Answer:

About 152 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equal proportions to solve for the $5.99 bag.

We know that 24 pieces = .99, so

\frac{25 pieces}{.99 dollars} = \frac{x pieces}{5.99 dollars}

Make sure to keep the pieces on top, and the dollars on bottom (or vice versa). If your units are messed up, it will not work.

Cross-multiply.

25(5.99) = .99x

Simplify.

149.75 = .99x

Divide both sides by .99.

x = 151.26 = about 151 pieces of candy

The initial fee is the base, so that will not change.

Without knowing how many miles you're going you need x to substitute them, so the equation would be (using slope intercept form)

y= 1.68x + 2.15

What’s the correct answer for this?
grigory [225]

Answer:

The answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Reasoning it is correct because for questions like this the bottom numbers for each shape are 10 and 8 they are very close to each other on the number line there fore since the number is two off you subtract 2 and then two again since it is 2 off to get 21 the closest answer is 20

It is a little confusing but since it is two places off you subtract two twice

Which box-and-whisker plot represents the data set?<br><br> 11, 6, 19, 14, 21, 7, 13, 15, 15
Katena32 [7]
The box and whisker plot is attached.

We first order the data from least to greatest:
6, 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 15, 19, 21

The median is the middle value, or 14.
The lower quartile is the median of the lower half (split by the median).  This is between 7 and 11: (7+11)/2 = 18/2 = 9
The upper quartile is the median of the upper half (split by the median).  This is between 15 and 19:  (15+19)/2 = 34/2 = 17
The highest value is 21.
The lowest value is 6.

We draw the middle line of the box at 14, the median.  We draw the left side of the box at the lower quartile, 9.  We draw the right side of the box at the upper quartile, 17.  From the right side of the box, we draw a whisker to the highest value, 21. From the left side of the box, we draw a whisker to the lowest value, 6.
