Answer:

\frac{4}{14}=\frac{2}{7}  =28.57%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate a probability we first need to know the total possible outcomes, so the total is boys plus the girls, 6+8=14, we have a total of 14 students, and we need the total number of successfull outcomes, which is half of the girls, 4 girls use glasses.

So the probability is:

Probability=\frac{Successull outcomes}{Total possible outcomes}

Probability=\frac{4}{14} \\Probability=\frac{2}{7} \\Probability=.2857=28.57%

So the probability is 28.57% that if you pick a student at random you will pick a girl with glasses.

If half the girls wear glasses, then 8/2 or 4 girls wear glasses.
The whole class is 8+6 or 14 kids.
The probability is the number of girls wearing glasses over the total people in the whole class.

Number of girls wearing glasses/ T<span>otal people in class
</span>
4/14
Simplify= 2/7

Hope this helps :)

What is the answer to Ax - c = b
Korvikt [17]
Depends on what you are talking about, what is A,x,c and b.
If A is an invertible matrix and x,c,b are vectors of correct dimensions you get
Ax=b+c
x=A^(-1)(b+c)
if x is a variable and A,c,b are constants you get
Ax=b+c
x=(b+c)/A

On Monday a company stock closed at a price of $30.80 per share. On Tuesday it increased by $1.20 per share. On Wednesday it fel
aleksley [76]
Tuesday:
30.80 + 1.20 = 32.00

Falling by 6.25% means it ends up being 93.75% of what it used to be (100% - 6.25% = 93.75%)

Wednesday:
32.00 * 0.9375 = 30

Thursday:
30 * 0.96 = 28.8

Friday:
28.8 * 1.025 = 29.52

Net change means you subtract to get the difference.

Net change = Final - initial
= 29.52 - 30.80
= -1.28

The stock fell $1.28
