What is the probability that a student randomly selected from a class of 60 students will be a male who has brown hair?

Answer:

1/6 ( under not enough of other criteria)

Step-by-step explanation:

total of student: 60

1/3 male: 60 x 1/3 = 20

Female = 60 - 20 = 40

1/2 with brown hair: 60 x 1/2 = 30

It seems the answer of 20/60 x 30/60 = 1/3 x 1/2 = 1/6 is the result, but consider the brown hair number is larger than male student (30 vs 20). Therefore there can have the chance of all the boys are brown hair and be chosen, then the probability will become 20/60 = 1/3. While probability result is not a certain result, it only to predict how likely things are to happen.

Therefore I think 1/6 is an answer.

Since it is a square, the angles are 90 degrees. The diagonals would bisect the angle in half so the angle PRS would be equal to 45 degrees.

if it takes 10 minutes for 15 machines to make 5 widgets, how many minutes would it take 5 machines to make 15 widgets
pshichka [43]

The number of minutes it will take 5 machines to make 15 widgets is 90 minutes

Given that :

The time taken to make a widget is directly proportional to the number of widgets made and inversely proportional to the number of machines utilized.

Using the variation protocol defined :

Let :

n = number of widgets made

n = number of widgets made m = number of machines used

n = number of widgets made m = number of machines used t = time taken

Hence, from joint variation :

t α n α 1/m

t = kn/m

Where k = constant of proportionality :

Solving for k

When t = 10, n = 5, m = 15

10 = (k × 5) / 15

15 × 10 = 5k

150 = 5k

k = 150 / 5

k = 30

Equation becomes :

t = 30n/m

Solve for t ;

When m = 5 ; n = 15

t = (30 × 15) / 5

5t = 450

t = 450 / 5

t = 90

Hence, it will take 90 minutes.

4y -6 = 2x+10<br>por favor quien me ayuda​
Bumek [7]

Answer:

y=1/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

4y-6 = 2x+10

+6 +6

4y= 2x+16

Divide by 4 on both sides

y= 1/2x+4

That's in the y-intercept form :)
