uestion 8%0D%0AA)Of the 72 students who have Ms. Darnell for Health/PE, 9 have an A. At this rate, how many of the 16 students in Ms. Jay’s homeroom would you expect to have an A?

Answer 1

To find out how many students in Ms. Jay's homeroom would be expected to have an A, we can use the concept of proportionality.

Given that 72 students have Ms. Darnell for Health/PE and 9 have an A, we can set up the following proportion:

72 students with Ms. Darnell / 9 students with an A = 16 students with Ms. Jay / x students with an A

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

72 * x = 9 * 16

Simplifying this equation gives:

72x = 144

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 72:

x = 144 / 72

x = 2

Therefore, at this rate, we would expect 2 out of the 16 students in Ms. Jay's homeroom to have an A.
