Answer:

About 8 children were sick

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of children in Ms. kloot's class is 27.

The percentage of students who were absent due to the flu 26.

Number of children who were sick

=  \frac{26}{100}  \times 27

This simplifies to:

= 7.02

Therefore about 8 children were sick

Which function is graphed on the right?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: y=2^{x-2}+3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation from a graphed function, you can substitute points into each equation to find the original:

A point on the graph is (2, 4). Substituting this into each equation, we get:

4=2^{2+3} -2, which claims that 4 is equal to 30, which is incorrect.

4=2^{2-3} +2, which claims that 4 is equal to 3/2, which is incorrect.

4=2^{2-2}+3, which claims that 4 is equal to 4, which is correct.

We can test the third function further by taking another point on the graph, (3, 5), and substituting it into the function:

5=2^{3-2} +3, which claims that 5 is equal to 5, which is correct.

Write the sentence as an inequality.<br> 5 is no greater than 4 times a number minus 2.5.
garri49 [273]

Answer:

<em>5 ≤ 4x - 2.5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Inequalities</u>

The expression "no greater than" can be better expressed as "less or equal than".

The expression 4 times a number, being x the unknown number can be written: 4x

Thus, the equivalent inequality of the sentence is:

5 ≤ 4x - 2.5

A woman 5 ft tall walks at the rate of 7.5 ft/sec away from a streetlight that is 10 ft above the ground. At what rate is the ti
lesya [120]
Height of the woman = 5 ft
Rate at which the woman is walking = 7.5 ft/sec
Let us assume the length of the shadow = s
Le us assume the <span>distance of the woman's feet from the base of the streetlight = x
</span>Then
s/5 = (s + x)/12
12s = 5s + 5x
7s = 5x
s = (5/7)x
Now let us differentiate with respect to t
ds/dt = (5/7)(dx/dt)
We already know that dx/dt = 7/2 ft/sec
Then
ds/dt = (5/7) * (7/2)
        = (5/2)
        = 2.5 ft/sec
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the rate at which the tip of her shadow is moving is 2.5 ft/sec.
