Given:
October: 8 3/8 inches
September : 60% less rain fell than in October.

This means that only 40% rain fell in September based on the amount of rain that fell in October.

8 3/8 ⇒ (8*8)+3/8 = 67/8
40% is 4/10

67/8 * 4/10 = 268/80 = 3 28/80 or 3 7/20 or 3.35

28 ÷ 2 = 14
80 ÷ 2 = 40
14 ÷ 2 =   7
40 ÷ 2 = 20

In September 3 7/20 inches or 3.35 inches of rain fell.

If you would like to know how much rain fell in September, you can calculate this using the following steps:

60% of 8 3/8 in. = 60% * 8 3/8 = 60/100 * 67/8 = 201/40 = 5 1/40 in.

8 3/8 - 5 1/40 = 67/8 - 201/40 = 67/20 = 3 7/20 in.

The correct result would be 3 7/20 in.

Three students want to estimate the mean backpack weight of their schoolmates. To do this, they each randomly chose 8 schoolmates and weighed their backpacks. Then as per the given sample data,

(a) The sample means of the backpacks are: 6.375,6.375,6.625

(b) Range of sample means: 0.25

(c)The true statement is: The closer the range of the sample means is to 0, the less confident they can be in their estimate.

For the first sample, mean= 6.375

For the second sample, mean= 6.375

For the third sample, mean= 6.625

Range of sample means=Maximum Mean- Minimum Mean

                                        = 6.625 - 6.375

                                        = 0.25

The students will estimate the average backpack weight of their classmates using sample means, the true statement is:

The closer the range of the sample means is to 0, the more confident they can be in their estimate.

Ket [755]

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial image of the photo is 2 in by 4 in.  The mat is 4 in by 6 in.

The new image is dilated by a scale of 2.  So we double the dimensions.  The new photo is 4 in by 8 in.  The new mat is 8 in by 12 in.

Find the least number which when divisible by 20, 24, 32 and 38 leaves a remainder 5 in cach case
Olegator [25]

Answer:

18245

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use L.C.M,

L.C.M(20,24,32,38)

2|20,24,32,38

2| 10 ,12 ,16 ,19

2| 5 , 6 , 8 , 19

2| 5 , 3 , 4 , 19

2| 5 , 3 , 2 , 19

L.C.M = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 3 x 19

          = 18240

Now for each case remainder is 5,

So the number is 18240+5

=> 18245

Bella’s shoe is more or less than one yard?
Luba_88 [7]
Her shoe may be about a foot, definitely not 3 feet (a yard.) A yard length shoe does not seem average or the normal size.


Therefore, Bella's shoe is less than one yard.

Hope this helps! :)
