The experimental probability that only 2 of 4 children in a family are boys is <u>50%</u>.
<h3>What is experimental probability?</h3>
Experimental probability refers to the chance of an expected success being achieved in a series of experiments conducted.
Experimental probability is the number of times that the expected success occurs as a fraction of the total number of times the experiment was conducted.
Like all probabilities, the experimental probability is based on the likelihood that what the experimenter expects is achieved.
Expected number of boys = 2
The number of children in the family = 4
Experimental probability = 50% (2/4 x 100)
Thus, we can conclude, based on the experimental probability, that <u>50%</u> (or 2) of the 4 children in the family are boys.

The equation of the graph is given as y = (2/5)x - 5.
You have to figure out which of the choices equals the equation given,
y = (2/5)x - 5.
You could solve each of the answer choices for y, but since each choice is in the format x - (m)y = b, you can put the given equation in that format too.
Answer:
find the least common multiple for the denominator and multiply with the numerator
for the first one,
Step-by-step explanation:
the common multiple for 4 and 6 is 12
4×3=12
6×2=12
multiply the same numbers with the numerator
1×3=3
5×2=10
the answer is 3/12 and 10/12
Hi there!
PART A:
The system of equations we would use would be:
x + y = 22 (amount of items)
3x + 1y = 30 (cost)
Variables:
x = the amount of strawberry wafers bought at the price of $3
y = the amount of chocolate wafers bought at the price of $1
PART B:
To solve, we'll use substitution because we can easily isolate a variable using the first equation.
Work:
x + y = 22 (first equation)
y = 22 - x (isolating a variable)
3x + 1y = 30 (second equation)
3x + (22 - x) = 30 (substituting into the second equation)
2x + 22 = 30 (simplifying)
2x = 8 (subtracting)
x = 4 strawberry wafers
4 + y = 22 (substituting x into the first equation to solve for y)
y = 18 chocolate wafers
ANSWER:
They bought 4 strawberry wafers and 18 chocolate wafers.
Hope this helps!! :)
