Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

In this collection, we learn that the ratio of bugs you found to bugs your classmate found is 5:4. A ratio is a mathematical expression that indicates the number of times that one value contains another one. Moreover, we also learn that you found 4 more bugs than your classmate. If we are to maintain the same ratio, we need to multiply both numbers by the same factor. The only option that fulfills these characteristics is 20:16. This means that there are 36 bugs in the collection.

The answer is in the question, "<span>You find 5 out of every 9 bugs in the collection". So wouldn't there be 9 bugs in the collection and your classmate would've only found 1 bug?</span>

Answer:

The correct option is;

e. 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for sample size is given by the following formula;

n = \dfrac{z^2 \times \hat p(1 - \hat p)}{\epsilon ^2}

At 95%, z = 1.96

ε = Margin of error = 0.02 = 2%

Finding the sample size, n, given only the margin of error is by the following formula;

Margin of error = 100/√n

Therefore, we have;

2 = 100/√n

√n = 100/2 = 50

n = 50² = 2500

Therefore, the correct option is e. 2500.

There are 36 students in the class 1/6 students are wearing blue shirts and 2/3 are wearing white shirts how many are wearing a
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The answer would be 1/6 kids are wearing shirts that are neither blue or white.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, to make this easier, lets convert 2/3 to a same denominator fraction.

We must ask, how many times does 3 go into six?

We multiply 3 by 2 and get six. We then multiply the numerator of 2 by the same, getting 4.

Our new fraction is 4/6 which is equal to 2/3.

Then we add 4 to 1, making it 5. That is the amount of students wearing blue and white shirts, which means

1/6 of the kids in the class are wearing shirts that are neither white nor blue.

Hope this helps,

A condominium building has 25 condo units. Each unit has 5 windows. Ryder said that there are 125 windows altogether.
crimeas [40]
The answer is B, 30 x 5 The answer is reasonable. Ryder is correct. It reasonable because if 25 x 5 is 125, then 30 x 5 won't be too much to be unreasonable. 30 x 5 is 150, therefore it is only 25 windows higher, so it is reasonable. Hope this helps! :)
