All that you are doing is trying to fiigure out the Frequency of all the tally marks!!
When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.
In order to figure this out you need to use
Descartes Rule. I attached a picture showing Descartes Rule. If the signs changes for when x is positive then the number of times it changes are the possible positive solution. If the sign changes when x is negative then the number of times it changes are the possible negative solutions. With that said the answer is A. View the picture I have attached for the possible + - and imaginary solutions.
Answer = A) One possible positive solution.
Pregunta completa:
Al llegar al hotel nos an dado un mapa con los lugares de la ciudad nos dijieron que 5 cm del mapa que representaban 600 metros de la realidad hoy queremos ir a un par que que se encuentra a 8 cm del hotel en el mapa. ¿A qué distancia del hotel está la pareja?
Respuesta: 960m
Explicación paso a paso:
Dado que:
5 cm en el mapa equivale a 600 m en tierra Por lo tanto,
8 cm en el mapa será equivalente a:
5 cm en el mapa - - - - - -> 600 m en el suelo 8cm - - - - - - -> y metros en el suelo
Usando la multiplicación cruzada
y × 5 = 8 × 600
5y = 4800 Luego,
y = 4800/5
y = 960m
Por lo tanto, 8 cm en el mapa serán 960 m en realidad.
