Answer:

The highest possible average is 348

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

No more than 60 means -----> maximum 60 ( less than or equal to 60)

To find the possible average using proportion

Remember that the average is the number of hits in 1,000 times at bat

If the average is 300 with maximum 60 times at bat

then

The number of hits is 60*300/1,000=18  hits

If the player gets 5 hits in her next 6 times at bat

then

In 66 times at bat the number of hits is 18+5=23 hits

Find out the average

Let

x ----> the average

\frac{66}{23}=\frac{1,000}{x}\\\\x=23*1,000/66\\\\x=348

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is A = πr², where r is the radius. That means in order to solve this we have to find the value of x, which is the diameter of the lake, and then divide it in half to get the radius. To find x we will use similar triangles and proportions. x is the height of the big triangle and 4.5 is the height of the smaller triangle; 15.3 + 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the big triangle and 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle. Setting up our proportion:

\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{15.3+7.4}{7.4} which simplifies a bit to

\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{22.7}{7.4} and cross multiply to solve for x:

7.4x = 102.15 so

x = 13.8  That is the diameter of the lake. Divide it in half to get 6.9, the radius. Applying the area formula for a circle:

A = (3.14)(6.9)² and

A = 3.14(47.61) so

A = 149.5 which rounds to 150, Choice C

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 38 out of 38 votes were for hunger relief. If it were like that, it would be 100%. Same as if it were 22 out of 22 votes. Like, think about if you were taking a test with 20 questions, and you got 20 questions right. You'd get a hundred percent, right? Same thing here, just a different equation.

Hope this helps
