Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The  number of students in the seventh grade who would be expected to prefer math over science are:

                              128

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in seventh grade are: 150 students.

Now he took a sample of 25 students and find that the 85% of the sample prefers math over science.

This means that out of the sample the number of students who prefer maths over science is:

=(85)/(100)* 25\n\n\n=(85)/(4)\n\n\n=21.25\ students

Now, out of the total seventh graders the number of students who prefer math over science is:

     =(21.25* 150)/(25)\n\n\n=127.5

which is approximately equal to 128.

                Hence, the answer is:

                   128 students

Answer 2
Answer: Part 1 : Ben takes a random sample of 25 students in his seventh-grade class and finds that 85% of the sample prefers math over science. There are 150 students in the seventh grade. Based on the sample proportion, about how many students in the seventh grade would be expected to prefer math over science? 

Option 1 : 25

Option 2 : 85

Option 3 :150

Option 4 :128

Solutions - Convert the percent into decimal and multiply. 

85% of 150 = 0.85 * 150 

127.5 which is rounded to 128

Answer:

2y( 3x-1)(3x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

18x^2y-2y

Factor out the greatest common factor 2y

2y( 9x^2 -1)

The term in the parentheses is the difference of squares

a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)

2y( 3x-1)(3x+1)

THE SUM OF TWO NUMBERS IS 54. IF THE SMALLER NUMBER IS 6 LESS THAN THE BIGGER ONE, FIND THE NUMBERS. (STEP BY STEP PLZ)​

Answers

Answer:

24 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is 54. Let's use the variables x and y to represent theses numbers:

x + y = 54

The smaller number is 6 less than the bigger one. Let's say that x is the smaller number and y is the bigger number:

y - 6 = x

Now we know that x is equivalent to y - 6. So, let's replace x with y - 6 in the original equation:

x + y = 54

y - 6 + y = 54

Combine like terms:

2y - 6 = 54

Now we can solve for y:

2y - 6 = 54

Add 6 to both sides of the equation to isolate the 2y:

2y = 60

Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of y:

y = 30

Now that we know the value of y, we can solve for x:

y - 6 = x

30 - 6 = x

24 = x

The value of the two numbers is 24 and 30.

P=10+3m find p when m =20?

Answers

the equation would become p=10+3×20 then you use PEMDAS and then the answer would be p=70
Hi there! P=10+3m where m=20, of we plug the 20 in we get the equation of P=10+3(20). We use PEMDAS. We don't have any Parenthesis, we don't have any Exponents but we do have Multiplication 3(20), 3(20)=60. Now, we Add 60 by 10, 60+10=70. Therefore, the answer is 60.

The area of triangle AED is 20 square meters. Find the area of parallelogram ABCD.20 square meters
52 square meters
15 square meters
104 square meters
diagram below.

Answers

I found the accompanying image of this problem. The triangle is a right triangle.

area of a right triangle = ab/2    where: a and b are the legs
based on the image: a = 5 m
20 square meters = (5m * b) /2
20 sq. m * 2 = 5m * b
40 sq. m / 5m = b
8 m = b 

So the image consists of 2 right triangles with a square in the middle.

Area of a square = a² = (8m)² = 64m²

Total area of the parallelogram = 2 right triangle * 20m² + 1 square *64m²
Total Area = 40m² + 64m²
Total area = 104m² ⇒ 104 square meters.
