This problem involves the career plans of students in a biology class. Assume that the class consists of 40 percent freshmen, 10

percent sophomores, 30 percent juniors, and 20 percent seniors. Assume further that 40 percent of the freshmen, 30 percent of the sophomores, 35 percent of the juniors, and 20 percent of the seniors plan to go to medical school. One student is selected at random from the class. (1) What is the probability that the student plans to go to medical school

Answer:

0.335 = 33.5% probability that the student plans to go to medical school

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the probability that the student plans to go to medical school?

Sum of:

40% of 40%(freshmen)

30% of 10%(sophomores)

35% of 30%(juniors)

20% of 20%(seniors)

So

p = 0.4*0.4 + 0.3*0.1 + 0.35*0.3 + 0.2*0.2 = 0.335

0.335 = 33.5% probability that the student plans to go to medical school

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is the first option:  

y=-4x+64

<h2>Why?</h2>

To write the equation of the line in slope-interception  form we need to extract all the information that we need from the graphic.

We must remember that the slope-interception form of the lines is:

y=mx+b

Where,

y, is the function

m, is the slope of the line

x, is the variable

b, is the y-axis intercept

We can find the slope using the following formula:

m=\frac{ChangeInY}{ChangeInX}

Which is for this case:

m=\frac{64}{16}=4

As we can see from the graphic, the line is decresing, so the sign of the slope "m" will be negative, so:

m=-4

We can find the value of "b" seeing where the line intercepts the y-axis.

As we can see it intercept the y-axis at:  y=64

Then, now that we already know the value of "m" and "b", we can write the equation of the line:

y=mx+b=-4x+64\\y=-4x+64

So, the correct option is the first option:

y=-4x+64

Have a nice day!

Factor completely: 45x3 + 123x + 104x + 28
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

 45x^3 + 123x^2 + 104x + 28

=(45x^3 + 60x^2 + 20x) + (63x^2 + 84x + 28)

=5x(9x^2 + 12x + 4) + 7(9x^2 + 12x + 4)

=(5x + 7)(9x^2 + 12x + 4)

=(5x + 7)(3x + 2)^2

=> Option D is correct

Hope this helps!
