A group of adults and students went on a class trip to Washington, DC. The number of male students was 1 more than 7 times the n

algol [13]

Alright.
So let's say the number of adults is x.
Therefore, the number of boys is 7x + 1.
And then the total amount of girls is 3.5x + 0.5
So then:
x + 7x + 1 + 3.5x + 0.5 = 82
11.5x + 1.5 = 82
11.5x = 80.5
x = 7
So now we can figure out the number of male and female students.
Male students = 7x + 1
7*7 + 1
49 + 1
50
Male Students = 50
Female students = half of 50
50/2 = 25
Female Students = 25

A factory produces 80,000 candies each day. They produce equal quantities of four favors: cherry,lemon,orange,and strawberry. Th

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

0.25 is the probability that the randomly selected candy is orange.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of candies = 80,000

Four equal number of flavored candies:

cherry,lemon,orange,and strawberry

Thus, number of orange candies =

$= \dfrac{\text{Total number of candies}}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{80000}{4} = 20000$

Thus, 20,000 orange flavored candies are produced.

$\text{Probability} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

P(orange) =

$=\dfrac{\text{Number of orange candies}}{\text{Total number of candies}}\\\\=\dfrac{20000}{80000} = \dfrac{1}{4} = 0.25$

0.25 is the probability that the randomly selected candy is orange.
