Answer: 4) 157
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there is no association between the grade level and the andedness, then we should find that the ratio between left handeds and right handed is the same for both grades.
In 7-th grade we have:
Left handed : 11
Right handed: 72
The ratio is 11/72 = 0.14
Then, the ratio for the 8-th graders must be about the same:
Left handed: 24
Right handed: X
Ratio: 24/X
Let's start with the bigger option, X = 157.
24/157 = 0.15
Ok, we now see that with the bigger option we obtained almost the same ratio (if we use the smaller values for X, we will get a ratio bigger than 0.15, so 0.15 is the better aproximation that we can find to the 0.14 of the 7-th graders)
Then the correct option is 4) 157

Since we are given the margin of error and it's equal to ±0.1 feet, and we know the surveyed distance, we can calculate the maximum and minimum distance. We must remember that margin of errors usually involves and maximum and minimum margin of a measure, and it means that the real measure will not be greater or less than the values located at the margins.
We know that the surveyed distance is 1200 feet with a margin of error of ±0.1 feet, so, we can calculate the maximum and minimum distances that the reader could assume in the following way:

Answer:
B. No. He should have put the x values in the
denominator and the y values in the numerator.
Step-by-step explanation:
Took the assignment
Volume= Length * width ( aka Base ) * height
Break up the figure into easier figures, a small square and a bigger square.
Small square- 3*2*1 = 6 cm
Large Square- 7*6*1 = 42 cm
42 + 6 = 48 cm. But wait! You have to take one more step, which is minus-ing 6 from 48. Why? Notice that there is a little area where a side of the small square meets the bigger square. That little area is worth 3 cm ( length is 3, height is 1 cm ) times 2 ( 3 cm is one side, another 3 cm is the other side from the other square ) = 6 cm.
Your total answer should be 42. ( or 48, if your teacher doesn't count the area where the squares meet/join together ).
3/2 and 9/10. Look at the denominators. 2 times what number equals 10. That number would be 5. So if you multiply the first fractions denominator by 5 you get 10. Do the same to the top. you get a new fracrion which is 15/10. Add normally. 15/10 + 9/10 = 24/10. In lowest terms it is 2 2/5 (2 wholes and 2 out of 5)
