A box has dimensions of 4.1 inches, 5.9 inches, and 7.2 inches. Estimate the volume of the solid.

1 answer:

7 0

4.1 ≈ 4 inches (tenth place is less than 5, round down)
5.9 ≈ 6 inches (tenth place is more than 5, round up)
7.2 ≈ 7 inches (tenth place is less than 5, round down)

Volume = 4 x 6 x 7

Volume = 168 in³ (Answer C)

20.7 degrees C
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's the easiest way to solve. Grab a calculator, or a piece of paper. (its simple math) SOOOO, The start is 19.4. Then, it rises 3.8. So add that to 19.4. That gives you 23.2, BuT, it falls again, back down 2.5 degrees. so take 23.2, and subtract 2.5 from it. That should give you 20.7 degrees.

The average heights of x number of girls and 15 boys is 123. if the average heights of boys is 125 and that of girls is 120.find

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

$x = 10$ . In other words, there number of girls is $10$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of a number of measurements is equal to the sum of these measurements over the number of measurements.

$\displaystyle \text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum of measurements}}{\text{Number of measurements}}$ .

Rewrite to obtain:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Sum of measurements}= (\text{Number of measurements}) \times (\text{Average}) \end{aligned}$ .

For this question:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Sum of heights of boys} \\ &= (\text{Number of boys}) \times (\text{Average height of boys}) \\ &= 15 \times 125 = 1875\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Sum of heights of girls} \\ &= (\text{Number of girls}) \times (\text{Average height of girls}) \\ &= x \times 120 = 120\, x\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Sum of boys and girls} \\ &= \text{Sum of heights of boys} + \text{Sum of heights of girls}\\ &= 1875 + 120\, x\end{aligned}$ .

On the other hand, there are $(15 + x)$ boys and girls in total. Using the formula for average:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{Average height of boys and girls} \\ &= \frac{\text{Sum of heights of boys and girls}}{\text{Number of boys and girls}} \\ &= \frac{1875 + 120\, x}{15 + x}\end{aligned}$ .

From the question, this average should be equal to $123$ . In other words:

$\displaystyle \frac{1875 + 120\, x}{15 + x} = 123$ .

Solve this equation for $x$ to obtain:

$1875 + 120\, x= 123\, (15 + x)$ .

$(123 - 120)\, x = 1875 - 123 \times 15$ .

$x = 10$ .

In other words, the number of girls here is $10$ .
