Answer:

1/12 ≈ 8.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

If there's only 3 girls, then there's no way that a group of 5 can be all girls.  I assume you mean that there are 7 girls and 3 boys?

The number of ways to choose 5 students from 10 is ₁₀C₅.  This is the total number of combinations possible.

The number of ways to choose 5 students from 7 girls is ₇C₅.

So the probability is:

P = ₇C₅ / ₁₀C₅

P = 21 / 252

P = 1 / 12

P ≈ 8.33%

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

12.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean of a group of data, you add up all of the numbers and divide the total by the amount of numbers there are. In this case, you have 15,11,10,11,14,10,15,10,and 12.

All of those numbers added together is 108.

108 divided by 9 numbers, or weeks, is 12.

The average, or mean, is 12.
