A = event that a male highschool player plays on a college team
B = event that a female highschool player plays on a college team
C = event that a male college player is drafted by the pro leagues
D = event that a female college player is drafted by the pro leagues

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

Going from high school to college:
P(A) = 4500/549500
P(A) = 0.0082 <<-- value is approximate
P(B) = 4100/456900
P(B) = 0.0090 <<-- value is approximate
Females have a better chance of playing on college teams (since 0.0090 is larger than 0.0082)

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

Going from college to the pro leagues:
P(C) = 44/4500
P(C) = 0.0098 <<-- value is approximate
P(D) = 32/4100
P(D) = 0.0078 <<-- value is approximate
Males have a better chance of getting drafted by the pro leagues (since 0.0098 is larger than 0.0078)

Which is the equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (3, 7)
quester [9]

Answer:

y =  -  \frac{5}{3} x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, rewrite the given equation in the form of y=mx+c.

m is the gradient while c is the y-intercept.

3x-5y=8

5y= 3x -8

y =  \frac{3}{5} x -  \frac{8}{5}

Thus, the gradient of the given equation is ⅗.

The product of the gradients of perpendicular lines is -1.

(gradient of line)(⅗) = -1

gradient of line= -1 ÷⅗

gradient of line= -  \frac{5}{3}

y =  -  \frac{5}{3} x + c

To find the value of c, substitute a coordinate.

When x=3, y=7,

7 =  -  \frac{5}{3} (3) + c

7= -5 +c

c= 7+5

c= 12

Hence, the equation of the line is y =  -  \frac{5}{3} x + 12.

Helga [31]

Answer:

#1 - Two complementary angles with measures that have a sum of 90.

#2- angles with a common vertex and side.

#3 - two supplementary angles with measures that have a sum of 180.

#4 - the region of a plane inside an angle

#5 - the region of a plane outside an angle

#6 - an angle with a measure of anything less than 90 degrees.

#7 - an angle with a measure of anything greater than 90 degrees.

These all should be right :)
