Answer:

D. Swordfish treat: 20%

Lizard Lollies : 50%

Puffer pops: 30%.      

Step-by-step explanation:  

We are told that Matrix is handing out treats at a local protest to promote his new detective agency.

Since he replaces the chosen treat each time with the same treat, so number of each treat remains same and it will not affect the probability for next person to choose the treat.  

We know that \text{Probability}=\frac{\text{The number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible out comes}}.

Let us find probability of choosing each type of treat one by one.

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{\text{Number of swordfish treat}}{\text{Total number of treats}}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{4}{4+10+6}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=\frac{4}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing swordfish treat}=0.20

Therefore, the probability of choosing swordfish treat is 0.20 or 20%.

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=\frac{\text{Number of lizard lollis}}{\text{Total number of treats}}    

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=\frac{10}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing lizard Lollies}=0.50

Therefore, the probability of choosing lizard Lollies is 0.50 or 50%.

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pops}=\frac{\text{Number of puffer pops}}{\text{Total number of treats}}

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pops}=\frac{6}{20}

\text{Probability of choosing puffer pop}=0.30  

Therefore, the probability of choosing puffer pops treat is 0.30 or 30%.

Upon looking at our given choices we can see that option D is the correct choice.

Jacqueline earned a commission of $200 for one week at work. her commission rate is 12% of the merchandise she sells. how much m
guajiro [1.7K]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

We have then:

m: original quantity of merchandise sold (in $)

We then have the following idea:

(original amount) (percent) = new amount

The new amount is the amount that Jacqueline earns for 12% of the commission on sales.

We have then:

m (0.12) = 200

Clearing m we have:

m =\frac{200}{0.12}\\m = 1666.7

  Answer:

The equation that solves the problem is:

m (0.12) = 200

The amount she sold is:

m = 1666.7

Which data set is least Likely to resemble a normal distribution?<br> Look at picture
kicyunya [14]

Answer: B) The heights of girls who live on a certain street in the city of Buffalo

Every answer choice starts with "the heights of all 14-year-old girls who", so we can ignore that part. Choice A describes the largest population while choice B describes the smallest population. In other words, choice A is very general and broad, while choice B is very specific and narrow. The more specific you get and the smaller the population is, the less likely its going to be normally distributed.

Mila reads at a rate of 2 paragraphs per minute. After reading for 3 minutes, she had read a total of 6 paragraphs. This situati
stira [4]

Answer:

(3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mila reads at a rate of 2 paragraphs per minute. After reading for 3 minutes, she had read a total of 6 paragraphs.

This situation can be represented with a linear equation written in slope-intercept form,  as

y=2x

where 'x' represents the number of minutes and,

y represents the number of paragraphs.  

Since y intercept is 0 i.e. 0 paras in 0 minutes we have the equation as

y=2x

Since no of minutes or paragraphs cannot take negative values this line is defined only in the I quadrant where both x and y are positive

Out of the points given as follows:

(3,6) (2,3) (-3,6) or (-2,6) ,

we can remove last two since they have negative x which is impossible.

Consider  (3,6) (2,3)

Out of these only I point  (3,6) satisfies  y=2x and second point   (2,3) does not satisfy

y=2x

Hence answer is (3,6)
