(a) Animals by popularity; Dogs, Cats, Others, Horses.
(b) If 250 students were interviewed, 20 students have other pets.
(c) No, it was incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; We arrange the different pets in chronological order, from the highest percent to the lowest percent;
1. Dogs - 67%,
2. Cats - 20%
3. Others - 8%,
4. Horses - 1%.
None is not included in this list.
Step 2; If 250 students were interviewed, 8% of those have other pets. So we need to calculate how much 8% of 250 is.
8% of 250 = × 250 = 0.08 × 250 = 20.
So 20 students had other pets.
Step 3; 20% of the interviewed students had cats. If 75 students had cats, we need to equate 20% to the 75 and find out how many students were actually interviewed.
20% × x = 75, 0.2 × x = 75,
x = = 375.
So if 375 students were interviewed, 75 students would have cats. So the estimate of 250 students being interviewed is incorrect.
<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>
{x | x < -12 or x > -6}
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's solve the first inequality for x.
(-2/3)x > 8
-2x > 8*3
-2x > 24
x < 24/(-2)
x < -12
The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.
Let's do the same for the second inequality.
(-2/3)x < 4
-2x < 4*3
-2x < 12
x > 12/(-2)
x > -6
The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.
Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.
Answer:
$7.7 million
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: $6.8 million profit made by company.
13% increase in profit every year.
Now, finding the company´s profit in the year of 2006.
As we know there is 13% increase in profit.
∴ Profit increase=
Next adding company´s profit with increase in profit to get profit in the year 2006.
∴ ≅ $7.7
The company´s profit in the year 2006 is $7.7 million.
