You need to do the following equation:
(5/12)*(3/10)
5*3=15
12*10=120
15/120=5/40 of the adults who visited were men.
The answer of this question is 1
Answer:
The probability is 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 40 girls that are surveyed and 20 prefer chocolate. If you write that as a fraction 20/40, it simplifies to 1/2.
So to find the answer you want to isolate the y. So the first thing you want to do is to move everything to the opposite side of the = sign. You start by adding 10 to both sides.
10+ 5y -10 = -25 +10
5y = -15.
the tens cancel out on the left side and on the right you get left with -15/
Since y is being multiplied by 5 you always want to do the opposite so you divide by 5.
5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3
It's hard to explain but you just have to remember that what you do to one side you must do to the other to keep the equation balanced.
