All you would do is multiply .9 by 20
.9*20=18

90% of 20 is 18

A pickup truck carrying 10 to the 3rd power identical bricks weighs 6,755 pounds. If the empty truck weighs 6,240 pounds, what i

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The answer is that each brick weights .515 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 to the 3rd power is 10^3 = 1000 bricks.

The weight of the full truck minus the weight of the empty truck is the weight of the bricks:

6755 - 6240 = 515 pounds of bricks

Pounds per brick:

515 / 1000 = .515 pounds per brick.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!

78 : 120 :: ? : 66 please give answer with explanation

yawa3891 [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

Given that:

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Here,

Product of extremes = 78 and 66

Product of means = 120 and ?

so,

(78*66) = (120 * ?)

⇛5148 = 120 * ?

⇛5148 = 120?

⇛120? = 5148

Shift the number 120 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign.

⇛? = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

Method 2:

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Convert each ratio into fraction.

⇛78/120 = ?/66

On applying cross multiplication then

since, (a/b) = (c/d) ⇛cd = ad

Where, a = 78, b = 120, c = ? and d = 66

Now,

⇛(120)? = (78)66

⇛120? = 5148

⇛(?) = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

Answer: Hence the value of (?) for the given problem is 42.9.

Verification:

Check whether the value of (?) is true or false.

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Substitute the value of (?).

⇛78:120 = 42.9:66

Product of extremes should be equal to product of means.

Product of extremes:- 78*66 = 5148

Product of means:- 120*42.9 = 5148

⇛5148 = 5148

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.

Your friend, Susannah, manages a sandwich shop. She collects data on the number of turkey sandwiches sold per day for a week. Ex

ExtremeBDS [4]

Susannah's data are illustration of measure of central tendencies

(a) The mean

To calculate the mean, she needs to divide the total number of turkey sandwiches sold, by the number of days.

The total is:

$\mathbf{Total = 73 +88+85+88+99+134+129}$

$\mathbf{Total = 696}$

The number of days is:

$\mathbf{Day = 7}$

So, the mean is:

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{Total}{Days}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{696}{7}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =99.4}$

Hence, the mean number of turkey sandwiches sold is 99.4

(b) The median

To calculate the median, she needs to arrange the data in ascending or descending order, then select the middle item.

In ascending order, we have: 73, 85, 88, 88, 99, 129, 134

The middle item is 88

So:

$\mathbf{Median = 88}$

Hence, the median number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(c) The mode

This is the data that occurs most.

From the dataset, 88 appears twice (more than others).

So:

$\mathbf{Mode = 88}$

Hence, the mode number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(d) The range

This is the difference between the highest and least data

From the dataset,

The highest is 134, and the least is 73

So:

$\mathbf{Range =134 - 73}$

$\mathbf{Range =61}$

Hence, the range of turkey sandwiches sold is 61

The measure that would be most helpful is the median, because it is not affected by outliers.
