Jordan's scale model would let him have a proportional measurement of the actual drawing

The height of Jordan's model is 48.8 cm

<h3>How to determine height of Jordan's model?</h3>

The scale ratio is represented as:

Ratio = Model : Actual

So, we have:

1 cm : 0.5 m = Model : 24.4 m

Express as fractions

1 cm / 0.5 m = Model / 24.4 m

Multiply both sides by 24.4 m

Model = 24.4 m * 1 cm / 0.5 m

Evaluate the product

Model = 48.8 cm

Hence, the height of Jordan's model is 48.8 cm

A swimming pool is 15 by 30 feet and a consistent 5 feet deep. you are painting the walls and floor of the pool. if a gallon can
lukranit [14]

the bottom of the pool is 15 x 30 = 450 sq feet.

 you the have 2 walls that are 30 x 5 = 150 x 2 = 300 square feet

 then 2 walls that are 15 x 5 = 75 x 2 = 150 square feet

 for a total of 450 +300 +150 = 900 square feet

 1 can covers 250 sq ft

so 900/250 = 3.6

 so you would need 4 cans of paint

Help please on this math problem: The prices of backpacks at a store are 22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, and 26. Find the Mean Absol
Ivanshal [37]
Answer: 7.22
(note: this is a result after rounding. The result before rounding was 7.21875)

========================================================

Explanation:

Given Set of Values = {22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, 26}

Add up the values: 22+16+39+35+19+34+20+26 = 211
Divide that sum by 8 as there are 8 values: 211/8 = 26.375

The mean is 26.375

Now subtract the mean from each data value. Apply the absolute value to ensure the difference is never negative

|22 - 26.375| = 4.375
|16 - 26.375| = 10.375
|39 - 26.375| = 12.625
|35 - 26.375| = 8.625
|19 - 26.375| = 7.375
|34 - 26.375| = 7.625
|20 - 26.375| = 6.375
|26 - 26.375| = 0.375

Add up those results
4.375+10.375+12.625+8.625+7.375+7.625+6.375+0.375 = 57.75
Then divide by 8 
57.75/8 = 7.21875

The mean absolute deviation of the prices is 7.21875
Rounded to two decimal places, it is 7.22
Since we're talking about money, it makes sense to round to the nearest penny.
