e students at Keisel Middle School. There are 5 times as many right-handed female students as there are left-handed female students, and there are 9 times as many right-handed male students as there are left-handed male students. if there is a total of 18 left-handed students and 122 right-handed students in the school, which of the following is closest to the probability that a right-handed student selected at random is female? (Note: Assume that none of the eighth-grade students are both right-handed and left-handed.)
A) 0.410
B) 0.357
C) 0.333

Answer:

The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=18

5x+9y=122

When you solve this system of equations, you get x=10 and y=8. Thus, 5*10, or 50, of the 122 right-handed students are female. Therefore, the probability that a right-handed student selected at random is female is

50/122

which to the nearest thousandth is 0.410.

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither. u = <6, -2>, v = <8, 24>
ratelena [41]
We'll check if they're orthogonal:
u*v=0
(6,-2)*(8,24)=0
6*8+(-2)*24=0
48-48=0
0=0
they are orthogonal vectors
