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

Need help what is the equation of the purple line​
Ainat [17]

Answer:

y=-2/5x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

use y=mx+b      look at where the line intercepts with the y-axis and that is at 8 so that is your b. Then find two points and count how many down or up it is to get from the higher up point (i usually use the one that intercepts at the y-axis) to same line as the other point, in this case thats down two. Then count how many to the right it is and in this case it is 5. so since it went down thats -2 over 5 so then you just fill that into the y=mx+b   and you should get   y=-2/5x+8

Hope this helped!

ps. if this was right can you make it brainliest? thanks!

Solve f(x) = 3(4)^x when x = 10. Can you explain how to solve this?
rusak2 [61]
\bf f(x)=3(4)^x\qquad \boxed{x=10}\qquad f(x)=3(4)^{10}\implies f(x)=3\cdot 4^{10}
\\\\\\
f(x)=3\cdot 1048576\implies f(x)=3145728

The diameter of a basketball is 9.47 inches. What is the length of 12 basketballs lined up next to each other?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the length of 12 basketballs lined up next to each other, multiply the diameter of one basketball by 12

12(9.47)=113.64\ in

therefore

The logical answer between the options is 116.88 inches, because the length cannot be less than 113.64 in
