Answer:

Interestingly, the likelihood of a randomly chosen student being a female is <u><em>0.58</em></u> at this school.

Step-by-step explanation:

This school features more female students than male students. <em>Consequently, if resources are allocated equally (because it has been found that both female and male male students are similarly likely to be involved), the number of female students involved in after-school athletics programs is greater than the number of male students and could clarify the facilities issues.</em>

Answer:

The copy machine makes 87.5 copies in one minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation to divide 4 into 350. This is because in order to know how many copies is being made in 1 minute, you need to determine the rate of copies per minute.

350 divided by 4 is 87.5.

What you gotta take from this problem:

What Joe got during break = $2t+2$

What his sister gave him = $3t$

What he has total = 10 tadpoles.

Now to assemble this equation:

$2t+2+3t=10$

Now combine like terms to get $5t+2=10$

Subtract 2 on each side of the equation to get $5t=8$

Now you would divide 5 on each side and get $t=1.6$ , however since you can't have a .6 of a tadpole, you would have to round it up to 2.
