2/7 of the people watching a football game are children. 3/8 of the children are girls.
2 answers:
Answer:
(a) 3/28
(b) 5/28
(c) 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) To find 3/8 ths of 2/7, multiply the fractions:
(b) The sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes is 1.
Therefore, if 3/8 of the children are girls, then 1 - 3/8 are boys:
So again, multiply 5/8 by 2/7 to find 5/8ths of 2/7:
(c) The sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes is 1.
Therefore, if 2/7 of the people watching the football game are children, then 1 - 2/7 are not children:

Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1. What equation is solved by the graphed systems of equations?
Two linear equations that intersect at the point (-1, -4)=(x,y)→x=-1, y=-4
a. 7x + 3 = x + 3
Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:
7x+3-x=x+3-x
6x+3=3
Subtracting 3 both sides of the equation:
6x+3-3=3-3
6x=0
Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6=0/6
Dividing:
x=0 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.
b. 7x − 3 = x − 3
Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:
7x-3-x=x-3-x
6x-3=-3
Adding 3 both sides of the equation:
6x-3+3=-3+3
6x=0
Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6=0/6
Dividing:
x=0 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.
c. 7x + 3 = x − 3
Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:
7x+3-x=x-3-x
6x+3=-3
Subtracting 3 both sides of the equation:
6x+3-3=-3-3
6x=-6
Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6=-6/6
Dividing:
x=-1 equal to the intersection at x=-1, then this is the equation.
d. 7x − 3 = x + 3
Solving for x: Grouping the x's on the left side of the equation: Subtracting x both sides of the equation:
7x-3-x=x+3-x
6x-3=3
Adding 3 both sides of the equation:
6x-3+3=3+3
6x=6
Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6=6/6
Dividing:
x=1 different to the intersection at x=-1, then this is not the equation.
