Answer:
The answer is a). 5/24.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the seventh graders there are 4 Boys + 2 Girls which totals 6 students.
- The probability that a girl will be picked from the <em>seventh graders is 2/6</em>
For the eighth graders, there are 3 Boys + 5 Girls which totals 8 students
- The probability that a girl will be picked from the <em>eighth graders is 5/8</em>
To find the<u> probability that both are girls</u>, we multiply the two fractions together:
M=4
first we take the 4.5 to the other side and we also take the 12 to other side so we get
1.5m=6
we divided each side we get m=4
The point (a,b) would be in quadrant 2 (the one on the top left)
