In Mr. Smith's 7th Hour class there are 16 boys and
7 girls. What is the
probability of randomly
selecting a boy?

binomial(16 + 7, 16) 2^(-(16 + 7)) = ((16 + 7)!)/(16! 7! 2^(16 + 7)) = 245157/8388608 ≈ 0.02922 ≈ 1/34.22

(assuming children are independent and male and female are equally likely)

| probability

less than 16 boys | 0.9534

16 or less boys | 0.9827

more than 16 boys | 0.01734

16 or more boys | 0.04657

fraction of boys | 16/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.695652

fraction of girls | 7/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.304348

expected value | 11.5

standard deviation | 2.398

variance | 5.75

11.5

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.
