Answer:

Probability of Ben for being selected as president of sport club and elected editor of the school magazine will be = 0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given in the question is Ben has a chance of being selected as president of the school = 40% and a chance of being elected as editor of the school magazine = 70%

Therefore probability of two different events are

P(A) = 0.40

P(B) = 0.70

Now probability of happening both the events will be = P(A) × P(B) = 0.40×0.70 = 0.28

Therefore probability of happening of both the events will be = 0.28

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos M=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}=\frac{56}{70}=\frac{4}{5}\\\\\sin L=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=\frac{56}{70}=\frac{4}{5}

Hence, both ratios are equal to each other

Jess has 60 ounces of an alloy that is 40% gold. How many ounces of pure gold must be added to this alloy to create a new alloy
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

84 ounces of pure gold

Step-by-step explanation:

Jess has 60 ounces of an alloy that is 40% gold. How many ounces of pure gold must be added to this alloy to create a new alloy that is 75% gold?

Pure gold = 100% gold

Let the number of ounces of pure gold = x

Hence, we have the equation

40% × 60 ounces + 100%× x ounces = 75%(60 + x)ounces

= 0.4 × 60 + 1x = 0.75(60 + x)

= 24 + x = 45 + 0.75x

Collect like terms

x - 0.75x = 45 - 24

0.25x = 21

x = 21/0.25

x = 84 ounces

Therefore, we need 84 ounces of pure gold

Brut [27]

Answer:

(D) Pie chart

Step-by-step explanation:

The most appropriate method to represent the resulting data is the pie chart. This is because, in this sample, the variables are few and of nominal type.

Of the rest of the options, the only other that could be used is the histogram, since it can represent nominal variables with their corresponding frequency. The rest of the options have other uses not appropriate for this type of sample.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

y = -4/5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Chose any two points on the line:

(5, -2)

(-5, 6)

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

6 -(-2) / -5 - 5

8 / -10

-4/5

Equation:

y = mx + b

Plug in x and y using any coords and then plug in m (the slope):

-2 = -4/5 * 5 + b

-2 = -20/4 + b

-2 = -5 + b

Add 5 on both sides:

3 = b

Now our equation is:

y = -4/5x + 3

Please let me know if I've done something wrong!
