Fran has a box of candy. There are 5 pieces of lemon-flavored candy, 3 pieces of orange-flavored candy, and 4 pieces of grape-flavored candy in the box. Fran will randomly select 1 piece of candy from the box. What is the probability that the piece of candy will NOT be lemon flavored?
A. 7/12
B. 5/12
C. 5/7
D. 2/3

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Here [ a , b ] = [ 15, 35 ]

and f(b) = f(35) = 400 ← from graph

f(a) = f(15) = 200 ← from graph

Then average rate of change is

[tex]\frac{400-200}{35-15}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{200}{20}[/tex] = 10 m/ s → B

Answer:

Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution. Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations. Random mutations are the initial cause of new heritable traits.

Answer:

Darwin's theory of evolution

Charles Darwin developed a theory of evolution to explain the unity and diversity of life, based on the idea of shared common ancestors.

Natural selection

Darwin's theory was based on the mechanism of natural selection, which explains how populations can evolve in such a way that they become better suited to their environments over time.

Light colored mice are more easily seen by predators and are therefore preyed upon more. Dark mice are better adapted to their environment and better able to survive and reproduce.

Light colored mice are more easily seen by predators and are therefore preyed upon more. Dark mice are better adapted to their environment and better able to survive and reproduce.

Natural selection acting on mice population over time.

Individuals have variations within their heritable traits. Some variations make an individual better suited to survive and reproduce in their environment.

If this continues over generations, these favorable adaptations (the heritable features that aid survival and reproduction) will become more and more common in the population.

The population will not only evolve (change in its genetic makeup and inherited traits), but will evolve in such a way that it becomes adapted, or better-suited, to its environment.

Artificial selection

There are other types of selection, in addition to natural selection, that are out there in the world.

Artificial selection, also called "selective breeding”, is where humans select for desirable traits in agricultural products or animals, rather than leaving the species to evolve and change gradually without human interference, like in natural selection.

Dog breeding is a perfect example of how humans select for desirable or fashionable traits. Breeders deliberately mate parents with the hope of producing offspring with specific traits (such as color, size, ear shape, snout length, and so on).

Common mistakes and misconceptions

Evolution is not the same as adaptation or natural selection. Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution. Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment.

Heritable variation comes from random mutations. Random mutations are the initial cause of new heritable traits. For example, a rabbit can't choose to have a different fur color. Rather, a genetic mutation causes a difference in fur color, which may help that rabbit hide better in its environment.

Natural selection acts on existing heritable variation. Natural selection needs some starting material, and that starting material is heritable variation. For natural selection to act on a feature, there must already be variation, and that variation must be able to be passed on to offspring.

Natural selection depends on the environment. Natural selection doesn't favor traits that are somehow inherently superior. Instead, it favors traits that are beneficial in a specific environment. Traits that are helpful in one environment might actually be harmful in another.

Correct Question:

He counts 18 female students, 16 male students, and 6 teachers. There are

720 people in the auditorium. Consider the probability of selecting one person

at random from the auditorium.

Which of these statements are true?

Choose all that apply.

A:  The probability of selecting a teacher is 6%.

B : The probability of selecting a student is 85%.

C : The probability of selecting a male student is 32%.

D : The probability of selecting a female student is 45%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option B  and D are correct because

The total number of people in one cross section = 18 + 16 + 6 = 40.

A = The probability of selecting a teacher is = (6/40)x100 = 15 % not equal to 6 %

B = The probability of selecting a male student is = (34/40)x100 = 85%

C = The probability of selecting a male student is = (16/40)x100 = 40 % not equal to 32 %

D : The probability of selecting a female student is = (18/40)x100= 45%

Answer: 3.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Triangle is dilated by a factor of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] i.e. each side multiplies to 0.25.

Side E'F' becomes 0.25 times the original length

[tex]\Rightarrow E'F'=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 12.5=3.125[/tex]

Answer: 16.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the cost of equity using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta * (Expected return on market - Risk free rate)

= 6% + 1.2 * (14.50 - 6%)

= 6% + 10.2%

= 16.2%

Answer:

$1.25

Answer:

$1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

just divided 10 with 8

Answer:

2.08

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 2 is a whole number.

8/100 would be converted to the hundredths place.

0.000

     /\

This is the hundredths place.

So the decimal is 2.08

Answer:

           The slope-intercept form of the equation:  y = 0.5x + 5

           The slope:    m = 0.5

           The y-intercept:     b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is  y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is y-intecept

4y = 2x + 20           {divide both sides by 4}

y = 0.5x + 5   ⇒   m = 0.5  and  b = 5

Answer:

30 different types of tacos can Rico make.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - The list below shows the different taco shells, fillings, and toppings sold at Rico's Taco Bar.

Taco Shells                 Fillings                           Toppings

Soft                              Chicken                           Cheese

Hard                             Beef                                 Lettuce

                                    Bean                               Sour Cream                      

                                                                           Onions  

                                                                            Salsa

To find - How many different types of tacos can Rico make using one taco shell, one filling, and one topping?

Proof -

Given that,

There are 2 different types of Taco shells, 3 different type of fillings and 5 different types of toppings.

So, by the fundamental principal of counting,

Total types of tacos Rico made = 2 × 3 ×5 = 30

Sum of two interiors =Exterior

Use simple way

Angle beside x

Measure of x

Answer:

x = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Exterior Angle Theorem of a triangle, the external angle is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles of a triangle.  

This is because the interior angles of a triangle sum to 180° and angles on a straight line sum to 180°.

⇒ x = ∠CAB + ∠BCA

⇒ x = 14° + 30°

⇒ x = 44°

Proof

Interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°

⇒ ∠CAB + ∠ABC + ∠BCA = 180°

⇒ 14° + ∠ABC + 30° = 180°

⇒ ∠ABC = 180° - 14° - 30°

⇒ ∠ABC = 136°

Angles on a straight line sum to 180°

⇒ ∠ABC + x = 180°

⇒ 136° + x = 180°

⇒ x = 180° - 136°

⇒ x = 44°
