10 000  samples wiegh  1 pound.

1 sample would  weigh      (1 / 10 000) pound

10 samples would then weigh    1 /  10 000    * 10    =  1/1000  = 0.001 Pound

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

1/1000 of a pound.

Explanation:

We will set up a proportion to solve this.

The first ratio of the proportion comes from our given information.  10,000 samples weigh 1 pound; this gives us the ratio 10,000/1.

The second ratio will be set up in the same fashion; in this case, the number of samples over the number of pounds.  We know we have 10 samples, but an unknown number of pounds; this means we use a variable to represent the number of pounds:

10/x

This makes our proportion

10,000/1 = 10/x

Cross multiplying, we have

10000(x) = 10(1)

10000x = 10

Divide both sides by 10000:

10000x/10000 = 10/10000

x = 10/10000 = 1/1000

It was estimated that 825 people would attend the soccer game, but 817 people actually attended.
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

0.979%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Estimated value = 825 ;

Actual value = 817

Percentage error:

(|Estimated value - Actual value| ÷ actual value) * 100%

(|825 - 817| ÷ 817) * 100%

(8 / 817) * 100%

0.0097919 * 100%

= 0.979%

= 1% (nearest percent)

What are the vertex, axis of symmetry, maximum or minimum value, and range of y = 3x^2 + 6x − 1?
Bess [88]
The vertex is when x=-b/2a, which is also the line of symmetry. 
in this case, b=6, a=3, so x=-6/6=-1
when x=-1. y=3-6-1=-4

another way to do it is to write the equation into vertex form by making a square:
3x²+6x-1
3(x²+2x-1/3)
3(x²+2x+1-1-1/3))
3(x²+2x+1-4/3))
notice the bold part makes a square:
3(x+1)²-4

Either way, 
the vertex is (-1, -4)
the axis of symmetry is x=-1
the coefficient of x² is 3, a positive number, so this parabola opens upward. the function has a minimum value of y=-4
the range is all real number larger than -4

If m∠ATB = 20°, m∠BTD = 72°, and m∠CTD = 38°, what is m∠ATC?
Ber [7]

Answer: m∠ATC = 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we know that:

m∠ATB = 20° and  m∠BTD = 72°

then we must have that the angle between A and D, is equal to the sum of the angles between A and B, and B and D, or:

m∠ATD = m∠ATB + m∠BTD = 20° + 72° = 92°

Now, we also know that m∠CTD = 38°

And the angle:

m∠ATC  will be equal to the angle between A and D, minus the angle between C and D, or:

m∠ATC = m∠ATD - m∠CTD = 92° - 38° = 54°
