Answer:

144 students are expected to be left handed

Step-by-step explanation:

Approximately 12% of the population is left-handed. This is not the exact number of left handed students but it is very close to it. It could be above or below the exact amount, hence the word, approximately was used.

In terms of probability, the probability of a student being left handed is 12/100 = 0.12. The probability of a student being right handed is 1 - 0.12 = 0.88. Therefore,

The expected number of left handed students is the probable number of left handed students and it is

0.12 x total number of students

= 0.12 × 1200 = 144 students

How can the average rate of change be found using a discrete graph?
nekit [7.7K]
In general, the average rate of change of f (x) on the interval a, b is given by f(b) – f(a) / b – a. The average rate of alteration of a function, f (x) on an interval is well-defined to be the variance of the function values at the endpoints of the interim divided by the difference in the x values at the endpoints of the interval. this is also known as the difference quotient that tells how on average, the y values of a function are changing in connection to variations in the x values. A positive or negative rate of change is applicable which match up to an increase or decrease in the y value among the two data points. It is called zero rate of change when a quantity does not change over time.

How many solutions does this equation have?<br><br> –10q = –10q − 7
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

None (no solutions)

Step-by-step explanation:

-10q=-10q-7 (add 10q to both sides to get the costant 7 by itself)

-10q+10q=-10q+10q-7

0=-7 ( zero will never equal -7 hence there are no solutions to this equation)
