Answer:
89
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the mean formula, mean = sum of elements / number of elements.
He wants to keep his average at 85 or higher, so plug in 85 as the mean. Let x represent the score he has to get, and solve for x:
mean = sum of elements / number of elements.
85 = (85 + 76 + 94 + 81 + x) / 5
85 = (336 + x) / 5
425 = 336 + x
89 = x
So, he has to get a 89.
Answer:
2.16 Repeating
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.
9. 12 edges
Work: <u>4</u> horizontal edges on top, <u>4</u> horizontal edges on bottom, <u>4</u> vertical edges for sides
10. Ten-thousands place
Work: The 8 is highlighted. The order of places is: <u>ten-thousands</u>, thousands, hundreds, tens, ones
11. 10 4/5
Work: 54 ÷ 5 ——> 50÷5 = <u>10</u> with 4 left over and put into a fraction of <u>4/5</u>
12. 3,000
Work: 2 is in the thousands place so you look to the place behind it and there is an 8. If the number behind is 5 through 9 then you round up. 8 is above 5, therefore, you round the 2 up to a <u>3</u>.
13. 0.45
Work: The pattern is +0.03 so 0.42+0.03=<u>0.45</u>
14. 54 cakes
Work: <u>6 eggs</u> per 1 cake • <u>9 cakes</u> = 6•9=54 eggs used
15. 378 desks in the school
Work: 6 rows • 7 desks per row = 42 desks in 1 classroom. 42 desks • 9 classrooms = 378 desks in the whole school
Answer:
4/7 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Required fabric is > 1/2 but < 5/8
Let required fabric = x
Then ;
Converting the fractions to decimal :
1/2 = 0.5 ; 5/8 = 0.625
0.5 < x < 0.625
3/8 yards = 0.375 ;
4/7 yards = 0.571
3/7 yards = 0.429
2/4 yards = 0.5
0.5 < 0.571 < 0.625
From the options, only 4/7 yards satisfies the condition :
