rise}{run}by either moving four blocks <em>south</em><em> </em>over one block <em>west</em><em> </em>or four blocks <em>north</em><em> </em>over one block<em> east</em><em> </em>[<em>west</em> and <em>south</em> are negatives]. Next, we have to determine the types of inequality symbols that are suitable for this graph, which will be <em>less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>and <em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>since this is a <em>dashed</em><em> </em><em>line</em><em> </em>graph. We then use the zero-interval test [test point (0, 0)] to ensure whether we shade the opposite portion [portion that does not contain the origin] or the portion that DOES contain the origin. At this step, we must verify the inequalities as false or true:

<em>Greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em>

\displaystyle 0 > 4[0] - 2 → 0 > -2☑

<em>Less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>

\displaystyle 0 < 4[0] - 2 → 0 ≮ -2

This graph is shaded in the portion of the origin, so you would choose the <em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>inequality symbol to get this inequality:

\displaystyle y > 4x - 2
