This is how I would solve it, I would act as if there were 36 people in the class.
36÷6=6×5=30
30÷3=10×2=20
20/36=10/18=5/9
You could also try another number such as 24;
24×(5÷6)=20
20×(2/3)=13.3(3 repeating)
13.333/24=5/9
5/9 people have dogs.
Tell me if this helps.

How do I Simplify 4a – 7b + 2ab – a + b (I need step by step cause I'm trying to learn this)
Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok. First of all, we need to follow the order of operations: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. We don't have any parentheses, exponents, or division to resolve, so you can skip those. So now you have: Multiplication, Addition, and Subtraction. We have multiplication in each term, but each term is fully simplified, so we have Addition and Subtraction left.

With that out of the way, let's go ahead and rearrange this equation so it is easier to solve. (<em>Note: we can only rearrange terms that are positive because subtraction is not commutative. But we can turn negative terms into "positive" terms by the method shown below.</em>)

4a - 7b + 2ab - a + b

4a + (-7b) + 2ab + (-a) + b (<em>Now the terms are all positive, so we can rearrange them, but they still have the same value.</em>)

4a + (-a) + 2ab + (-7b) + b

3a + 2ab + 7b

And there we go. Our answer is fully simplified. If you can understand this, you'll be able to simplify without isolating and rearranging the terms each time.

Hopefully this was helpful and not confusing.

Find the distance between points J and Q.
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph it shows that J is located at point 15, and Q is located at point 35

If we move 20 units from point J to point Q, we land at point Q, making it the distance they are from one another.

What is the average rate of change for this exponential function for the interval from x=2 to x=4?
mario62 [17]

The equation to calculate the average rate of change is: y/x

y = f(x2) - f(x1)x = x2 - x1

x1: 1 (The smaller x value. It can be any number)x2: 2 (The larger x value. It also can be any number)f(x1): The value when you plug x1 into the function.f(x2): The value when you plug x2 into the function.

If we know this, the variables for this problem are assuming the function is 10(5.5)^x:

x2: 2x1: 1f(x2): 10(5.5)^(2) = 302.5f(x1): 10(5.5)^(1)= 55

This means:y = 302.5  - 55 = 247.5x = 2 - 1 = 1

Remember: the equation for avg rate of change is y/x

So, our average rate of change for the function on the interval [1,2] is 247.5 (y/x = 247.5/1)

A set of five distinct positive integers has a mean of $1000$ and a median of $100$. What is the largest possible integer that c
mixer [17]

Answer:

e = 4796

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

mean of five distinct positive number = 1000

median of the number = 100

100 is median means two number will be less than 100 and two number will be greater than 100.

let five number be

a , b, c, d, e

'e' should be the largest number

As 100 is median so 'c' = 100.

'a' and 'b' should be as small as possible and d should be the number nearest to 100.

As all the number are distinct so the least number be equal to 1 and 2

now d will be equal to 101 (nearest to 100)

now,

sum of the five number = 5 x 1000 = 5000

a + b + c + d + e = 5000

1 + 2 + 100 + 101 + e = 5000

e = 5000 - 204

e = 4796

hence, the largest number will be equal to e = 4796
