Mario is setting up a new tent during a camping trip. The tent came with 7 feet of rope. The instructions are to use 34.5 inches

of the rope to tie a tarp on top of the tent. then, the remaining rope should be cut into 8 1/4 - inch sections to tie the tent to stakes in the ground. Mario will use all of the rope as instructed. write and solve n equation to determine the number of 8 1/4 - inch sections of rope Mario can cut from the rope

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The number of sections that Mario can cut from the rope is 6.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Let the number of 8 1/4 - inch sections of rope Mario can cut from the rope be x.

Since the total length of the rope is 7 feet, which is equal to 84 inches(1 foot=12 inches), the instructions are to use 34.5 inches of the rope to tie a tarp on top of the tent. Therefore, the rope for the 8 1/4 inches section is,

Rope left = 84 inches - 34.5 inches

Since the length of a single section is 8 1/4 inches(8.25 inches), therefore the number of sections that can be made from the remaining section is,

The number of sections, n = Rope left/8.25 inches

                                             = (84 -34.5)inches /8.25 inches

                                              = 6

Hence, the number of sections that Mario can cut from the rope is 6.

Answer:

Question 1) 17.4

Question 2) 1.7

Question 3) 2.8

Question 4) 8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean absolute deviation is the average distance between the data points from the set to the mean point of the data set. It shows the variability in data or how much the data points are spread.

method to calculate Mean absolute deviation:

a. calculate mean

b. calculate absolute deviation of each data point

c. add all the deviations

d. divide absolute deviation by number of points

mean absolute deviation = ∑lx_{i}-xl / n

The given problem has four sub-parts

Solution 1:

Mean= (78+99+90+80+55+56+102+88+60+42)/10

            =  750/10

            =  75

Mean absolute deviation= ( I 78-75 I + I 99-75 I+I 90-75 I + I 80-75 I +

                                             I 55-75 I + I 56-75 I + I 102-75 I + I 88- 75 I +

                                             I 60-75 I + I 42-75 I) /10

         =  (174)/10

        =  17.4

Solution 2:

Mean = (10+13+7+12+9+8+12+10+11+13)/10

              =  (105)/10

              = 10.5

Mean absolute deviation = ( I 10-10.5 I + I 13-10.5 I + I 7-10.5 I + I 12-10.5 I +

                                              I 9-10.5 I + I 8-10.5 I + I 12-10.5 I + I 10-10.5 I +

                                               I 11-10.5 I + I 3-10.5 I) /10

       =   17/10

       = 1.7

Solution 3:

Mean= (1+7+10+5+3+3+6+12+9+4)/10

            =  60/10

            =  6

Mean absolute deviation  = ( I 1-6 I + I 7-6 I + I 10-6 I + I 5-6 I + I 3-6 I +

                                               I 3-6 I + I 6-6 I + I 12- 6 I + I 9-6 I + I 4-6 I) /10

         = (28)/10

        =  2.8

Solution 4:

Mean= (30+46+25+45+18+25+15+32+40+24)/10

            =  300/10

            =  30

Mean absolute deviation  = ( I 30-30 I + I 46-30 I + I 25-30 I + I 45-30 I +

                                               I 18-30 I + I 25-30 I + I 15-30 I + I 32-30 I +

                                               I 40-30 I + I 24-30 I) /10

         = (86)/10

        =  8.6

Set up an equation that can be used to solve the problem. Solve the equation and determine the desired value.
Nataly [62]

Answer:  $454.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Tito's weekly salary is always $ 500 per week.

But your weekly commission income depends on the sales you make. Your commissions are 55%.

If we call x the dollar amount of all sales made by Tito in a week, then his income z(x) is given by the following equation:

z (x) = 0.55x + 500

We wish that z (x) = 750.

Then we equate the equation to 750 and solve for the variable x.

0.55x + 500 = 750\\\\0.55x + 500-500 = 750-500\\\\0.55x = 250

\frac{0.55}{0.55}x = \frac{250}{0.55}

x = \$\ 454.55

Total sales made by Tito must be $454.55
