Answer:

Probability that a boy will answer the question = \frac{4}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

In a certain class of students,

Number of boys from Wilmette = 11

Number of boys from Winnetka = 5

Number of boys from Glencoe = 4

Total boys in the class = 11 + 5 + 4 = 20

Similarly, total number of girls in the class = 7 + 4 + 4 = 15

Total number of students in the class = 20 + 15 = 35

Now number of ways we can choose 1 boy out 20 boys

= ^{20}C_{1}=20

Similarly number of ways, we can choose a boy out of 35 students = ^{35}C_{1}=35

Now the probability that a boy will answer the question = \frac{20}{35}

= \frac{4}{7}

Is 16x^2-36x+25^2 a perfect Square trinomial
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

No, middle term should be 40x.

Step-by-step explanation:

16 {x}^{2}  - 2 \times 4x \times 5 +  {25}^{2}  \\   =  {(4x)}^{2}  - 40x +  {5}^{2}  \\  = (4x - 5)^{2}  \\

Hence, for the given trinomial to be a perfect square its middle term should be 40x and not 36x.
