Students are voting on the color of T-shirts to wear on their field trip. There are 160 students-65 boys and 95 girls-going or
the field trip. A random sample of students is chosen. Surveying the random sample produced a representative sample of th
population. Which was most likely true of the representative sample?
The representative sample contained all 160 students.
The representative sample contained more boys than girls.
The representative sample contained more girls than boys.
The representative sample contained an equal number of boys and girls.

Answers

Answer 1
The representative sample contained more girls than boys.

The point of a representative sample is to imitate the original population and not duplicate it. It is a more small scale representation of the original study.

With this in mind the first answer choice is wrong because it duplicates the original.
Since the representative sample imitates the original it needs to have the same properties as the original ,in this case there were more girls than boys, the second answer is also wrong.

The third one is correct because it had the same criteria as the original (more boys that girls).

The fourth one is wrong for the same reason as the second answer choice. It doesn’t fit the criteria.

A pet store owner, Brooklyn, needs to determine how much food she needs to feed the animals. Brooklyn knows that she needs to order the same amount of bird food as hamster food. She needs four times as much dog food as bird food and needs half the amount of cat food as dog food. If Brooklyn orders 600 packages of animal food, how much dog food does she buy? Let b represent the number of packages of bird food Brooklyn purchased for the pet store.

Answers

Answer:

She ordered 85.7 packages as dog food

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent bird food, d represent dog food and c represent cat food.

The bird food is 4 times as much dog food. This can be represented as b = 4d

Also, the dog food is half the amount of cat food, it can be represented as d = 1/2c. Therefore, c = 2d

The total feed is 600.

Therefore dog feed + cat feed + bird feed = 600

d + 2d + 4d = 600

7d = 600

d = 600/7 = 85,7

She ordered 85.7 packages as dog food.

Quincy has $6,000 in a savings account that earns 4% interest, compounded annually.

To the nearest cent, how much interest will he earn in 5 years?

Use the formula B = p(1 + r)t, where B is the balance (final amount), p is the principal (starting amount), r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t is the time in years.

Answers

Given Information:

Principle amount = P = $6,000

Interest rate = r = 4% = 0.04

Period in years = t = 5

Required Information:

How much interest will he earn in 5 years = ?

Answer:

Amount of interest = $1,299.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula given in the question,

[tex]B = P(1 + r )^{t}[/tex]

Where B is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the interest rate and t is the number of years

[tex]B = P(1 + r )^{t}\\\\B = 6,000(1 + 0.04)^{5}\\\\B = 7,299.92[/tex]

The amount of interest earned is

[tex]Amount \:of\: interest = B - P \\\\Amount \:of \:interest = 7,299.92 - 6,000\\\\Amount \:of \:interest = 1,299.92[/tex]

Therefore, Quincy has earned $1,299.92 in terms of interest by investing  $6,000 in a savings account at the rate of 4% annual interest for a period of 5 years.

(6x+4y=43)( 2x-3y=23)

Answers

Answer:

(8.5, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

6x + 4y = 43 → (1)

2x - 3y = 23 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x

- 6x + 9y = - 69 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x, that is

13y = - 26 ( divide both sides by 13 )

y = - 2

Substitute y = - 2 in either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

6x + 4(- 2) = 43

6x - 8 = 43 ( add 8 to both sides )

6x = 51 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 8.5

Solution is (8.5, - 2 )

=> Volume V1 = (4/3) x pi x r1^3 = (4/3) x pi x 6^3 =288pi

2nd sphere has r1 = 15

=> Surface area S1 = 4 x pi x r1^2 = 4 x pi x 15^2 = 900pi

=> Volume V1 = (4/3) x pi x r1^3 = (4/3) x pi x 15^3 =4500pi

=> S1/S2 = 144pi/900pi = 0.16

=> V1/V2 = 288pi/4500pi = 0.064

Matthew is training to participate in a half marathon. Each week, Matthew increases the number of miles he runs in the previous week by the same percent. The table below shows the number of miles he runs in weeks 1 and 2.

Week Number of Miles Run
1 12.5
2 15.5

Complete the sentence. Do not round your answer.
Matthew runs ____ miles in week 3.

Answers

Answer:14.58 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Matthew is training to participate in a half marathon.

The distance covered by Matthew on the first day is 12.5 miles.

The distance covered by Matthew on the second day is 13.5 miles.

The distance increased on the second day is, 13.5-12.5=1 mile.

The percentage will be,

=\dfrac{1}{12.5}\times 100\%

=0.08\times 100\%

=8\%

Hence, each day he runs 8% more. So the distance covered by him on day 3 will be,

=13.5+\left(13.5\times \dfrac{8}{100}\right)

=13.5+1.08

=14.58 miles

Answer:

Basic consensus is that that other answer is wrong. The actual answer is 19.22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the common ratio you just do this, last number = 15.5, and first number = 12.5.

