Answer:

15 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Ruby surveyed a sample of

4 + 3 + 1 = 8 people

Out of which, 3 preferred pepperoni pizza.

So that's 3 out of 8 people preferring pepperoni pizza (or 3/8 = 37.5%]

Now, if we make this into 40 people, the prediction of how many would like pepperoni pizza would be same ratio. So:

3/8 * 40 = 15 people

Our prediction would be 15 people

Find the area of the triangle. Figure is not drawn to scale. Show your work. (Image attached)
Zolol [24]

Answer: 13.8cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle can be calculated with the formula:

A_{(triangle)}=\frac{b*h}{2}

The base of the triangle is "b" and the height of the triangle is "h",

In the figure you can observe that the base and the height of the triangle are:

b=6.9cm\\h=4cm

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into A_{(triangle)}=\frac{b*h}{2}.

Therefore, the area of the triangle is:

A_{(triangle)}=\frac{(6.9cm)(4cm)}{2}

A_{(triangle)}=13.8cm^2

A flea weighs 8 decigrams, and an ant weighs 3 milligrams. How much more does a flea weigh than an ant?
dusya [7]
In this question weight of a flea and an ant is given, but their units are different. So comparing and finding out the weight of flea and ant would be difficult. First thing that needs to be done is to bring the units of both the flea and the ant under same unit.
Weight of flea = 8 decigrams
Weight of ant = 3 milligrams.
Now let us convert the weight of the flea from decigrams to milligrams.
We already know that
1 decigram = 100 milligram
Then
8 decigrams = 100 * 8 milligrams
                     = 800 milligrams
Then
The weight by which the flea is greater than the ant = (800 - 3) milligrams
                                                                                   = 797 milligrams.
So the flea weighs 797 milligrams more than the ant.

Translate the equation using a variable.<br> "Nineteen less than one-half of a number is -13."
Illusion [34]

Answer:

1/2a-19=-13

Step-by-step explanation:

One half of a number represents the phrase "1/2a" (in this case the variable/number is 'a'". Then because it says "nineteen less than", that means you subtract 19 from one half of the variable.

Lisa and Bill made 60 magnets for a craft fair. They sold about 55% of the magnets. Lisa says they sold about 30 magnets. Bill s
koban [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of magnets that Lisa and Bill made for the craft fair is 60.

They sold about 55% of the magnets. The number of magnets that they sold would be about

55/100 × 60 = 0.55 × 60 = 33

If Lisa says that they sold about 30 magnets, she is correct because if we round off 33 to the nearest ten, it would be 30 magnets.

If Bill says that they sold about 36 magnets, he is wrong because if we round off 36 to the nearest ten, it would be 40 magnets.
