Answer:
6. 19 candles
7. 6 pills
Step-by-step explanation:
6. If a particular candle burns for 2 3/4 hours (=2.75) and you want to use similar candles to burn one at a time over 10 days for 5 hours each day, find the total number of hours: 10 x 5 = 50 hours. Then, divide by the amount of time it takes for one candle to burn: 10÷2.75 = 18.18. Since the answer is a decimal, you will need to round to the next whole number = 19 candles.
7. Given the rules that no more than three pills may be taken in a four-hour period and each pill must be taken 1 1/2 hours (=1.5) apart, you can take the total number of hours (10) and divide by the time between each pill (1.5):
10 ÷ 1.5 = 6.7
Since you won't take part of a pill, the most you can take is 6 and because the intervals are 1.5 hours, 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 = 4.5, you will not have taken more than 3 in any four hour period.
Answer:
1 solution
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation and has one solution
6x - 4 = x + 6 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x - 4 = 6 ( add 4 to both sides )
5x = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 10 ← only 1 solution
Answer:
Part a)
Mean: 13155.6
Mode:None
Median: 12700
Step-by-step explanation:
12700 : 1
15478: 2
12675: 3
11850: 4
13075: 5
Mean :
Mode:
All values are distinct, therefore there is no mode. A mode is value which occurs most frequently.
Median:
Arrange the values in ascending order:
11850 , 12675, 12700, 12075, 15478
The mid value is median: 12700
Part b)
It depends upon the data. In this question the best way to predict how many miles Gina will drive in the next years is by using Median of the data.
The reason is that there is a potential outlier in the data i.e 15478. In case of outlier median tends to give better predictions.
2/20 = 1/10 = 3/30 = 4/40
so 3 equivalent ratios can be 1/10 (or 1:10), 3/30 (or 3:30), 4/40 (or 4:40)
Answer:
The solution of the inequality required for the situation is d ≥ $13.46.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) the minimum deposit is $10.
ii) the balance before the statement is $-3.46
iii) a deposit d is made so that the fee did not have to be made
iv) therefore d + (-3.46) ≥ 10
d - 3.46 ≥ 10
therefore d ≥ 10 + 3.46
therefore d ≥ $13.46
