1) 55% is girls, then
100-55=45% is boys.

2) 45%=0.45 or 2) 400 ----100%
3)400*0.45= 180 boys x -----45% x=400*45/100=180 boys

Answer is 180 boys.

vfiekz [6]

At a corner gas station, the revenue R varies directly with the number g of gallons of gasoline sold. If the revenue is $44.50 when the number of gallons sold is 10, find a linear equation that relates revenue R to the number g of gallons of gasoline. Then find the revenue R when the number of gallons of gasoline sold is 15.5.

Solution:
As the question mentioned the direct relationship between the quantities, hence
10 gallons of gasoline sold = $44.50
15.5 gallons of gasoline sold = $x
by cross multiplication, we get that
10x = 15.5 * 44.50
which implies that
x = 68.975
Thus by $68.975 revenue is obtained by selling 15.5 gallons of gasoline.

Answer:

The probability that none of the LED light bulbs are defective is 0.7374.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

What is the probability that none of the LED light bulbs are defective?

Solution:

Let the random variable X represent the number of defective LED light bulbs.

The probability of a LED light bulb being defective is, P (X) = p = 0.03.

A random sample of n = 10 LED light bulbs is selected.

The event of a specific LED light bulb being defective is independent of the other bulbs.

The random variable X thus follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 10 and p = 0.03.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={10\choose x}(0.03)^{x}(1-0.03)^{10-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

Compute the probability that none of the LED light bulbs are defective as follows:

$P(X=0)={10\choose 0}(0.03)^{0}(1-0.03)^{10-0}$

$=1\times 1\times 0.737424\\=0.737424\\\approx 0.7374$

Thus, the probability that none of the LED light bulbs are defective is 0.7374.

Answer:

The edge lengths are 3 for all of them. Radical cubed 27 is also 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

27/ 3 = 9. The square root of 9 is 3. So 3 * 3 * 3 = 27. For the bottom answer, it is 3 since 3 * 3 * 3 = 27.

How simple is this answer. I don't understand your problem.
