Answer:
975 students
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a dense question. Let's look at it piece by piece:
1. The ratio of boys to students in the class is 10/25. If there are 25 students and 15 girls, that leaves 10 boys.
2. The question says that the ratio is in proportion of boys to total students in the school. "In proportion" in this case means that if we convert 10/25 to a fraction with numerator 390, the denominator is the amount of students in school.
3. 10x39=390. What you do the numerator you must do to the denominator: 25x39=975.
4. This means 975 students go to the school.

Therefore, I think the probability is 14/64. Not sure so check my work.
14 combinations
64 outcomes (2+4+8+16+32+64 or 2^n)
To convert a decimal into scientific notation, move the decimal point until you get to the left of the first non-zero integer. The number of places the decimal point moves is the power of the exponent, because each movement represents a "power of 10".
<span>Inflection points are where the function changes concavity. Since concave up corresponds to a positive second derivative and concave down corresponds to a negative second derivative, then when the function changes from concave up to concave down (or vise versa) the second derivative must equal zero at that point. So the second derivative must equal zero to be an inflection point. But don't get excited yet. You have to make sure that the concavity actually changes at that point.</span>
