Answer:

4 backpacks

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, set up a ratio.

Pounds of goods : Number of backpacks

We know that one backpack can carry ten pounds of goods.

10 : 1

We need to find how many backpacks are needed to carry 35 pounds of goods.

Pounds of goods : Number of backpacks

10 : 1

35 : ?

To figure this out, we need to find how we got from 10 pounds to 35 pounds.

10 : 1

35 : ?

Well, to get from 10 to 35, you must multiply by 3.5

10 x 3.5 = 35

Whatever you do to one side of the ratio, do to the other side.

Pounds of goods : Number of backpacks

10 : 1

x3.5 x3.5

35 : 3.5

Round 3.5 to 4 because you wouldn't want half of a backpack!

Therefore, you will need 4 backpacks to carry 35 pounds of goods.

After plotting the data from the table, with the number of times sick per year as a function of the number of apples eaten per week, I can conclude that there is no definite correlation between the two variables. This is because the data points do not have a good fit with any trend, meaning the R-squared value is low. Thus, the number of apples eaten per week has no significant effect on the number of times the people listed get sick per year.

Are the events "selecting a female" and "selecting a students who has brown eyes" independent?​
Deffense [45]

Answer:

No, the events are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that there are two events, A and B.

Such that first happens the event A and then the event B.

If the outcome of event A affects the probabilities for the different outcomes of event B, then the events are dependent.

In this case, if we have only the event "selecting a student who has brown eyes"  (at random)

The probability is equal to the quotient between the total number of students with brown eyes, and the total number of students, then this probability is:

P = 91/200 = 0.455...

Now, if we first impose the "selecting a female", now when we want to select a student with brown eyes we will look only at the female students.

In this case, there are 32 with brown eyes and a total of 90 female students, then the probability of selecting a female with brown eyes at random is:

P = 32/90 = 0.355...

So the probability is different, which means that the events "selecting a female" and "selecting a student who has brown eyes" are not independent.
