A sample of iron ore was found to contain 44% iron by weight. How many pounds of iron are in 450LBS of this ore?

1 answer:

6 0

So to set this problem up lets understand it.
each percent is out of a whole (100%)
so the whole in this problem is 450 pounds
and to make 44% a usable number we move the percent sign two places over.
.44
to find out how many times .44 goes into 450 pounds we will multiply
(.44×450)=198 pounds
we can check our answer by dividing 198÷450
and getting .44 as our answer

If you were given the data set $s $10, $10, $12, $13, $15, which measure of central

Katarina [22]

Answer: Mode

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given data set is: 10, 10, 12, 13, 15

Mean is the average - find the sum of the data set and divide by the number of terms in the set: $\dfrac{10+10+12+13+15}{5} =\dfrac{60}{5}=12$

Mean = 12

Median is the middle term (when the data set is ordered from least to greatest).

Median = 12

Mode is the term that appears the most.

Mode = 10

Since you want to show that the prices are low, you would choose the lowest value. 10 is lower than 12, so the Mode is lower than either the Mean or the Median.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

20 homes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of homes = 800

Average years at which homes are listed = 8 years

To obtain the annual home listing = total number of Homes / average years

Annual home listing = 800 / 8

Annual home listing = 100 homes

If 20% of the homes are listed on the year in question :

20% of 100 homes

0.2 * 100

= 20 homes

20 homes can be listed that year
