Answer: 3/4, because the probability of renting a comedy is 1/4
================================================================
Explanation:
We have 36+26+30+28 = 120 students. 30 of which rented a comedy.
The probability of renting a comedy is 30/120 = (30*1)/(30*4) = 1/4
The probability of not renting a comedy is 1 - (1/4) = 4/4 - 1/4 = (4-1)/4 = 3/4.
Or you could say that 1/4 = 0.25, so 1-0.25 = 0.75 which converts to the fraction 3/4.
If you had 4 people and 1 of them rents a comedy, then the other 3 hasn't rented a comedy.
Slot method
20 options
3 slots
First slot: 20 options
Second slot: 19 options (one used up for 1st slot)
Third slot: 18 (one less than last)
Multiply them
20 times 19 times 18=6840
Answer is 6840 ways
Answer:
d = 2.75 or 11/4
Step-by-step explanation:
15 = 5 + 4(2d - 3)
15 = 5 + 8d - 12
15 = 8d - 7
<u>+7 + 7</u>
22 = 8d
22/8 = d
2.75 = d
Check:
15 = 5 + 4(2(2.75) - 3)
