I'm going to show you two ways to do it.
Way #1 is the slogging way.
Way #2 is the clever way.


Way #1:

' One hundred percent ' means ALL of something.
ALL of the students in the school is the same as 100% of them.
If 10% are absent, then 90% are present.
90% means  0.9  .

                               1620 students  =  90% of the school.

                                            1620  =  0.9 x school total

Divide each side by 0.9:     1620/0.9 = total school

                                             1800  =  total school

How many were absent ? 
10% of them. 
10%  means  0.10  .

                         0.10  x  1800  =  180 students absent .
_______________________________________

Way #2:

' One hundred percent ' means ALL of something.
ALL of the students in the school is the same as 100% of them.

==> If 10% are absent, then 90% are present.

==> The number of students present is  9 times  the number who are absent.

                                            1620 = 9 x the number absent

Divide each side by  9 :    1620 / 9  =    the number absent

                                       1620 / 9  =  180 absent .

What is the mean absolute deviation for the set of data below?<br><br> 2, 8, 10, 16
Evgesh-ka [11]

Solution: We are given below data:

2, 8, 10, 16

Now to find the mean deviation, we use the below formula:

MD= \frac{\sum|X-\bar{X}|}{N}

Where:

\sum,  represents the summation

X, represents the observation.

\bar{X}, represents the mean

N represents the number of observation.

\bar{X}= \frac{\sum{X}}{N}= \frac{2+8+10+16}{4}=9

\sum |X-\bar{X}| = |2-9| + |8-9| +|10-9| +|16-9|=7+1+1+7=16

Therefore, the mean deviation is:

MD= \frac{16}{4}

        = 4

Which of the following is equivalent to (Cd) to the fifth power
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The 3rd option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because of an exponent rule that goes:

(xy)^z = x^z(y^z)

The whole thing gets raised to the power. Therefore only the 3rd one works (ps. if you can mark as brainliest that would be amazing, but if not that's fine)

Graph the equation <br><br> y≥-4/3x-7
True [87]

Answer: See picture

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we need to know how to graph the inequality. First, let's establish that we will have a solid line because the inequality is greater than or equal to. If the inequality was only greater than, then it would be a dotted line. For -4/3x-7, you would start at (0,-7) as the y-intercept. Then you would go down by 4 and go to the right by 3 units. Now, we have to do shading. Since we know that y is greater than or equal to, the shading will be on top of the line, where y is greater.
