60% of the total (30) can swim
60% of 30 = (60/100)*30 = 0.60*30 = 18
So 18 children can swim
This means 30-18 = 12 cannot swim
---------------------------------------------------------
An alternative is to do it this way:
We know 60% can swim so that means 40% cannot swim.
Notice how 100% - 60% = 40%
Or in other words, the 60% and 40% add to 100%. This is because we have two choices: either the person can swim or cannot swim
Since 40% cannot swim, this means
40% of 30 = (40/100)*30 = 0.40*30 = 12
and we get the same result as before
---------------------------------------------------------
Final Answer: 12
Answer:
-20x+128
Step-by-step explanation:
–8(x – 4) - (12x – 8)
distribute: -8x+32-12x+96
combine like terms
-20x+128
Probability=(number of specific outcomes)/(total number of possible outcomes)
P(!Z)=25/26 as a fraction exact
P(!Z)≈96.2% (approximation to nearest tenth of a percent)
