The heights (in cm) and arm spans (in cm) of 31 students were measured. The association between (height) and (arm span) is shown

in the scatterplot below. The equation of the line of best fit modeling this relationship is given:
y=4.5+0.977x

Mike is 172 cm tall and George is 165 cm tall. Using the model, how many centimeters longer would we expect Mike's arm span to be than George's? Round your answer to the thousandths place.

Answer: Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the association between height and arm span is modeled by the equation

y = 4.5 + 0.977*x

where y is height and x is arm span.

Mike is 172 cm tall, so his arm span is:

172cm = 4.5 + 0.977*x

x = (172 - 4.5)/0.977 = 171.443 cm

and George is 165 cm tall, so his arm span is:

x = (165 - 4.5)/0.977 = 164.278 cm

Then the difference between their arm span is:

171.443cm - 164.278cm = 7.165 cm

So Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

A clown bought 5 bags of round balloons with 24 balloons in each bag. The clown also bought 3 bags of long balloons with 36 ball
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

247 blown up balloon left

Step-by-step explanation:

5 bags of round balloon with 24 balloon in each bag =

                                  = 5 x 24 = 120 round balloons

3 bags of long balloon with 36 balloon in each bag =

                                   = 3 x 36 = 108 long balloons

Part 1 Answer

120 round balloons -  108 long balloon = 12 balloons

therefore the clown bought 12 more round balloon than long balloon

 

Part 2

3 bags of heart-shaped balloons with 14 balloons in each bag =

                                    = 3 x 14= 42 heart-shaped balloons

All the balloons were blown which equals

120 round balloons + 108 long balloons + 42 heart-shaped balloons =

                                      = 270 balloons

23 balloons out of the 270 balloons burst which equals

 270 blown balloon - 23 burst balloon = 247 blown-up balloons left

so,

247 blown-up balloons were left
