Answer:

24 candies originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.

There are two calculus classes at your school. Both classes have a class average of 75.5. The first class has a standard deviati
Korvikt [17]
To compare the two classes, the Coefficient of Variation (COV) can be used. The formula for COV is this:
C = s / x
where s is the standard deviation and x is the mean
For the first class:
C1 = 10.2 / 75.5
C1 = 0.1351 (13.51%)

For the second class:
C2 = 22.5 / 75.5
C2 = 0.2980 (29.80%)

The COV is a test of homogeneity. Looking at the values, the first class has more students having a grade closer to the average than the second class.

Aleks04 [339]

1500 people subscribed Sunday edition and 250 people subscribed only sunday edition.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, A survey of 2500 subscribers to a certain news paper revealed that 2250 people subscribe to the daily morning edition  

And 1250 subscribe to both the daily and the sunday editions.  

We have to find how many subscribe to the Sunday edition? how many subscribe to the Sunday edition only?

Let x denote the number who subscribe to the Sunday edition.  

Then the addition rule with overlap tells us that  

Those who subscribe daily edition + those who subscribe sunday edition - those who subscribe both daily and sunday edition = total subscribers in survey

2250 + x – 1250 = 2500

1000 + x = 2500  

x = 1500  

so, 1500 subscribe to the Sunday edition and 1500 – 1250 = 250 subscribe to the Sunday edition only.

Hence, 1500 people subscribed Sunday edition and 250 people subscribed only sunday edition.

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line and equivalent fractions to help find the answer.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (c)  -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting a positive number moves you to the left on the number line. Subtracting a negative number moves you in the opposite direction, to the right.

Here, we start at -2 1/2 = -5/2, and we move 1 3/4 = 7/4 to the right from there. Each mark on this number line is 1/4 unit, so we move 7 marks. The results is ...

  -2 1/2 -(-1 3/4) = -5/2 +7/4

  = -10/4 +7/4 = -3/4
