Answer:

<h3>1/16</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Number of event/ Total outcome of sample space

Since there are 8 teachers in a school, the Total outcome = 8

If four of the teachers will be selected at random to lead a student field trip,

Probability of selecting first female teacher = 4/8 = 1/2

Probability of selecting 2nd female teacher = 4/8 = 1/2

Probability of selecting 3rd female teacher = 4/8 = 1/2

Probability that all of the teachers selected will be female = 1/2* 1/2* 1/2* 1/2

Probability that all of the teachers selected will be female = 1/16

Given:

The graph of an exponential function.

To find:

The function in the form of f(x)=ab^x.

Solution:

The general form of an exponential function is

f(x)=ab^x                ...(i)

From the given graph it is clear that the function passes through the points (0,4) and (1,7). It means these points will satisfy the function.

For x=0 and f(x)=4,

4=ab^0

4=a(1)

4=a

For x=1 and f(x)=7,

7=ab^1

Putting a=4, we get

7=4(b)

\dfrac{7}{4}=b

Substitute a=4 and b=\dfrac{7}{4} in (i).

f(x)=4\left(\dfrac{7}{4}\right)^x

Therefore, the required exponential function is f(x)=4\left(\dfrac{7}{4}\right)^x.

At a birthday party, the ratio of children to adults is 4:1. If the average time for the three-legged race for adults was 1 minu
zaharov [31]

Answer: The maximum the average can be for all the guests at the birthday party is 2 minutes 57 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of adults to children is 4:1, then it follows that:

4/5 of the people are children

1/5 of the people are adults

A weighed average of the times would give:

1 minute 25 seconds = 85 seconds [for 1/5 of the people (the adults)]

3 minutes 20 seconds = 200 seconds [for 4/5 of the people (the children)]

(85 x 1/5) + (200 x 4/5) = 177 seconds

Therefore, the maximum the average can be for all the guests at the birthday party is 2 mins 57 secs.
