9514 1404 393

Answer:

  175

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g represent the number of girls. Then 280-g is the number of boys. Their ratio is ...

  boys/girls = 3/5 = (280-g)/g

Clearing fractions gives ...

  3g = 5(280 -g)

  8g = 1400 . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 5g

  g = 175 . . . . . . . divide by 8

There are 175 girls in the grade 3 classes at Domino Primary School.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Jason Inherit a land with a 45% chance of having oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

 The probability of the land having oil is = P ( O) = 45 /100

The probability of the land having oil is= Q(O ) =55/100

The machine has an accuracy of 80%. This suggests that 8 out of 10 times the machine will give a wrong reading.

The probability of the correct reading is=  P(M)=80/100

The probability of the incorrect reading is=Q(M)=20/100

The case when the machine predicts there is no oil and there is indeed oil can be calculated:Probability=Probability of oil present  ×  probability of the incorrect reading

Probability=P(O) x Q(M)

Probability=45/100 x 20/100

Probability=9/100

The probability of the test predicting no oil in land and the land has oil is  0.09 or 9%

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(27). f−1(27) = 1 f−1(27) = 3 f−1(27) = 9 f−1(27) = 81
Mariulka [41]
Fun fact
if f(a)=b then f⁻¹(b)=a
so
if f⁻¹(b)=a then f(a)=b
 
so we find f(x)=27 and the solve for x

f(x)=3x=27
3x=27
divide both sides by 3
x=9

so if f(9)=27 then f⁻¹(27)=9
problem solved

answer is 9
