Answer:

B. 3/5 and 9/15

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking for a proportion, you must look at a ratio that equals the same like:

1/2 = 2/4

You could see that I would just have to multiply or divide the numbers by 2.

So, that means they doubled.

3/5 = 9/15

How would you get 9 from 3? You would multiply by 3 to get 9.

Therefore, to check if it is a proportion, multiply with the same number you used to multiply the first number, which would be 3.

5 × 3 = 15.

Since 15 is written in the ratio, B would be the correct answer.

Therefore, B is the Correct Answer.

Approximately 18% of the population of California is 70 years or older. In a random sample of 4, what is the provability for 3 o

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The correct response will be "0.01913".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

p - P(70 years or older)

= 0.18

n = 4

X = no. of individuals who are older than 70 years

Now,

∴ $P(X=r)=n_C_r \ p^r(1-p)^{n-r}$

∴ $P(X=3)=4_C_3(0.18)^3(1-0.18)^{4-3}$

$=4\times (0.18)^3(0.82)^1$

$=0.01913$
