584 is the total number of students in the school.
5/8 are in seventh grade and 3/8 are in eighth grade.
4/5 of the seventh graders participated in the track meet, so there were (4/5 · 5/8) · 584 students in the seventh grade participating in the track meet.
7/8 of the eighth graders participated, so there were (7/8 · 3/8) · 584 students in the eighth grade participating in the track meet.
So, all together, there were
(4/5 · 5/8) · 584 + (7/8 · 3/8) · 584 students from the school in the track meet.
Let's simplify as you asked:
(4/5 · 5/8) · 584 + (7/8 · 3/8) · 584 = [(4/5 · 5/8) + (7/8 · 3/8)] · 584 (distributive property - factoring)
= [20/40 + 21/64] · 584 (multiply fractions)
= (1/2 + 21/64) 584 (reduce the first fraction to lowest terms)
= (32/64 + 21/64) 584 (getting a common denominator)
= (53/64) 584 (combine/add the two fractions)
= 483.625 (multiply together)
All together, there were: 483.625 students in the meet.
The answer is 1.52. all you have to do is multiply
Usually the median is defined by the middle number, so without any doubts I can say that due to the fact that half of population has zero effect the overall index is zero. Hope it is clear that the last ( D.The median debt is zero because more than half of credit card debts are zero.) option is the only correct answer whereas the others ones are wrong.
Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events
The probability that a randomly selected person with multiple jobs is a male or married is 0.782
<h3>How to determine the probability</h3>
The given parameters are:
Sample size, n = 655
Male = 381
Married = 299
Male and Married = 168
The number of those that are male or married is calculated as:
Male or Married = Male + Married - Male and Married
So, we have:
Male or Married = 381 + 299 - 168
Evaluate
Male or Married = 512
The probability is then calculated as:
p = 512/655
Evaluate
p = 0.782
Hence, the probability that a randomly selected person with multiple jobs is a male or married is 0.782
