HELP PLEASE I DON'T UNDERSTAND

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing you need to do is to check if the sample data has also that 40% cycling boys, since the information you are given is not exact is "about 40%".

I did it counting in excel so not to miscount by accident, and the result was 54 numbers bellow 4 and 150 total numbers.

That comes down to 54/150 or 0.36, so in this particular set of data only 36% of the boys commute by cycle.

Now, this gives us a probability of 36% of finding a boy who commutes by bicycle on the first pick, but we want to know the probability of 3 failures and then a success. This is represented by p=0.36 and q=0.64, where q is the probability of failure on the first try.

This means that the event will occur on the first trial with probability p. If that fails, then it will occur on the next trial with a probability of (1−p)p or q*p. If that also fails, then continuing on, the probability of the event happening on the third trial is (1-p)^{2}p or q^{2} p.  If we go on and on we can see that the probability of the first success on the nth trial is (1-p)^{n}p or q^{n}p. If n=4 then the probability would be:

P=q^{4}p=0.64^{4} *0.36=0.1678*0.36=0.0604

P=6.04%

If I counted correctly, the answer would be 52/150. You just need to simplify the fraction. I'll recount soon, and update if it changes.

jeka94

Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Evan had 120 baseball cards. He gave 18 of them to his friend and the rest to his brother.

The number of baseball cards he gave to his brother is :

120 - 18 = 102 baseball cards

The percent of the baseball cards he gave to his brother is calculated as:

(Number of baseball cards given to his brother/ Total number of baseball cards) × 100

= 102/120 × 100

= 85%

The percent of baseball cards Evans gave his brother is 85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Hypotenuse = 9.4 m

Base = 7.8 m

Find:

Perpendicular H

Computation:

Perpendicular H = √Hypotenuse² - Base²

Perpendicular H = √9.4² - 7.8²

Perpendicular H = √Hypotenuse² - Base²

Perpendicular H = 5.244 m (Approx)

2x+5y=-21 , -2x+3y+-27
Elis [28]

Answer:

x=4.5 and y=  -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y= -21

-2x+3y= -27

add the two equations: 8y= -48

y=-48/8= -6

sub for y in 2x+5y= -21

2x + 5(-6)=-21, 2x-30= -21

2x= -21+30= 9

x= 9/2=4.5

How do you find the slope of a line?<br><br> (Change in Y / Change in X)
sukhopar [10]
In order to find the slope of a line, u must use the slope formula. Which is (y2-y1/x2-x1). For example if you had a set of coordinates that are (6,4) and (2,8) you would first sub the 8 from4 which gives you 4. The u do the same with 2 and 6 which gives u 4. After that you divide 4 by 4. and your answer is 1
