You subtract 49.65 from 100 to get the percentage of women, which comes to 50.35, and if you turn that into a probability you get .5035.

So the answer's c... hope this helps

Answer: 0.5035

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: According to the 2000 U.S. Census Bureau, 49.65% of Texas residents were male.

Thus the percent of male in Texas = \frac{\text{Male}}{\text{Total}}\times100=49.65%

When we divide percent by 100, we get the fraction of male to the total population=0.4965

⇒  If one Texan was selected at random in 2000, what is the probability she was male P(M)=0.4965

Since, there are only two events according to gender (Male and Female)

∴ P(M)+P(F)=1

⇒ P(F)=1-P(M)

⇒ P(F)=1-0.4965

⇒ P(F)=0.5035

Hence, If one Texan was selected at random in 2000, the probability she was female =0.5035

In the figure below, points M, P, H, J, and K lie in plane Z.
marishachu [46]

Answers:

  • (a) LN
  • (b) PHJ
  • (c) K
  • (d) HK

===================================================

Explanation:

Part (a)

Lines LN and PN have the point N in common. This is the intersection point.

-----------------

Part (b)

To name a plane, pick any three non-collinear points that are inside it. We cannot pick points H, J, K together because infinitely many planes pass through it. Imagine the piece of flat paper able to rotate around this axis (like a propeller). Having the points not all on the same line guarantees we form exactly one unique plane.

I'll pick the non-collinear points P, H and J to get the name Plane PHJ. Other answers are possible.

------------------

Part (c)

Points H, J and K are collinear as they are on the same line. Pick either H or K to fill out the answer box. I'll go with point K

------------------

Part (d)

Point P and line HK are coplanar. They exist in the same flat plane, or on the same sheet of flat paper together.

We can think of that flat plane as the ground level while something like point N is underground somewhere. So point N and anything on that ground plane wouldn't be coplanar.

Note: there are other possible names for line HK such as line JH or line JK. The order doesn't matter when it comes to naming lines.

If you change the sign of a point's x-coordinate,how does the location of the point change?
yuradex [85]
If you change the point's x-coordinate, the point will move either to the left or the right, depending on if the number you change is negative or positive.
