Answer:
6.9%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a university class has 26 students: 12 are art majors, 9 are history majors, 5 and are nursing majors, and the professor is planning to select two of the students for a demonstration, where the first student will be selected at random, and then the second student will be selected at random from the remaining students, to determine what is the probability that the first student selected is a history major and the second student is a nursing major the following calculations must be performed:
26 = 100
9 = X
9 x 100/26 = X
900/26 = X
34.61 = X
25 = 100
5 = X
500/25 = X
20 = X
0.2 x 0.3461 = X
0.069 = X
Thus, the probability that the first student selected is a history major and the second student is a nursing major is 6.9%.
To represent the change in points, you can think of it in two ways:
1. You will go down 25 points for every wrong answer, so -25 + -25 + -25 would represent what is happening. They are all negative, so you keeping moving down in value.
2. You can also think of this as 3 groups of -25.
Both answers are -75. The answer is negative because the change was down in points.
-75 is the integer that represents this situation.
Answer:
1,250 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2,000 in 1 ton, so 5 * 2,000 = 10,000 lbs weight limit for the bridge.
10,000-8750 = 1,250 lbs can be added to the truck before they reach the bridge weight limit.
