To find the probability that someone that is undecided is selected, we can use a method to find probability. That is, probability = choices/total outcomes. Here, since there are 5 people that are undecided, and 35 people in total, then the probability is 5/35 or 1/7.

Now, we need to find what 1/7 is as a decimal. We can do this by dividing 1 by 7. Doing this, we get 0.14285714285... Now we need to round to the ten-thousandths place. The number currently in the ten-thousandths place is 8. Since the number behind 8 is 5, we round up. So, that means that the answer is 0.1429

I guess maybe 5/35 because there are only 5 chances that you could get one of the 5 in the 35 people

Given x less than y, compare the following expressions and determine which is greater: 2x-y;2y-x. Explain your answer
sweet [91]

Let's form the difference of the two expressions and see what we can learn.

(2y -x) -(2x -y) = 2y -x -2x +y = 3y -3x = 3(y -x)

Since y > x, this is positive, so 2y -x is greater than 2x -y.

shusha [124]
In the data shown, rearranging the  data [<span>9.4, 9.2, 9.7, 9.8, 9.4, 9.7, 9.6, 9.3, 9.2, 9.1, 9.4] from the least to the greatest would give us the following data set:

9.1, 9.2, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.4, 9.4, 9.6, 9.7, 9.7, 9.8

The box-plots uses a 5-number summary. The minimum value, then Q1 which is the media of the lower half of the set, Q2 which is the median of the total set, Q3 which is the median of the upper half of the set, and Q4 which is the highest number. Among the choices, the correct answer is B.</span>
