Answer:

1 out of 7 (1/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Do some research. Studies show that an entire 1 billion people smoke. There are about 7 billion people i the world, right? so, the answer of picking a non-smoker is 6/7, and picking a smoker is 1/7. The average (or the probability of them both being smokers) is about 1/ 14 (I think, I hope, I pray)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

${n}^{ - 3} = \frac{1}{8} \\ \\ {n}^{ - 3} = \frac{1}{ {2}^{3} } \\ \\ {n}^{ - 3} = {2}^{ - 3}.. (\because \frac{1}{a^n} = a^{-n}) \\ \\ n = 2 \\(\because exponents \: are \: same\: hence\: \\bases\: will \: also\: be\: equal)$

A girl wants to count the steps of a moving escalator which is going up. If she is going up on it, she counts 60 steps. If she i

Kaylis [27]

Let's V the speed of the girl in step
v the speed of the escalator in step
L the length between ground and floor.

V*60+v*60=L ==> V+v=L/60
V*90-v*90=L ==> V-v=L/90
2V=L(3+2)/180
==>V=5L/360
Time to climb (in step) with v=0 (escalator standing still)
V*t=L==> t=L/V=L/(L*5/360)=72

The girl will count 72 steps.
