we know that

Each meter of ribbon cost $\$0.46$

by proportion

Find the cost of $3.2$ meters of ribbon

$\frac{0.46}{1} \frac{\$}{meter} =\frac{x}{3.2} \frac{\$}{meter} \\ \\x=3.2*0.46 \\ \\x=\$1.472$

therefore

the answer is

The ribbon cost $\$1.472$

Answer: The cost of the ribbon is $1.472.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Bella bought 3.2 meters of ribbon to decorate her pencil case and each meter cost $0.46.

We are to find the cost of the ribbon.

We have

the cost of 1 meter of ribbon = $0.46.

So, the cost of 3.2 meters of the ribbon will be

$\$(3.2\times 0.46)=\$1.472.$

Thus, the total cost of the ribbon is $1.472.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

zero (0)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of being hemophiliac and daughter is zero because females have 50% chance of being carrier.

where as males have 50% chance of being affected with hemophilia.

example for understanding: if after mating a girl have X chromosomes with hemophilia gene than she might have hemophilia but that is in rear case so probability is zero.

hope you understand my answer, thank you.

Find the p-value in a test of the claim that the mean College Algebra final exam score of engineering majors equal to 88, give

Orlov [11]

Answer: 0.9332.

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim : College Algebra final exam score of engineering majors equal to 88.

Given that : The test statistic is z equals to 1.50.

To find the p-value (Probability value), we use standard normal distribution table, and search the p-value corresponds to the z-score.

In a Standard Normal Distribution Table below, the p-value corresponds z equals 1.5 is 0.9332.

Hence, the p-value is 0.9332.

A computer randomly selects a letter from the alphabet.

Nikolay [14]

1) 26 different outcomes are in the sample space.

2) 1 / 26 is the probability that the computer produces the first letter of your first name.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) You have to find out the different outcomes in the sample space :

A "Sample space" is defined as the set of all the possible outcomes of an event.
Here, the given event is randomly selecting a letter from the alphabets.

Therefore, the sample space must contain all the possible alphabets that can be chosen randomly.

The sample space is the set of all the 26 alphabets in English language.

⇒ Sample space = {A,B,C,D...........,Y,Z}

⇒ 26 different outcomes.

2) The probability the computer produces the first letter of your first name :

Here, the required outcome is getting the first letter of your first name.

Probability = No. of required outcomes / total no. of outcomes.

For example, The name Alex Davis has the first letter of the fist name as alphabet 'A'.

∴ Probability = 1 / 26

Similarly, for any first name there is going to be any one alphabet from the 26 alphabets, thus the probability to get the first letter will be always 1 / 26.
