Hello!
We can go through each answer to verify whether each is equivalent to 8 : 6.
4 : 3 is equivalent to 8 : 6 because reducing the ratio 8 : 6 by a factor of 2 yields 4 : 3.
6 : 8 is not equivalent to 8 : 6 because the ratio is reversed.
16 : 12 is equivalent to 8 : 6 because the ratio is increased by a factor of 2.
10 : 8 is not equivalent to 8 : 6. We can verify this by checking whether each term was scaled equally:
10 ÷ 8 = 1.25
8 ÷ 6 = 1.33. Therefore, they are unequal.
7 : 5 is not equal to 8 : 6 for the same reason.
The only correct choices are:
4 : 3 and 16 : 12.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Turn 10% into a decimal, so 0.1
160 x 0.1 = 16
Answer and explanation:
Given : Strands Copper wire from a manufacturer are analyzed forstrenghth and conductivity. The Results from 100 strands are as follows :
Strength Strength
High Low
High conductivity 74 8
Low conductivity 15 3
To find :
a) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that is conductivity is high and its strength is high
The favorable outcome is 74
The probability is given by,
b) If a stand is randomly selected, the probability that its conductivity is low or strength is low
Conductivity is low A= 15+3=18
Strength is low B= 8+3=11
Conductivity is low and strength is low 
Probability is given by,
c) Consider the event that a strand low conductivity and the event that the strand has a low strength. Are these tow events mutually exclusive?
Since the events the stand has low conductivity and the stand has low strength are not mutually exclusive, since there exists some cases in which both the events coincide. i.e. Intersection of both the events exists with probability 0.03.
0.0032 is finite because it doesn't go on forever. If that number never ended, it would be infinite. I hope this helps!
