Answer:

Yes, the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equivalent to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be determined as follows:

For Alex, we have:

Number of people who prefer blue = 4

The total asked = 6

Therefore, the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked can be calculated as follows:

Ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked = Number of people who prefer blue / The total asked = 4 / 6 = 0.67

For Jordan, we have:

Number of people who prefer green = 8

The total asked = 12

Therefore, the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked can be calculated as follows:

Ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked = Number of people who prefer green / The total asked = 8 / 12 = 0.67

Conclusion

From the calculations above, we have:

Ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked = Ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked = 0.67

Since the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equal to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked is equal to 0.67, it therefore implies that the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equivalent to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked.

Find the value of y A.y= 2 B.y= 4 square root 3 /3 C.y=4 D.y= 4 square root 3
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  4√3/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

If a right angled triangle with with angles 30°, 60° and 90° then the sides are in the ratio 1 :√3 : 2

<u>To find the value of y</u>

From the figure we can see two right angled triangle.

From the figure we get height 'h' of large triangle is written by,

h : base : 8 = 1 : √3 : 2

Therefore h = 8/2 = 4

Also we can write,

y : h : hypotenuse of small triangle = 1 : √3 : 2

y : 4 : hypotenuse = 1 : √3 : 2

Therefore y = 4/√3 = 4√3/3

The correct answer is option B.  4√3/3

The probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday is 0.8
Ronch [10]

Answer:

The probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days is 0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) be the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days.

Then

P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =

P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) +

P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday)

  • If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he goes on Sunday is 0.3. Then If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday is 1-0.3 =0.7
  • Since the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday is 0.8,

P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) =

P(the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday)×P(If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday)

=0.8×0.7=0.56

  • The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday is 1-0.8=0.2
  • And if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday is 0.9.

Thus, P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday) = P(The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday)×P(if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday)

=0.2×0.9=0.18

Then

P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =0.56 + 0.18 =0.74
