Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that student is a male Given that it's a senior ::

Recall :

P(A | B) = (AnB) / B

Hence, we have ;

P(male | Senior) = number of (Male n Senior) / total Senoirs

From the table :

Total seniors = 2 + 3 = 5

Male n Seniors = 2

P(male | Senior) = 2 / 5 = 0.4 = 40%

The total of 42 swimmers are competing

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

The ratio of runners to swimmers was 3 : 2
When 28 runners dropped out of the competition, the ratio became 5 : 6

We need to find how many total swimmers are competing

∵ The ratio of runners to swimmers was 3 : 2

- Multiply each term of the ratio by x

∴ There are 3x runners and 2x swimmers

∵ 28 runners dropped out of the competition

∴ The number of runners who complete = 3x - 28

∵ The ratio became 5 : 6

- Equate the ratio between the new number of runners and the

number of swimmers by 5 : 6

∵ The new number of runners = 3x - 28

∵ The number of swimmers = 2x

∴ $\frac{3x-28}{2x}=\frac{5}{6}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 6(3x - 28) = 5(2x)

- Simplify both sides

∴ 18x - 168 = 10x

- Add 168 to both sides

∴ 18x = 10x + 168

- Subtract 10x from both sides

∴ 8x = 168

- Divide both sides by 8

∴ x = 21

∵ The number of swimmers is 2x

∵ x = 21

∴ The number of swimmers = 2(21) = 42

The total of 42 swimmers are competing

What is 15.37×5 show work

just olya [345]

This should be quite easy to explain. So the first thing you want to do is multiply them. This isn't to hard if you know your times tables. Don't worry about the decimal till the end.

15.37
× 5
---------
76.85

15.37 times 5 is 76.85

Now on to the decimal. All you need to do is move it two times to the left. You see how it's in between the 5 and 3? The same goes for your answer. So it is 76.85

I hope this helped!! ^^ I can make this a little more easier to explain if you want me to just in case, ok?
