Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved) 

Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5 

Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be: 

M=Amount they must raise 
C=Cost per magazine 
n=Number of magazines 
p=profit $5.5 per magazine 

C+p=M/n 

And rewriting the previous they should make: 

n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>

<span>m = 5.5n</span>

Answer: n=m/p


Step-by-step explanation:

P = M/N is the original equation given to us. Multiply both sides by N and we end up with N*P = M. We multiply both sides by N to undo the division. Multiplication is the opposite of division.


The idea is to isolate N. In other words, get it all by itself on its own side. To do this, we undo the multiplication done to N. So we divide both sides by P.


note: We know that the profit per magazine is P = 5.50, but we don't know how much money they want to raise (i.e., we don't know the value of M). This is why we can't find the actual numeric value for N.

Levart [38]

Answer: A. The number is a sample statistic because it is a numerical description of all of the passengers that survived.

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is simply similar items or events that a researcher or an experimenter is interested and wants to carry out an experiment on.

A statistic is simply referred to as the piece of information gotten from the population while a sample statistic is the piece of statistical information which a researcher will be able to get from the statistic.

In this scenario, the number is a sample statistic because it is a numerical description of all of the passengers that survived.

5. The scale of a map says that 8 cm represents 5 km.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

a. 12.8 cm    b. 3.125

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any scale drawing use a proportion with one unit of values on the top and the other on the bottom. For example 8cm/5km = x/8km. So you would multiply 8 cm and 8 km and then divide by 5 to get 12.8 cm. For the second question plug in 5m in the numerator and solve for its denominator.
