Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the each number is equally likely

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

There are 12 numbers on the spinner

Number less than or equal to 5: 1,2,3,4,5

There are 5 choices

P ( # < = 5) = Number less than or equal to 5/ total

=5/12

To determine the number of beavers in a conservation area, a researcher catches and marks 119 beavers. Then the researcher rele

romanna [79]

Let x be the total number of beavers. We mark 119 out of x beavers. Then, we found 39 marked beaver out of 89 caught beavers. So, if we build the proportion

$119 \div x = 39 \div 89$

we get, solving for x,

$x = \dfrac{119\cdot 89}{39} \approx 272$

So, it is reasonable to suppose that there are about 272 beavers in total. Note that this is an estimate, both numerically and conceptually, since we have no information about the set of beavers caught at the beginning and the end of our experiment.

A tiling company completes two jobs. The first job has $1200 in labor expenses for 40 hours worked, while the second job has $15

Lelu [443]

The slope (change in y/change in x) of the line is (1560 - 1200)/(52 - 40), which is equal to 30. We can plug this into the equation y = mx + b using either the point (40, 1200) or (52, 1560). The slope is represented by m and the y - intercept by b. Therefore, the two possible equations you could use are:

1200 = 30(40) + b

or 1560 = 30(52) + b

Using either equation, you'll get that b is equal to 0, which makes sense in the context of the problem, since it's reasonable to expect that the labor expenses would be 0 for 0 hours worked.
