$\text{Hello there!}\\\\\text{Point estimates would be represented as:}\,\,p=\frac{x}{t}\\\\\text{"x" would represent the value you know}\\\\\text{"t" would represent your total}\\\\\text{To find your point value, you would divide 220 by 300}\\\\220\div300=0.73333333\\\\\text{Round to the nearest thousandths place}\\\\\boxed{0.733}$

Un curso esta formado por 12 mujeres y 15 hombres ¿cual es la probabilidad de que las personas en el cargo de presidente y visep

Answer:

P = (12/27)*(11/26) = 0.188

Step-by-step explanation:

Si todos tienen la misma probabilidad de estar en cargo de presidente y vicepresidente, entonces:

La probabilidad de que una mujer sea presidente, es igual al cociente entre el número de mujeres y el número total de personas:

p = 12/27

Ahora queremos calcular lo mismo para vicepresidente, y el cálculo es exactamente igual, con la diferencia de que en esta situación, ya hay una mujer en el cargo de presidente, entonces hay 11 mujeres que pueden ser vicepresidente, y un total de: (11 + 15 = 26 personas)

Entonces ahora la probabilidad es:

q = 11/26

La probabilidad conjunta (es decir, la probabilidad de que ambos eventos pasen) es igual al producto de las probabilidades individuales.

P = (12/27)*(11/26) = 0.188

Please answer math question

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

y = -4x + 9

O.R. y = 9- 4x

(both answers are equivalent, the same)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. finding gradient of perpendicular line to the equation given.

2. use the point provided in the wuestion and substitute it into the linear form of your slope-intercept form, which in my country is called the linear form, meaning straight line graph.

3. get answers by finding the y-intercept of the equation wanted.

note:

y = mx + c is how and what i use in my school as the linear form, altho every school is different and I understand that, so do check again with your teacher if it is how you do such type of questions.
