Using the two-way table, what percentage of the students that do not like camping like traveling out of state? Round to the

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

In Grade 8, 17% of students like running.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do process of elimination.

For the first choice, we have that In Grade 8, 14 students liked swimming. This is wrong because based on the two-way frequency table, we are dealing with decimals, which can written as percentages. Also, you can't have 0.14 of a person.

Therefore, the first choice is incorrect.

Now for the third choice. The statement is that in Grade 9, 31 percent of students liked volleyball. Okay, so we have a percentage this time. That is a good thing, but we have to know what this percentage means. This answer is incorrect because 31 percent goes with the column of running, not volleyball. It would also be a marginal frequency as well. The 31 percent actually means that 31 percent of all students in both grades liked running. In other words, a total of 31 percent of students in both 8th and 9th grade liked running.

Therefore, the third choice is incorrect.

For the last choice. The statement is 22 students like volleyball. Just like the first choice, we are dealing with percentages, not people.

Therefore, the last choice is incorrect.

Now for the second choice. We are given that in Grade 8, 17 percent of students liked running. We have a percentage, so that is good. This choice is correct because if you were to go to Grade 8 and running. Draw some lines down. You do get to 17 percent. This 17 percent means that 17 percent of students did actually like running. It also means that out of all 8th graders, 17 percent enjoyed running.

Therefore, the second choice is correct.

Hope this helps! I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

How to solve equations

stich3 [128]

Here are some things you should know when solving algebraic equations.

If you add an expression to both sides of an equation, the resulting equation will have the same solution set as the original equation. In other words, they will be equivalent. This is true for all operations. As long both sides are treated the same, the equation will stay balanced.

You will also need to know how to combine like terms. But what are like terms to begin with? Like terms are defined as two terms having the same variable(s) (or lack thereof) and are raised to the same power. In mathematics, something raised to the first power stays the same. So, 5x and 10x are like terms because they both have the same variable and are raised to the first power. You don’t see the exponents because it doesn’t change the value of the terms.

To combine like terms, simplify add the coefficients and keep the common variable(s) and exponent.

The distributive property is another important rule you will need to understand.

The distributive property is used mostly for simplifying parentheses in expressions/equations.

For example, how would you get rid of the parentheses here?

6(x + 1)

If there wasn’t an unknown in between the parentheses, you could just add then multiply. That is what the distributive property solves.
The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac
So, now we can simplify our expression.

6(x + 1) = 6x + 6
