In the 7th and 8th grade combined, there 3+5 girls = 8 girls, and 7+5 boys = 12 boys. If there are only boys and girls, then there are 12+8=20 students in all. 

The fraction of girls out of the total is P = 8/20 = 2/5.

How do I find x? I am not sure how to get it because of the lines
JulsSmile [24]
A triangle's angles will always equal up to 180. Since you already have to of the angles, you will add them up together. 30+20=50. Then, you take 180 and subtract it by the sum of the two previous angles. 180-50=130. Now you know the last angle is 130. You also know that the missing angle is also 130. The reason for that is because the two angles are the exact same if you look at it.

The weight of an adult swan is normally distributed with a mean of 26 pounds and a standard deviation of 7.2 pounds. A farmer ra
Snezhnost [94]
Let X denote the random variable for the weight of a swan. Then each swan in the sample of 36 selected by the farmer can be assigned a weight denoted by X_1,\ldots,X_{36}, each independently and identically distributed with distribution X_i\sim\mathcal N(26,7.2).

You want to find

\mathbb P(X_1+\cdots+X_{36}>1000)=\mathbb P\left(\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{36}X_i>1000\right)

Note that the left side is 36 times the average of the weights of the swans in the sample, i.e. the probability above is equivalent to

\mathbb P\left(36\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{36}\frac{X_i}{36}>1000\right)=\mathbb P\left(\overline X>\dfrac{1000}{36}\right)

Recall that if X\sim\mathcal N(\mu,\sigma), then the sampling distribution \overline X=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{X_i}n\sim\mathcal N\left(\mu,\dfrac\sigma{\sqrt n}\right) with n being the size of the sample.

Transforming to the standard normal distribution, you have

Z=\dfrac{\overline X-\mu_{\overline X}}{\sigma_{\overline X}}=\sqrt n\dfrac{\overline X-\mu}{\sigma}

so that in this case,

Z=6\dfrac{\overline X-26}{7.2}

and the probability is equivalent to

\mathbb P\left(\overline X>\dfrac{1000}{36}\right)=\mathbb P\left(6\dfrac{\overline X-26}{7.2}>6\dfrac{\frac{1000}{36}-26}{7.2}\right)
=\mathbb P(Z>1.481)\approx0.0693
