Answer:

780 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of students be "x"

We know 35% of these students take the bus, which is 273 students

So, the problem basically becomes:

35% of x is 273

We need to convert this word equation to algebraic equation. Remember,

"of" means "multiplication"

and

"is" means "equals to"

So, we can write:

35% * x = 273

To solve this for x, first we need to convert percentage to decimal by dividing by 100, so we have:

35% = 35/100 = 0.35

Now, we have:

0.35*x = 273\\0.35x=273

We solve for x:

0.35x=273\\x=\frac{273}{0.35}\\x=780

The total number of students at Jones High School = 780

galben [10]

Answer:

The statement is true about whether A and B are independent eventa is fourth option:

A and B are not independent events because P(A/B)=0.375 and P(A)=0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that the person rides the bus to school, then:

P(A)=75/300

P(A)=0.25

Let B be the event that the person has 3 or more siblings, then:

P(B)=24/300

P(B)=0.25


P(A/B)=9/24

P(A/B)=0.375


Like P(A/B)=0.375 is different to P(A)=0.25 the events are not independent


Answer. Fourth option:

A and B are not independent events because P(A/B)=0.375 and P(A)=0.25
