Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> number of bones in one hand
y ----> number of bones in the body
we know that
To find out what fraction represents the number of bones in one hand compared to the number of bones in the body, divide the number of bones in one hand by the number of bones in the body
we have

Find the ratio x/y
so

Answer:
Mean: 6
Median: 6
Range: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean is found by adding up all the values in the set and dividing by the amount of numbers in the set (in this one there are 8) 2+3+4+5+7+8+9+10=48. 48 divided by 8 = 6.
Median is the number in the middle, when the numbers in the set are ordered from least to greatest. Since there are two middle numbers in this set we add them together and divide by 2. 5+7=12. 12 divided by 2 = 6.
Range is found by taking the largest number and subtracting the smallest number from it. 10-2=8.
I'll help you with #7, and hopefully then you will be able to do #8 on your own. the formula for the volume of a pyramid and cone is the area of the base times the height of the figure divided by three. knowing this, we must first find the area of the base. since it is a square, we need to multiply the length times the width. (6 • 6 = 36) then you multiply that times the height of the figure (36 • 4 = 144) finally, we need to divide that by three (144 divide by three is 48.) so the answer is b. hope this helped :$
<u>Case 1 :</u>
5 positive x-tiles = 5x
1 positive unit tile = 1
5 positive x-tiles and 1 positive unit tile = 5x + 1
<u>Case 2 :</u>
2 negative x-tiles = -2x
6 positive unit tiles = 6
so, 2 negative x-tiles and 6 positive unit tiles = -2x+6
We see that Gracia has represented the 1st case as 5x+(-1), which should be 5 positive x-tiles and 1 negative unit tile.
Hence the statement : 5 positive x-tiles and 1 positive unit tile to represent 5x+(-1) , explains Gracia's error.
