He surveys 100 students. 29 students select sub sandwiches, 35 select steak and gravy, and 36 select fried chicken. if you select one of these students. What is the probability it will be a student who prefers chicken


Answer choices
A. 7/20
B. 9/25
C. 40%
D.29/100​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36% or  9/25

Step-by-step explanation:

35+36+29=100 so 100-35-29=64 and 36 are left so you divide 9/25 and you get 0.36 and you put it into a percentage and the answer is 36% or  9/25.

Answer 2

The probability it will be a student who prefers chicken is, 36/100.

What is probability?

Probability is a mathematical term, which can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event. The possibility that an event will occur is measured by probability.

Probability of Event = Favorable Outcomes/Total Outcomes = X/n

Given that,

He surveys 100 students,

29 students select sub sandwiches,

35 select steak and gravy,

and 36 select fried chicken

The probability of selecting a student who prefers fried chicken can be found by dividing the number of students who prefer chicken by the total number of students surveyed:

36/100 = 36%.

This can also be expressed as a decimal or a percentage:

0.36 or 36%.

help me solve for t please

Answers

Answer:

t = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

for this problem we have two different shapes, what we need to do is find out the proportional relationship between the two to solve for t, lets take one of the measurements from the smaller shape, we will go with... JK at 5

now all we need to do is divide that by the larger shapes same side, in this case that would be RP at 22.5, heres what that looks like so far

5 / 22.5 = 0.2-> (the two goes on forever, normally this is represented by a line above the infinite number, this is what they call a Repeating Decimal)

ok, so now that we have the rate of change between the two shapes figured out, now we just make the same change to the last side from the same side on the first shape, wich is LK to QR as shown

1.5 * 0.2-> = 0.3->

and if 0.3 is = to 1/3, so t = 1/3

i hope this helped you out, im sorry if im a little late lol, make note that all of this can be applied to similar situations, just figure out the change(s) that happened from one shape to the other, and make that same change on the unknown side or area

Give your answer in the form y=mx+c

Answers

Answer:

y = -5x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the standard form of an equation as y=mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Using the coordinate points

(1, 0) and (0,-5)

m = -5-0/0+1

m = -5/1

m = -5

Get the intercept

Intercept is the point where thee line cuts the y axis. intercept is -5

Get the equation:

Recall that y = mx+c

y = -5x + -5

y = -5x - 5

This gives the required equation

If a1=10 and an=an-1+4 then find the value of a5

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term is the previous with 4 added to it.

a1 = 10, a2 = 14, a3 = 18, a4 = 22, a5 = 26

The value of [tex]a_{5}[/tex] will be equal to 26 .

It is given that [tex]a_{1}[/tex]= 10 and [tex]a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 4[/tex].

We have to find the value of [tex]a_{5}[/tex].

What do you mean by sequences ?

Sequences are a list of numbers which are arranged in a special manner i.e., 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 numbers of this sequence gets increased by 2 every time.

As per the question ;

The first term ;  [tex]a_{1}[/tex]= 10

and given ;

[tex]a_{n} = a_{n-1} + 4[/tex]

So ;

2nd term will be ;

[tex]a_{2} = a_{1} + 4[/tex]

[tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 10 + 4

or

[tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 14

Now ;

3rd term will be ;

[tex]a_{3} = a_{2} + 4[/tex]

[tex]a_{3} = 14 + 4[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 18  

Hence , the common difference is d = 4.

So ;

4th term will be ;

[tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 18 + 4

[tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 22

and

5th term will be ;

[tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 22 + 4

[tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 26

Thus , the value of [tex]a_{5}[/tex] will be equal to 26 .

Solve for w,x,y and z

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2y - 6 + y = 180   {Co-interior angles}

3y - 6   = 180

      3y = 180 + 6

     3y = 186

       y = 186/3

       y = 62

y + w = 180     {Linear pair}

62 +w = 180

       w = 180 - 62

        w = 118

ΔILK ,

∠L +  ∠ I + ∠K = 180  {Angle sum property of triangle}

w + z + 30 = 180

118 + z + 30 = 180

     z +  148  = 180

               z =180-  148

                z = 32

x = z    {Alternate interior angles}

x = 32

how to solve improper fraction of 4/5 - 1/4???

Answers

they aren’t improper tho?
4/5 - 1/4
find a common denominator
it would be 20
4/20 - 1/20
change the numerator too
16/20 - 5/20
it would give you 11/20

Answer:

11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find a common denominator between the two fractions, 4 and 5 can both equal 20 so we change the denominators to 20, 4/5 =16/20 since whatever we multiply on the bottom we multiply on the top, now for 1/4 we change it to 5/20. Now for the question, we subtract since that's what it's asking, so 16/20 - 5/20, 16 - 5 equals 11 and the denominators stay the same so the answer would be 11/20
