Alright, lets get started.

The weight of first shipment = 1 ton 115 pounds

As we know, 1 ton = 2000 pounds, so

So, the weight of first shipment = 2000 + 115 = 2115 pounds

The weight of second shipment = 1723 pounds 7 ounces

The weight of third shipment = 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, adding all three weights = 2115 pounds + 1723 pounds 7 ounces + 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, all three weights = 4795 pounds 18 ounces

As we know, 16 ounces = 1 pound, so

all three weights = 4795 pound 1 pound 2 ounces

All three weights = 4796 pounds 2 ounces

4796 could be wriiten as 4000 + 796

As we know, 2000 pound = 1 ton so

All three weight = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces

So, the total weight of three shipments = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces   :   Answer

A university has 14 statistics classes scheduled for its Summer 2013 term. One class has space available for 20 students, eight
skad [1K]

Answer:

Assuming each class is filled to capacity, the average class size is 70.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the weighted average of the number of students.

The weights are the number of classes.

We have that:

One class of 20 students

Eight classes of 60 students.

One class of 80 students.

Four classes of 100 students.

So

M = \frac{1*20 + 8*60 + 1*80 + 4*100}{14} = 70

Assuming each class is filled to capacity, the average class size is 70.

In the 2004 season, Seattle's Lauren Jackson was ranked first in the WNBA for total points and points per game. She scored 634 p
Sonja [21]

Using a system of equations, it is found that she made:

  • 141 free throws.
  • 168 two-point field goals.
  • 53 three-point field goals.

For the system, we have that:

  • x is the number of free throws made.
  • y is the number of two-point field goals made.
  • z is the number of three-point field goals made.

She made 362 shots, hence:

x + y + z = 362

She scored 636 points, hence:

x + 2y + 3z = 636

  • Observation: I used 636 as there would not be a solution(number of field goals cannot be a fraction) if 634 was used.

She made 27 more 2-point field goals than free throws, hence:

y = x + 27

Then:

x + y + z = 362

x + x + 27 + z = 362

2x + z = 335

z = 335 - 2x

x + 2y + 3z = 636

x + 2(x + 27) + 3z = 634

3x + 3z = 582

x + z = 194

z = 194 - x

Equaling both equations for z, finding x:

335 - 2x = 194 - x

x = 141

Then, to find y and z:

y = x + 27 = 141 + 27 = 168

z = 194 - x = 194 - 141 = 53

She made:

  • 141 free throws.
  • 168 two-point field goals.
  • 53 three-point field goals.

Megan has $500 in short-term savings, $5,000 in her retirement savings account, $500 in credit card debt, and student loan debt
laila [671]

Given, the amount Megan has in short term savings = $500.

The amount in retirement savings account = $5000.

The amount in credit card debt = $500.

The amount in student loan debt = $6500.

So total assets of Megan = Sum of short term savings and retirement savings.

Total asset = $500 + $5000 = $(500+5000) = $5500

Total liabilities of Megan = sum of credit card debt and student loan debt.

Total liability = $ 500 + $6500 = $(500+6500) = $7000

Now to find Megan's net worth we have to subtract total liability from total asset.

So Megan's net worth = $5500-$7000 = $(5500-7000) = $(-1500)

So we have got the required answer.

Net worth of Megan = -$1500.
