Answer: Explained in the step-by-step


Step-by-step explanation:

We want to isolate x, and remember, what we do to one side we do to the other:

(x+3) * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

(x+3) * 3  2/5 divided by 3  2/5 = 15  3/10  divided by 3  2/5

x + 3 = 153/10 * 5/17

x + 3 = 765/170

x + 3 = 153/34

x + 3 = 4.5

x + 3 - 3 = 4.5 - 3

x = 1.5

Check:

(1.5+3) * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

4.5 * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

(3  2/5 = 3.4 and 15  3/10 = 15.3)

4.5 * 3.4 = 15.3

15.3 = 15.3

A contractor records all of the bedroom areas, in square feet, of a five-bedroom house as: 100, 100, 120, 120, 180 What is the v
kifflom [539]
The variance is the total of the squared distances of the given data from the mean. 

This can be calculated through the equation,
        
                            σ² = summation of X² / N  - μ²

where σ² is the variance X's are the data, N is the number of terms, and μ is the mean.

   summation of X² = 100² + 100² + 120² + 120² + 180² = 81200
                          N = 5
                                        μ = (100 + 100 + 120 + 120 + 180) / 5
                                         μ = 124

Substituting these values to the equation for variance,
                                 
                              σ² = (81200/5) - 124² = 864

Thus, the variance is equal to 864.

Write a proportion you could use to convert 2.5 gallons to quarts.
marusya05 [52]
We know there are 4 quarts in a gallon, so how many quarts in 2.5 gallons anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;quarts&gallons\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;4&1\\&#10;x&2.5&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{4}{x}=\cfrac{1}{2.5}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2.5}{1}=x
