Answer:

<h2>D. 0.389</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the probability of a studend taking a humanities class, given the student is male.

In this case, the total number of outcomes 180, which is the total number of male students. The possible event is 70, which is all male students which take humanities class.

So, the probability is

P=\frac{70}{180} \approx 0.389

Therefore, the right answer is D., the probability that a student is taking a humanities class, given the student is male, is 0.389, rounded to the nearest thousandth.

Answer:

0.389

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined as the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = EXPECTED OUTCOME/TOTAL OUTCOME

Since we are to find the probability that a student is taking a humanities class, given the student is male, first we need to know the EXPECTED OUTCOME. Since we are considering a male student taking humanity class, the expected outcome will be 70 according to the first row, first column of the table.

The TOTAL OUTCOME will be the total number of all the male students only since we are not considering female students.

TOTAL OUTCOME = 70+50+60

TOTAL OUTCOME = 180

Probability that a student is taking a humanities class, given the student is male will then be:

70/180

= 7/18

= 0.389(to nearest thousandths)

I need help on this question please

Answer: NEITHER

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation of lines given above, to know if relationships exist between the two lines, we must  first determine that  from their gradients or slopes.

From first equation

2x - y = 5,

      y = 2x - 5

Therefore, m₁ = 2

From the second equation

3x - y = 5

       y = 3x - 5

Therefore m₂ = 3

Recall, For the two lines to be parallel, m₁ = m₂ , and for the two line to be perpendicular, m₁m₂ = -1

since none fulfilled the conditions stated above, the answer then is

NEITHER

Ahh yes, negative exponents always give us a scare once and a while. All the negative means is to flip the position of its base. For instance, if x has a negative exponent and x in the denominator, all you would have to do is move x to the numerator with the same power (except it's no longer negative). Before we substitute x and all the other variables which the values given, let's eliminate the negatives first.

After flipping positions/eliminating the negative exponents it should look like this:

\frac{ 2^{2} x^{3} }{ y^{5} }
which simplifies to 
\frac{ 4 x^{3} }{ y^{5} }
now that everything is simplified, and all negative exponents are eliminated we can substitute x with 2, and y with (-4).
\frac{4 (2)^{3} }{ (-4)^{5} }
which simplifies to 
\frac{4(8)}{(-1024)} = \frac{32}{-1024} = - \frac{1}{32}

Final Answer: - \frac{1}{32} [/tex]
