There are 4 boys and 12 students in total. It would be 4/12, but if it was to be simplified, it would be 1/3. The probability of a boy being selected is 1/3.

The frequency table shows the results of tossing a number cube 50 times. Which statement
Paul [167]

Answer:

Option (1) is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given frequency table,

Option (1).

Tossing an even number is more likely than tossing an odd number.

Frequencies of tossing even numbers 2, 4, 6 = 10, 10, 9

Frequencies of tossing odd numbers 1, 3, 5 = 8, 6, 7

Which shows frequencies of tossing even numbers are more.

Therefore, Option (1) is correct.

Option (2)

The number 2 will be the next number tossed.

Since it is unpredictable, therefore, this option is incorrect.

Option (3)

Number 4 is half as likely to be tossed as the number 3.

Frequency of tossing number 3 = 6

Frequency of tossing 4 = 10

Frequency of tossing 3 is not the half of tossing 4.

Therefore, Option (3) is incorrect.

Option (4)

Probability of tossing the number 2 = \frac{\text{Frequency of tossing 2}}{\text{Total frequency}}

                                                           = \frac{10}{8+10+6+10+7+9}

                                                           = \frac{10}{50}

                                                           = \frac{1}{5}

Therefore, option (4) is incorrect.

of the students in your class, 12% are left-handed. What fraction of the students are left-handed? Are there more right-handed o
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

<em><u>The answer here is 3/25, more left handed students.</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

12/100 are left handed, which reduces to 3/25. This means that there are only 3 left handed kids for every 22 right handed kids, showing that there are more right handed students than left handed.

Which logarithmic graph can be used to approximate the value of y in the equation 4^y = 5?
Sloan [31]
4^{y} = 5&#10;&#10;log_{4}(4)^{y} = log_{4}(5)&#10;&#10;y=log_{4}(5)&#10;&#10;So, the graph of the function should  be y=log_{4}(x), or f(x)= log_{4}(x)&#10;&#10;Correct answer is the last one.
