Answer:

12 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

24 ÷ 2 = 12

(This is divided to find out 1 part of the whole class as ⅓)

⅓ = 12

1 (whole) take away ⅔ = ⅓

Since ⅔ + ⅓ = 1

⅓ = fraction of girls in class

1 part = 12

So ⅓ = 12 girls out of 36 total students

Hope this helps. :)

In Wellington, a city of 360,000 citizens, there has been an outbreak of vampires and werewolves There are 3,000 people infected

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

0.0286 or 2.86%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people that have werewolfism is 21,000.

Of those 21,000, 600 also have vampirism, while the remaining 20,400 do not. Therefore, the probability that someone has vampirism, given that they have werewolfism is:

$P(V|W)=\frac{N_{V\cap W}}{N_W}\\P(V|W)=\frac{600}{21,000} \\P(V|W)=0.0286=2.86\%$

The probability is 0.0286 or 2.86%.

Answer:

KM = 50 mm , ∠ K = 104°

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that KM = KL = 50mm ( congruent legs )

This indicates the triangle is isosceles with base angles congruent, both 38°

∠ K = 180° - (38 + 38)° = 180° - 76° = 104°
