Answer:

640

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15 out of every 75 fish are more than 30 cm long, the probability of finding a fish more than 30 cm is P(x > 30) = 15/75 = 1/5.

The probability of finding a fish 30 cm or less is P(x ≤ 30) = 1 - P(x > 30)

= 1 - 1/5

= (5 - 1)/5

= 4/5

Since we have 800 fish and the probability of finding a fish 30 cm or less is P(x ≤ 30) = 4/5, then the number of fish in the population that are 30 cm or less in length are 800 × P(x ≤ 30) = 800 × 4/5

= 160 × 4

= 640

So, 640 fish in the population are 30 cm or less in length

What is the value of x in the equation –x = 4 – 3x + 6?
Nataly [62]
Remember you can do anything to an equaiton as long as you do it to both sides


-x=4-3x
add 3x both sides
3x-x=4+3x-3x
2x=4+0
2x=4
divide 2
2x/2=4/2
2/2x=2
1x=2
x=2

Answer:

20 degrees C

Step-by-step explanation:

You would substitute the F with 68 since it is 68 degrees F. Then you would solve the equation. (Subtract 32 from 68=36; multiply 36 by 5/9=20)
