7 out of 10 were carrying a backpack...and 3 out of 10  were not
that means 7/10 of the total students had backpacks and 3/10 of the total students did not

7/10 * 700 = 4900/10 = 490 had backpacks <==
3/10 * 700 = 2100/10 = 210 did not

Answer: There are 490 students who are expected to be carrying a backpack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students who entered the gym = 10

Number of students who carry a back pack = 7

So, part of students who carry a back pack = \dfrac{7}{10}

If the number of students were at the assembly = 700

So, Number of students that are expected to be carrying a backpack is given by

\dfrac{7}{10}\times 700\\\\=7\times 70\\\\=490

Hence, there are 490 students who are expected to be carrying a backpack.

The number of games a baseball team has won in each of the ten seasons is as follows:
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The mean = 14.3. median = 15.5 and the range = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

10, 16, 19, 13, 12, 17, 16, 15, 9, 16

The mean = sum of the 10 numbers / 10 =  143/10 = 14.3.

Find the median by arranging in ascending order:

9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 16, 16, 17, 19

The median is the mean of the 2 middle numbers = (15 + 16)/2

= 15.5.

The range = highest - lowest number = 19 - 9 = 10.
