The relative unfairness of an apportionment that gives a new board member to joshua rather than to salinas will be

<h3>How to calculate the values?</h3>

The relative unfairness of an apportionment that gives a new board member to joshua rather than to salinas will be:

= (1520 - 1232)/1232

= 288/1232

= 0.234

The relative unfairness of an apportionment that gives a new board member to salinas rather than to Joshua will be:

= (1448 - 1333)/1333

= 115/1333

= 0.086

The regional governing board that should receive the new board member is Salinas.

Is pi/pi irrational
dedylja [7]

Answer:

No, \frac{\pi}{\pi} is 1 which can be written as \frac{1}{1}. The definition of rationals is any number that can be written as a ratio of an integer to an integer where the bottom integer is not 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{\pi}{\pi}=1  since 1(\pi)=\pi.

Rational numbers included anything that can be written as a fraction where the top and bottom are integers (bottom integer is not 0).

1 can be written many different ways. It can be written as \frac{1}{1}.

Both the numerator and the denominator of the rewrite of one that I did are integers.

The integers include the following numbers:

{...,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,...}.

The integers are the whole numbers and the opposite of the whole numbers.

The whole numbers are {0,1,2,3,4,...}.

The opposite of the whole whole numbers are {...,-4,-3,-2,-1,0}.

Deane is flying to a destination that is 2745 miles away. The plane's average speed is 450 mph. Write the slope-intercept form o
Dmitriy789 [7]
The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745

where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles

The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.

The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450

A restaurant adds a 20% tip to the bills of parties of 6 or more people. Suppose a server waits on five such tables. The bill
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

$218.70

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to first convert the percentage to the decimal.

20% = 0.2

Now, you need to find 20% of each bill by multiplying each bill by 0.2.

0.2(185.45) + 0.2(205.20) + 0.2(195.05) + 0.2(245.80) + 0.2(262.00)

Because of the distributive property, you can add up the bills and multiply the sum by 0.2.

0.2(185.45 + 205.20 + 195.05 + 245.80 + 262.00)

0.2(1093.50)

218.7

The waiter made $218.70 in tips.

Joann has a jug containing 128 ounces of milk. She drinks 14 ounces of milk each day. Enter the function f(x) that represents th
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

f(x)=128-14x

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we started out with 128 ounces of milk.

Each day, Joann drinks 14 ounces of milk.

Therefore, the amount of milk left over after x days is 14 times x subtracted from 128.

Therefore, our function is:

f(x)=128-14x

And we're done!
