If and only if it is a proportional relationship, the problem can be solved by creating a proportion of B1/T1=B2/T2. This can also be expressed as 4.5/3.5=5.4/x given the values. You must cross multiply, so 4.5x=3.5(5.4). This simplifies to x=4.2. So, the tail length would be 4.2 feet.

Hope this helps.

Selina is playing a game that uses the spinner below.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A) 12.5%

B) 50%

C) 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, 7 is one of the 8 possibilities (1/8). 1/8 of 100 is 12.5, so your chance of spinning a 7 is 12.5%

For B, even numbers are 4/8 or 1/2 of your options. 1/2 of 100 is 50, so your chance of spinning an even number is 50%

For C, there are 4 out of 8 numbers that are prime (2,3,5, & 7).

4/8 or 1/2 of 100 is 50, so your chance of spinning a prime number is 50%

hope this helps

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

a) 29.23% probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field

b) 29.23% probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field, which is not lower than 5% nor it is higher than 95%. So it was not unusual for this player to hit a home run to right field.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes. It is said to be unusual if it is lower than 5% or higher than 95%.

(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field?

Desired outcomes:

19 home runs hit to right field

Total outcomes:

65 home runs

19/65 = 0.2923

29.23% probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field

(b) Was it unusual for this player to hit a home run to right field?

29.23% probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field, which is not lower than 5% nor it is higher than 95%. So it was not unusual for this player to hit a home run to right field.