15.5/12.5 equals 1.24.

^That's the common ratio.^

using A(n) = a * r ^ n - 1,

you get 12.5 * 1.24 ^ 3 - 1, or just 12.5 * 1.24 ^ 2

and solving that problem, you get 19.22.

Confirm this by doing the same thing earlier, 19.22/15.5 is 1.24. Which is the ratio found earlier. So it checks out.

Nicole runs 6 miles in 55 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in 44 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make a proportion using this setup:

miles/minutes=miles/minutes

We know that Nicole runs 6 miles in 55 minutes. We don't know how many miles she runs in 44 minutes, so we can say she runs x miles in 44 minutes.

6 miles/55 minutes=x miles/44 minutes

6/55=x/44

Now, we have to find x. To do this, we need to get x by itself. x is being divided by 44. To undo this, multiply both sides by 44, since multiplication is the opposite of division.

44*(6/55)=(x/44)*44

The 44s on the right cancel, so we are left with:

44*6/55=x

4.8=x

Nicole can run 4.8 miles in 44 minutes

Magda wants to compare the population density of the two largest countries in the world. She can use this formula. K=P 2.59 M K = population density (people per km2) P = population (millions) M = land area (million square miles) Canada has a population density of 3.57 people per km2 Russia has • a population of 143.96 million • a land area of 6.593 million square miles. Magda thinks that Russia has a greater population density than Canada. Is Magda correct? Show why you think this.

Answers

Answer:

Magda is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Formula:

[tex]K = \frac{P}{2.59M}[/tex]

Population Density of Canada = 3.57 people per km²

Population of Russia = 143.96 million

Land Mass of Russia = 6.593 million square miles

Required

Which country has a greater population density.

First, the population density of Russia needs to be calculated using the given formula;

[tex]K = \frac{P}{2.59M}[/tex]

Here, P = 143.96 million

M = 6.593 million square miles

Substitute these values in the above formula;

[tex]K = \frac{143.96}{2.59 * 6.593}[/tex]

[tex]K = \frac{143.96}{17.07587}[/tex]

[tex]K = 8.43[/tex] people per square miles

Before we can make any comparison, we have to convert the unit of K to people per square kilometre.

From unit of standard conversion;

1 square miles = 2.58999 square kilometre

Hence;

[tex]K = \frac{8.43}{2.58999}[/tex]

[tex]K = 3.25483882177[/tex]

[tex]K = 3.25[/tex] people per km²

Given that the Population Density of Canada = 3.57 people per km²

And We solved for the Population Density of Russia = 3.25 people per km²

By Comparison, the Population Density of Canada is greater than the Population Density of Russia;

A company is expanding its building area from 16,500 square feet to 20,460 square feet. What is the percentage increase of the area of the building space?

Answers

Answer: 24%

Step-by-step explanation:

A company is expanding its building area from 16,500 square feet to 20,460 square feet. To calculate the percentage increase in the area of the building space, we first find the difference. This will be:

20,460 - 16,500 = 3960

We then divide the difference by the former building area and then multiply by 100. This will be:

3960/16500 × 100

= 0.24 × 100

= 24%

The percentage increase of the area of the building space is 24%.

The first term expresses the initial price. The second term is about the discount which has to be negative. The final term is about the sales tax which must be added to have the total price.

Answers

Answer: P = 96 - 30 + 9.48

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of the jacket is $96.

The discount is 31.25% and

The sales tax is 9.875%

To find the price paid, we subtract the discount from the original price and add the sales tax. This will be:

P=96 - (31.25% × 96)+(9.875% × 96)

P = 96 - 0.3125(96) + 0.09875(96)

P = 96 - 30 + 9.48

P = 75.48

Where,

P stands for the final price.

The first term (96) shows the initial price.

The second term (-30) is about the discount which has to be negative.

The final term (+9.48) is about the sales tax which must be added to have the total price.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are "six" blue marbles in the given bag, which is the correct answer would be an option (D).

What is probability?

Probability is defined as the possibility of an event being equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes.

Given that bag contains 15 marbles. The probability of randomly selecting a green marble is One-fifth.

The probability of randomly selecting a green marble and then randomly selecting a blue marble is 1/5 x P(blue), where P(blue) is the probability of selecting a blue marble.

As per the question, the probability of this event is 2/25, so we can set up the equation 1/5 x P(blue) = 2/25.

Solving for P(blue), we find that P(blue) = 2/5.

Since the probability of selecting a blue marble is 2/5, and there are 15 marbles in the bag, the number of blue marbles in the bag must be 15 x (2/5) = 6.

Therefore, the number of blue marbles in the bag must be 6.
