Imagine that you have a very large barrel that contains tens of thousands of M&M's. According to the official M&M websit

e, 20% of the M&M's produced by the Mars Corporation are orange. 5 students each take a random sample of 50 M&M's and record the percentage of orange in each sample.
1. Which sequence is the most plausible for the percent of orange candies obtained in these samples?
O 020%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%
O 15%, 25%, 22%, 20%, 28%
O 5%, 80%, 8%, 65%, 70%

Answer:

(A)20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 20% of the M&M's produced by the Mars Corporation are Orange in color. If 5 students take a random sample of 50 M&M's, the most plausible percentage of orange candies that will be obtained is:

20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%

This is as a result of the fact that in research experiments, a sample is a representation of the whole. Any result which holds for a random sample should hold for the total population and vice versa.

She underestimated by 60 cents. To get this answer all you need to do is multiply 1 dollar times 12 which is $12 and then multiply $.30 by 12 and that gives you $3.60. Then you add the $12 to the $3.60 and that gives you $15.60 which is 60 cents over the estimation.

The point P(6, –1) is translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x – 5, y – 2).
monitta

The <em>resulting</em> point by considering that P(x, y) = (6, - 1) and P'(x, y) = P(x, y) + (- 5, - 2) is equal to the coordinates P'(x, y) = (1, - 3). (Right choice: C)

<h3>How to determined a resulting point by translation</h3>

In this question we need to determine the new location of a point by using a <em>translation</em> formula. Translations are rigid transformations in which a point is translated on a <em>Cartesian</em> plane. We have the following formula:

P'(x, y) = P(x, y) + (- 5, - 2)     (1)

Where:

  • P(x, y) - Original point
  • P'(x, y) - Resulting point

If we know that P(x, y) = (6, - 1), then the resulting point is:

P'(x, y) = (6, - 1) + (- 5, - 2)

P'(x, y) = (1, - 3)

The <em>resulting</em> point by considering that P(x, y) = (6, - 1) and P'(x, y) = P(x, y) + (- 5, - 2) is equal to the coordinates P'(x, y) = (1, - 3). (Right choice: C)

Multiply 9 books by 55% by doing

9 x .55 = 4.95

We can't have 4.95 books, though so it rounds down to 4 because you can't just add another .05.

Given a soda can with a volume of 15 and a diameter of 2, what is the volume of a cone that fits perfectly inside the soda can?
Naddika [18.5K]
Check the picture below.

so, a cone, that fits inside the cylinder, will have the same height "h" and radius "r".  Thus


\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\&#10;V=\pi r^2 h\qquad \boxed{\pi r^2 h}=15&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{volume of a cone}\\\\&#10;V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}\implies V=\cfrac{\boxed{15}}{3}
