To solve this you must use a proportion like so...

\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{part}{whole}

The total number of students that can be chosen are 4,663. This number will represent the whole of one fraction in the proportion. We want to know what percent probability out of these students are engineer, medical doctor/surgeon. This would be considered the part of this fraction. Sum the number of engineering students (615) with medical doctors/surgeons (723) to find this number

723 + 615 = 1,338 students that want to be an engineer or medical doctor/surgeon

Percent's are always taken out of the 100. This means that the other fraction in the proportion will have 100 as the whole and x (the unknown) as the part.

Here is your proportion:

\frac{1,338}{4,663} =\frac{x}{100}

Now you must cross multiply

1,338*100 = 4,663*x

133,800 = 4,663x

To isolate x divide 4,663 to both sides

133,800/4,663 = 4,663x/4,663

28.7 = x

This means that there is a 28.7% of a student with the intent of becoming an engineer or a medical doctor/surgeon to be chosen at random

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table, we see that there are 615 students vying for engineering, and 723 for medical doctor / surgeon for a total of 1338 out of a total of 4663.

So the probability of a prospective engineer or medical doctor or surgeon from the given sample is

1338 / 4663 = 28.7% (to the tenth of a percent)

Answer:

Angle G = 76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

66 + 2x + x = 180

66 + 3x = 180

3x = 114

x = 38

Help Please What’s The Answer!!

Answer:

c) (6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find a slope is y=mx-b where m is the slope (to find the slope you find the change in y and the change in x) which in this case is -3. The change in y is -3 and the change in x is -1. If you put it on a graph the line is going down from left to right and it intersects the y-axis at 18 meaning if you keep sloping down in a straigt line it intersects the x-axis at (6,0).

We have that
<span>1/4 x + 2/3 y = 5 ----> multiply by 12 both sides---> 3x+8y=60
1/2 x + 3/2 y = 11---> multiply by 2 both sides----> x+3y=22

therefore

the answer is the option
</span><span>B. 3x + 8y = 60 ; x + 3y = 22</span>

Which geometric object is defined as the set of all points in a plane at a given distance from a given point
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Circle

Step-by-step explanation:

This object is what we call "circle". All the points in the circle are at the same distance from a given point which is the center of the circle. Moreover, the distance between the center and every point on the circle is called "radius". Higher values for the radius imply points at a higher distance from the center.

Additionally, we can calculate the perimeter of the circle, or the circumference, with the following formula:

circumference = 2*(radius) pi

Where pi is an irrational number usually used as 3.14.

If you have doubts, try to draw a circle and measure the distance between the center and any point on the circle.
