The incomplete table above summarizes the number of left-handed students and right-handed students by gender for the eighth grad

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
D) 0.250

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.

The altitude of the base of a cloud
natima [27]

The height of the ceiling is 162.31 meters

The situation will form a right angle triangle.

<h3>Right angle triangle:</h3>

Right triangle has one of its angles as 90 degree. Therefore, the sides can be found using trigonometric ratios

The triangle formed, the theodolite distance from the spotlight is the  adjacent side. Therefore,

tan 62.7 = opposite / adjacent

tan 62.7 = x / 83

cross multiply

x = 83 × tan 62.7

x = 160.809554025 m

Therefore, the height of the ceiling form the ground is as follows:

  • 160.809554025 + 1.5 = 162.309554025 m

The two dot plots below compare the forearm lengths of two groups of schoolchildren:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Group A, because seven children have a forearm length longer than 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the dot plots based on the given information (please see attached images).

Group A = blue dots

Group B = red dots

From inspection of the attached dot plots, we can see that Group A appears to have the longer average forearm length.  This is because 7 children have a forearm length of longer than 10 inches.

To calculate the average forearm length, sum all data values and divide by the total number of data values.

\textsf{Average of Group A}=\dfrac{ 3 \times 10 + 4 \times 11 + 3 \times 12}{10}=11

\textsf{Average of Group B}=\dfrac{ 3 \times 9 + 5\times 10+ 2\times 11}{10}=9.9

Thus proving that Group A has the longer average former length.

What multiplication expression can be broken apart into (3x4) + (3x4) using the distributive property
Anna007 [38]
The original expression here might be (4x3) + (4x3). This is because the distributive property simply moves around numbers, but will not change the value of the equation, as in the question we are looking at here.
