Answer:

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average time you spent per problem for the first 20 problems is 25/20 = 5/4 minutes. There are 40 - 25 = 15 minutes remaining, and 30 - 20 = 10 problems remaining, so the average time per remaining problem is 15/10 = 3/2 minutes. Hence, you can spend

(3/2)/(5/4) = 6/5

times longer on the remaining problems.

The number of remaining problems is:
 30-20 = 10 problems.
 The amount of time remaining is:
 40-25 = 15minutes
 For the first 20 problems the time per problem is:
 t1 = 25/20 = 5/4 minutes
 For the remaining problems the time per problem is:
 t2 = 15/10 = 3/2 minutes
  Answer:
 
you will be able to spend about 3/2 minutes on each remaining problem

In a recent​ poll, 44​% of survey respondents said​ that, if they only had one​ child, they would prefer the child to be a boy.
viva [34]

Answer:

a) The probability that 71 of 150 will prefer boy child is 71/150 or 0.47

b) The result contradicts the poll actual percentage is 47.33% which is 3.33% more than the poll predicted

Step-by-step explanation:

If 71 out of 150 prefer boy child

The probability that the 71 will prefer boy child is

= 71/150

The actual percentage is

(71/150)*100%

= 47.33%

This contradicts the poll as this is more than the poll predicted. That means Less than 71 of 150 actually preferred boy child.
