Hi!

You would get 1 and a half bagel for each person

6/4 = 1 1/2 or 1.5

Solution:

we are given that

6 students share 4 bagels equally.

we have been asked to find that

How many pieces does each person get?

Here we will have to use the concept of division. Because we are dividing bagels among the students.

So To get the number of pieces each will get divide 6 by 4.

Number of Pieces for each boys $=\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2} \\$

A survey of 260 families show that 99 had dog 76 had cat 34 had dog and cat 98 had neither a cat nor a dog nor a parakeet 8 had

Archy [21]

Answer:

Option D. 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as shown in the attached figure 1

The Venn diagram representing the problem is the attached figure 2

D ⇒ Dog , C⇒ Cat and P ⇒ parakeet

Let the The families had parakeet only = X

A survey of 260 families show that:

99 had dog

76 had cat

34 had dog and cat

98 had neither a cat nor a dog nor a parakeet

8 had a cat a dog and a parakeet

So,

The families had a dog and a cat only = 34 - 8 = 26

The families had a dog only = 99 - (26 + 8 ) = 65

The families had a cat only = 76 - (26 + 8) = 42

∴ X = 260 - ( 98 + 8 + 26 + 65 + 42 ) = 260 - 239 = 21

So, The families had a parakeet only = 21

The answer is option D

Show how are 5 hundreds and 4 tens the same as 4 hundreds and 14 tens.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

100+100+100+100+100+10+10+10+10 = 540

100 = 10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10+10

400 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 10 _ 10

An ecologist wishes to find the height of a redwood tree that is on the other side of a creek, as shown in the figure below. Fro

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The height h of the tree is 62.0 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

step 1

Find the length side AC

In the right triangle ABC

$tan(85.8^o)=\frac{AC}{AB}$ ----> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)

substitute the given value

$tan(85.8^o)=\frac{AC}{24.8}$

$AC=tan(85.8^o)(24.8)$

$AC=337.7\ ft$

step 2

Find the length side CD (height of the tree)

In the right triangle ACD

$tan(10.4^o)=\frac{CD}{AC}$ ----> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)

substitute the given value

$tan(10.4^o)=\frac{CD}{337.7}$

$CD=tan(10.4^o)(337.7)$

$CD=62.0\ ft$

In a study investigating the effect of car speed on accident severity, 5000 reports of fatal automobile accidents were examined,

Oliga [24]

Answer:

a. The proportion of vehicle speeds were between 25 and 57 mph is 68.26%

b.The proportion of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph is 15.87%.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To calculate what proportion of vehicle speeds were between 25 and 57 mph we would have to make the following calculations:

Probability that the vehicle speeds were between 25 and 57 mph is given by:

P(25≤x≤57)

=P(25-41 ≤ x-μ ≤ 57-41)

16 σ 16

=P(-1≤z≤1)

=P(z≤1)-P(z≤1)

=0.8413-0.1587

=0.6826

The proportion of vehicle speeds were between 25 and 57 mph is 68.26%

b. To calcuate what proportion of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph, we would have to make the following calculation:

Probability that vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph is given by

P(x>57)

=P(x-μ > 57-41)

σ 16

=P(z>1)

=1-P(z≤1)

=1-0.8413

=0.1587

The proportion of vehicle speeds exceeded 57 mph is 15.87%.
