Answer:

41 cookies in the box are not sugar cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find what percentage of the total cookies <u>aren't</u> sugar cookies. If 18% are, then the amount that aren't is:

100% - 18% = 82%

Since 82% of the cookies aren't sugar cookies, multiply 82% by 50 to find the amount of cookies that aren't sugar cookies:

50 * 82% = 41

Answer:

41

Step-by-step explanation:

first work out how many of the total cookies are 1%. To calculate this, divide the total by 100

50 ÷ 100 = 0.5 (1% of the cookies is 1/2 a cookie)

As 18% of these cookies are sugar cookies, multiply the 1% by 18

0.5 x 18 = 9 (9 of the cookies are sugar cookies)

To work out how many are NOT sugar cookies, subtract the sugar cookies from the total

50 - 9 = 41

∴41 of the cookies were NOT sugar cookies

I hope this helped :-)

Place values for 249.673
irakobra [83]
Hi! 

This question is worded a little funny, but i think in understand what it's asking. Forgive me if i'm wrong. 

Place values in math are pretty self-explanatory. It's just asking you what place each number is in.

For example:

If you were to write the number 12, the 1 would be in the tens place and the 2 would be in the ones place. 

When speaking about decimals, you pretty much just have to add the letters 'th' to the end of the place value, but instead of decreasing as the numbers grow smaller, you increase and the ones place doesn't exist. 

So in this case:

With 249.637, 2 is in the hundreds place. 4 is in the tens place. 9 is in the ones place. 6 is in the tenths place. 7 is in the hundreths place. 3 is in the thousandths place. 

Hope this helps :)

What is the reason for an outlier in a graph?
Anna71 [15]
It is sometimes called an extreme value. When you graph an outlier, it will appear not to fit the pattern of the graph. Some outliers are due to mistakes (for example, writing down 50 instead of 500) while others may indicate that something unusual is happening
