The morning announcements said that two out of every seven sixth-grade students in the school have an overdue library book. Jasm

ine said, "That would mean 24 of us have overdue books!" Grace argued, "No way. That is way too high." How can you determine who is right?

Answer:

We need to know how many students are in sixth grade and compare the real number with the 84 sixth graders that Jasmine claims to be.

Step-by-step explanation:

We would need to know how many students are in sixth grade to determine who is right. If two students out of seven have an overdue library book and grace claims that 24 of them are overdue by that means, what we would need to do is divide the allegedly 24 students between 2. Now we have 12 pairs of students that have overdue books. For every pair of students in sixth grade that have overdue books, seven students don’t have overdue books, so now we multiply 12 pairs of students with overdue books times 7 students who don’t have overdue books. By Jasmine calculation then, sixth grade have 84 students.  

If sixth grade have indeed 84 students, Jasmine is right. If there are not 84 students in sixth grade, she is wrong. Grace is right if there are fewer students than 84 in sixth grade.

Have a nice day! :D

james tailoring service charges a flat rate of $20 and charges an additional $12 per hour when making a tailored suit. how much
jeka94

Answer:

It will cost Mr. Smith $68 to make his suit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the charge $12 per hour, and it takes 4 hours to make the suit, then we need to multiply 12 by 4.

12 × 4 = 48

Now we need to add the flat rate since that is the initial charge for service.

48 + 20 = 68

This means it will cost Mr. Smith a total of $68 for his suit.

MrRissso [65]
The square of 12 is 144 and the square of 13 is 169. Since 150 is in between those, it is C.

The U.S. -based motorcycle manufacturer says that it expects to build 148,000 motorcycles this year, up from 133,000 last year.
suter [353]
Step by step:

To find the percentage increase you must find the difference between both numbers,
148000 - 133000 = 15000
Then divide 15,000 by the original number
15000 \div 148000 = 0.101
After just multiply 0.101 by 100
0.101 \times 100 = 10.1\%
Hope this helped

Please help I do not understand
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The coefficients are;

1,28,378 and 3,276

Step-by-step explanation:

For the binomial expansion, when we talk of the coefficients, we mean the whole numbers that stands before the alphabets

For example, the coefficient of x in 2x is 2

Back to the question;

(x + y)^28

= 28C0 x^28y^0 + 28C1 X^27y^1 + 28C2 x^26y^2 + 28C3 x^25y^3 + ..........

So the coefficients we are looking for are;

28C0 = 1

28C1 = 28

28C2 = 378

28C3 = 3,276

Kindly note that 28C0 is read as 28 combination zero and so on
