For a question like this, all you have to do is remember that a percentage is simply a fraction expressed as a decimal. So, all we have to do is:
\frac{187}{550}, and then multiply our decimal answer by 100 to get the percentage:
\frac{187}{550} = 0.34
0.34 x 100 = 34
Therefore 34% of the students walk to school.
I hope this helped and remember to please try and understand the maths that got the answer, not just writing the answer down :))

victus00 [196]

Answer:

{A and B are independent events}, P(A|B)=P(A)=0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we need to know when does two events become independent:

For the two events to be independent,  P(A|B)=P(A) that is if condition on one does not effect the probability of other event.

Here, in our case the only option that satisfies the condition for the events to be independent is  P(A|B)=P(A)=0.16.. Rest are not in accordance with the definition of independent events.

A department store sold 67 shirts one day. All short sleeved shirts cost $15.00 each and all long sleeved shirts cost $26.00 eac
earnstyle [38]

37 short-sleeved shirts were sold and 30 long-sleeved shirts were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the number of short-sleeved shirts

and

l be the number of long sleeved-shirts

Then according to given statements

s+l = 67\ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\15s+26l = 1335\ \ \ Eqn\ 2

From eqn 1:

s = 67-l

Putting in equation 2:

15(67-l)+26l = 1335\\1005-15l+26l = 1335\\1005+11l = 1335\\11l = 1335-1005\\11l = 330

Dividing both sides by 11

\frac{11l}{11} = \frac{330}{11}\\l = 30

Putting l=30 in equation 1

s+30 = 67\\s = 67-30\\s =37

Hence,

37 short-sleeved shirts were sold and 30 long-sleeved shirts were sold
