Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of names called last week = 1/4 of a page

Fraction called this week = 1/2 of a page

The number of pages worth of people called ;

This is an addition problem, as the total will be the sum. Of the fractions called this week and last week

Hence,

Total page worth of names called :

(1/4 + 1/2) = (1 + 2) / 4 = 3/4

i have a bag of trail mix. One half of the bag is peanuts, one quarter of the bag is chocolate candies and one quarter of the ba
Sonja [21]
It’s easier to see with actual numbers therefore, since you are not given a total, say there are 20
Which means, 10 are peanuts, 5 are chocolate candies and 5 are dried fruit.
Out of the 20 options, there are 5 that are the chocolate candies.
This means there is a 5 in 20 chance you will pick the chocolate candies.
5/20 = ¼ (i.e. the likelihood to pick one is the same as the fraction of chocolate candies the bag contains)

A survey of athletes at a high school is conducted, and the following facts are discovered: 13% of the athletes are football pla
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The probability that an athlete chosen is either a football player or a basketball player is 56%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the athletes which are Football player be 'A'

Let the athletes which are Basket ball player be 'B'

Given:

Football players (A) = 13%

Basketball players (B) = 52%

Both football and basket ball players = 9%

We need to find probability that an athlete chosen is either a football player or a basketball player.

Solution:

The probability that athlete is a football player = P(A)= \frac{13}{100}=0.13

The probability that athlete is a basketball player = P(B)= \frac{52}{100}=0.52

The probability that athlete is both basket ball player and  football player = P(A\cap B) = \frac{9}{100}=0.09

We have to find the probability that an athlete chosen is either a football player or a basketball player P(A\cup B).

Now we know that;

P(A\cup B)= P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B) = 0.13+0.52-0.09=0.56\\\\P(A\cup B) = \frac{0.56}{100}=56\%

Hence The probability that an athlete chosen is either a football player or a basketball player is 56%.

If the center of dilation is at the origin, by what scale factor was octagon ABCDEFGH dilated?
motikmotik

C. 4

Look at where segment A'B' intersects, at x = 8.

Look at where segment AB intersects, at x = 2.

AB is smaller then A'B' that means the scale factor is

A'B'/AB=\frac{8}{2}=4.

Hope this helps.
