Answer:
x=17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-3)/(x+2)=1/5
cross product
1(x+2)=5(x-3)
x+2=5x-15
5x-x-15=2
4x-15=2
4x=2+15
4x=17
x=17/4
The chance of student 1's birthday being individual is 365/365 or 100%.
Then the chance of student 2's birthday being different is 364/365.
Then it's narrowed down to 363/365 for student 3 and so on until you get all 10 students.
If you multiply all these values together, the probability would come out at around 0.88305182223 or 0.88.
To get all the same birthday you'd have to the chance of one birthday, 1/365 and multiply this by itself 10 times. This will produce a very tiny number. In standard form this would be 2.3827x10'-26 or in normal terms: 0.23827109210000000000000000, so very small.
Answer:
Hey there!
There are 3+4+6+3, or 16 females.

Thus, the percent is 3/16, or 19%
Let me know if this helps :)
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find k when y=kx
2y = 20x
Divide each side by 2
2y/2 =20x/2
y = 10x
The constant of proportionality is 10
Answer:
Number of small boxes shipped = 7
Number of large boxes shipped = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of small boxes = s
And the number of large boxes = l
Weight of small box = 25 pound
Weight of the large box = 50 pounds
Total weight of the shipment = 925 pounds
Therefore, equation for the weight of shipment will be,
25s + 50l = 925
s + 2l = 37 ----- (1)
Total number of boxes shipped = 22 boxes
Therefore, equation will be,
s + l = 22 ------(2)
Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)
(s + 2l) - (s + l) = 37 -22
l = 15
From equation (2)
s + 15 = 22
s = 7
Therefore, number of small boxes shipped = 7
Number of large boxes shipped = 15
