Answer:

The number of miles traveled by a dental bus each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dot plot is a graph that is used in statistics to represent data. The dot plot are used for unvariate data. This is the data that has only one variable that us being measured. The type of plot is very useful if there is only one variable and the variable is categorical and can be quantified.

Categorical variables can be organized and split into categories. On the other hand, quantitative variables can be measured and have numerical values. The population, shoe size, number of physician visits, are all examples of quantitative variables.

The dots represents the frequency of one thing taking place at a particular time, for example, the number of miles traveled by the bus each day of the month.

The reason why the trails must be in quadrant 2 or 3 is because the coordinates start with a negative number. Quadrant 2= (-,+) and quadrant 3= (-,-)

Determine the value of x for the following isosceles triangle.

andrew11 [14]

Given :

▪︎This triangle is an isosceles triangle.

▪︎Measure of one of its legs = 6 inches

▪︎Measure of its equivalent leg $= \tt \frac{x}{9}$ inches

▪︎Measure of its base $= \tt \frac{5}{2}$ inches

Which means :

$=\tt 6 = \frac{x}{9}$

$=\tt \frac{6}{1} = \frac{x}{9}$

$=\tt 6 \times 9 = x \times 1$

$\hookrightarrow\color{plum}\tt 54 = x$

Let us check whether or not we have found out the correct value of x by placing 54 in the place of x :

$=\tt 6 = \frac{54}{9}$

$= \tt6 = 6$

Since the Left Hand Side of the equation is equivalent to the Right Hand Side of the equation, we can conclude that we have found out the correct value of x.

▪︎Therefore, the value of x = 54

There are nickels, dimes, quarters in a large piggy bank, for every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes, for every 2 dimes there are 5 q

Alex

There are 80 nickels and 120 dimes and 300 quarters in piggy bank

Solution:

Given that,

For every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes ,

So, ratio of nickel to dime will be 2 : 3

Also for every 2 dimes there are 5 quarters

So, ratio of dime to quarters is 2 : 5

Let us first find the ratio of nickles to dimes to quarters

nickel : dime = 2 : 3

dime : quarters = 2 : 5

$\frac{nickel}{dime} = \frac{2}{3}$

$nickel = \frac{2}{3} dime$

$\frac{dime}{quarter} = \frac{2}{5}$

$quarter = \frac{5}{2}dime$

So,

$nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3}dime : dime : \frac{5}{2}dime\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3} : 1 : \frac{5}{2}\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = 4 : 6 : 15$
