Astudent solves a problem correctly 40 times out of 72 tries. based on this data, what is the probability that the student incorrectly solves the next problem? enter your answer in the box as a percent rounded to the nearest whole number.

The probability of the student incorrectly solves the next problem is 44%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be the event of solving a problem correctly.

Then E' is the event that the problem is solved incorrectly.

Now, recall the definition of probability.

probability of an event =

So,

p(E) =

Also,

p(E) + p(E') = 1 and

p(E') = 1 - p(E)

= 1 -

=

=

=

=

= 44% rounded.

Hence, the probability of the student incorrectly solves the next problem is 44%.

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
