Sauron [17]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

The product is 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply two fractions, first multiply the numbers on the top (numerators).

1 * 3 = 3

Then multiply the bottom numbers (denominators).

2 * 4 = 8

Now stick the first over the second.

3/8

In a test of a gender-selection technique, results consisted of 229 baby girls and 7 baby boys. Based on this result, what is

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure that the answer would be 229/236.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so. Since the results of the test is 229 for a girl and the results for a boy is 7. So i'm pretty sure what to do is combine both the results and keep that as the denominator. And then the numerator will be the result. So in this case the numerator would be 229 and the denominator would be 236.

I hope this helped, have a great day!!!

Determine if the table shows a linear or an exponential function

____ [38]

Answer:

<em>The table shows an exponential function</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear vs Exponential Functions</u>

A linear function is written as:

$y=mx+b$

where m and b are constants.

If a table contains a linear function, then for each pair of ordered pairs (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the value of m must be constant.

The slope can be calculated as:

$\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

An exponential function is written as:

$y=y_o.r^x$

Where r is the ratio and yo is a constant.

If a table contains an exponential function, for two ordered pairs (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the value of r must be constant.

The ratio can be calculated as:

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt[x2-x1]{\frac{y2}{y1}}$

Calculate the slope for (0,4) and (1,2):

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2-4}{1-0}=-2$

Calculate the slope for (1,2) and (2,1):

$\displaystyle m=\frac{1-2}{2-1}=-1$

Since the slope is not the same, the function is not linear.

Now calculate the ratio for (0,4) and (1,2)

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt[1-0]{\frac{1}{2}}$

The radical of index 1 is simply equal to its argument:

$\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}$

Now calculate the ratio for (0,4) and (2,1)

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt[2-0]{\frac{1}{4}}$

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}$

$\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}$

Testing other points we'll find the same ratio, thus the table is an exponential function

Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel are among 13 students who entered a lottery to win a free vacation to Paris.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the students are chosen is not important, so the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Desired outcomes:

4 students from a set of 4(Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel). So

$D = C_{4,4} = \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} = 1$

Total outcomes:

4 students from a set of 13(number of students in the lottery). So

$T = C_{13,4} = \frac{13!}{4!(13-4)!} = 715$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{715} = 0.0014$

0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.
