Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. As a fraction: 9/50</u>
  • <u>2. As a proportion: x/1 = 9/50</u>
  • <u>3. As a percentage: 18%</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. As a fraction:</u>

Depart from the definition of probability: probability is the number of favoragle outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes:

  • Probability = number of movie-goers who say they watched a movie on Netflix this week / number of movie-goers that saw a movie this week

  • Probability = 9 / 50

<u>2. As a proportion:</u>

A proportion is the equality of two ratios. In this case you must set the ratio of people who say they watched it on Netflx, x, per every people who saw a movie this week, 1, equal to the ration 9 /50.

Hence, the proportion that shows the probability is:

  • x / 1 = 9 / 50

Where x is the probability.

<u>3. As a percentage</u>

You just have to multiply the probability by 100:

  • (9/50) × 100 = 18%

torisob [31]

Answer:

Answer choice d

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of this triangular prism, you first need to find the area of the triangular base. The formula for the area of a triangle is bh/2, which in this case is 3*2/2=3 square units. Multiplying this by the height of the prism, 3.5, you get a total of 10.5 cubic inches, or answer choice d. Hope this helps!

The mode is the number repeated most often, so if we arrange these numbers in order, we can see what numbers repeat the most-

1 1 1 2 3 3 5 7 8 8 9

The number that repeats the most is 1

(1 counted 3 times)

(3 counted twice)

(8 counted twice)
