Answer:

<h2>The probability of being all females is 60%.</h2><h2>The probability of being all males is 40%.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 40% of the population is male.

If someone selected 9 students, the probability of being all males is 40%. But, the probability of being all females is 60%, because there are only two genders and females represents the complete set of the given probability.

5w=5×10 to the second power

torisob [31]

Hey there!

5 x w = 10 to the second power . . .

10 x 10 = 100

5 x 100 = 500

5 x w = 500

500 = 5w

w = 100 <-------

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

Solve for x.<br> -(12x-6)=12x+6

AfilCa [17]

-(12x - 6) = 12x + 6

First, distribute the negative sign on the left side.

It is the same as multiplying the quantity in parentheses by -1.

-1(12x - 6) = 12x + 6

-12x + 6 = 12x + 6

Now, subtract 12x from both sides.

-24x + 6 = 6

Subtract 6 from both sides.

-24x = 0

Divide both sides by -24.

x = 0/(-24)

x = 0

Answer: x = 0

A. Write the formula for the area A of a trapezoid. Use b1 and b2 for the lengths of the bases, and use h for the height.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

(a) The formula for the area A of a trapezoid

$A = \frac{1}{2}(b_{1}+ b_{2})h$

(b) Solve the formula for h

$h = \frac{2A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}$

The height h of the trapezoid is 6 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The formula for the area A of a trapezoid

As b₁, b₂ being the lengths of the bases and 'h' is the height.

So, the formula for the area A of a trapezoid

$A = \frac{1}{2}(b_{1}+ b_{2})h$

(b) Solve the formula for h

As the formula for the area A of a trapezoid is

$A = \frac{1}{2}(b_{1}+ b_{2})h$

So, formula for height h of trapezoid

$h = \frac{2A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}$

Using $h = \frac{2A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}$ to find the height h of the trapezoid.

So,

$h = \frac{2A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}$

$h = \frac{2(72)}{16+8}$ ∵b₁ = 16, b₂ = 8, A = 72cm²

$h = \frac{144}{24}$

$h = 6 cm$

So, h = 6 cm

Hence, The height h of the trapezoid will be 6 cm.
