A survey taken during class revealed 30% of the students in a class bring their lunch to school. If the probability that a rando

mly selected student is a boy given that the student brings their lunch is 40%, what is the probability that a randomly selected student will be a boy that brings his lunch to school?

For the answer to the question above asking <span>what is the probability that a randomly selected student will be a boy that brings his lunch to school? I'll provide a solution for the following problem below.
</span>P(boy |lunch) = P(boy and lunch)/P(lunch) = 0.40
P(boy and lunch) = P(lunch)*0.4 = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12

Do the ratios 4/2 and 10/5 form a proportion? Yes or no
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

These are both 20 so that means that this is proportional, yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi.

To figure this out we can do something called cross multiplying to find a cross product. If we do this and our two answers are equal then it is indeed a proportion.

Here is how we do this.

\frac{4}{2}    \frac{10}{5}

So basically what we are doing is multiplying across in a diagonal direction.

Diagonal meaning like a slash / .

So in this case we would multiply the 4 and the 5 , since they're diagonal from each other.

Do the same for the 2 and the 10.

So we have to multiply :

4 x 5

2 x 10

=

20

These are both 20 so that means that this is proportional, yes.

Hope this helps.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me.

1. Explain how measurements taken by standard rulers and scales are limited,
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

RULER

measurements taken by ruler can be limited due to absolute errors, zero error and uncertainties.

1.) If the end of the ruler is worn out giving rise to a zero error

2.) The calibration of the ruler may give rise to another systematic error if the makings are incorrect.

3.) If the object to be measured is not on the same level as graduated surface of the ruler, the angle at which the scale is viewed will affect the result. This is known as parallax error.

SCALE

Systematic error can occur in a scale when the scale is wrongly calibrated.

Also, reading a scale from different angles introduces a variable parallax error.

random uncertainty could be a parallax error caused by taking readings from different angles. This can be reduced by the use of a mirror behind the scale and viewing normally.

Is 2/3 + 9.26 rational
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a rational number is a number such as -3/7 that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. Every integer is a rational number: for example, 5 = 5/1.

An Irrational ia (of a number, quantity, or expression) not expressible as a ratio of two integers, and having an infinite and nonrecurring expansion when expressed as a decimal. Examples of irrational numbers are the number π and the square root of 2.

Rational numbers include natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers. They can all be written as fractions. Sixteen is natural, whole, and an integer. Since it can also be written as the ratio 16:1 or the fraction 16/1, it is also a rational number.

In mathematics, the irrational numbers are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers. That is, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers.

So, it is rational
