Huw has a maths test. the second question is:

Mathematics
1 answer:
xeze [42]2 years ago
5 0

Huw's answer of 9 days is incorrect because more guests would finish the food in less time so the number of days for 30 guests is less than 6 days.

The number of days that the food can last 30 guests is 4 days.

<h3>How long will Seaview Hotel's food feed 30 guests?</h3>

More guests would eat the food faster which means that it would be finished in less days than the 6 days used by 20 guests.

To find the days the food would last 30 guests, use the inverse proportion formula:
= (Number of guests x Number of days food lasts for guests) / New number of guests

= (20 x 6) / 30

= 4 days

Full question is:

The only food provided for guests at Seaview Hotel is breakfast. The hotel has enough food to make breakfast for 20 guests for 6 days. How long would the food last 30 guests? You may assume each guest eats the same amount of food for breakfast.

Without working out the correct answer, explain why Huw’s answer of 9 days is incorrect.

Graph the point (-2,3) and 3 more points using a slope of -1/2
Romashka [77]

The required 3 more coordinates are (0, 2), (1, 3/2), and (2, 1).

Given that,
To determine points using a slope of -1/2 and the point (-2,3).

<h3>What is coordinate?</h3>

Coordinate, is represented as the points on the x-axis and y-axis of the graph.

Here,

using the slope-intercept form of the equation,
y = mx + c
we have a point (-2, 3) and m = -1/2
Put point and slope in the equation,
3 = -1/2 * -2 + c
c = 3 - 1
c = 2
Now equation would be
y = -1/2x + 2
Now,
For x = 0
y = 2

Coordinate will be (0,2)

For x = 1
y = -1/2 + 2
y =  3/2
Coordinate will be (1, 3/2)

For x = 2
y = -1/2 * 2 + 2
y = 1
Coordinate will be (2, 1)

Thus, the required 3 more coordinates are (0, 2), (1, 3/2), and (2, 1).

Mean is 6 because once you add up all the numbers it will be 60, and dividing that number by how many you have will give you 6

Median is 5 because once you place the numbers in order, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 13, 15 the middle number in the set is between 3 and 7 and once you find the mean of the two you get 5

A fish store can place 5 fish in each fish bowl. If there are 263 fish to place, how many fish bowls are needed for all 263 fish
skad [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bowl holds 5 fish

x bowls hold 263 fish

1/x = 5/263                      Cross multiply

5x = 263                         Divide by 5

5x/5 = 263/5

x = 52.6

So you actually need 53 fishbowls. One of them holds only 3 fish
