Answer: The average was 9 years old find the average age of both groups is 10 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula foe average : \text{Average} =\dfrac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}

Given : The first group of students consists of 10 and their average age was 13 years old.

i.e. 13=\dfrac{\text{Sum of ages of students of first group}}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Sum of ages of students of first group}=13\times10=130      (1)

The next group consisted of 30 students and their average was 9 years old.

i.e. 9=\dfrac{\text{Sum of ages of students of next group}}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Sum of ages of students of nextgroup}=9\times30=270      (2)

Then from (1) and (2) , the sum of both groups (first group and next group )students = 130+270 =400

Combined students of both groups (first and next group )= 10+30=40

Now , the average of both groups =\dfrac{\text{Sum of combined students}}{\text{combined students}}

=\dfrac{400}{40}=10

Hence, the average was 9 years old find the average age of both groups is 10 years old.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

  C.  1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the selections are independent, their joint probability is the product of the probabilities of the individual events.

  P(pink square) = (# pink squares)/(# squares) = 16/60 = 4/15

  P(red or blue round) = (#red or blue rounds)/(# rounds) = 15/36

Then the joint probability is ...

  P(defined event) = (4/15)(15/36) = 4/36 = 1/9

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Part a) 160\ gallons

Part b) 480\ gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many gallons of water will be in the pool after 20 minutes?

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{40}{5}\frac{gallons}{minutes}=\frac{x}{20}\frac{gallons}{minutes} \\ \\x=40*20/5\\ \\x=160\ gallons

Part b) How many gallons of water will be in the pool after 1 hour

we know that

1 hour = 60 minutes

Using proportion

\frac{40}{5}\frac{gallons}{minutes}=\frac{x}{60}\frac{gallons}{minutes} \\ \\x=40*60/5\\ \\x=480\ gallons
