My name is Ann [436]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 7 students between 120 and 124 so take the median of 122

Multiply the number of students by the median

7 * 122 =854

There are 8 students between 124 and 128 so take the median of 126

Multiply the number of students by the median

8 * 126 =1008

There are 13 students between 128 and 132 so take the median of 130

Multiply the number of students by the median

13 * 130 =1690

There are 9 students between 132 and 136 so take the median of 134

Multiply the number of students by the median

9 * 134=1206

There are 3 students between 136 and 140 so take the median of 138

Multiply the number of students by the median

3 * 138 =414

To find the mean, take the total weight and divide by the number of students

(854+1008+1690+1206+414) = 5172 lbs

7+8+13+9+3 = 40 students

5172/40 =129.3 lbs for the average

This is an estimate because we do not know that the number of students in each category will weight the median on average. We use the mean as an estimate of their weight. The median is the middle number of the category.

Find the sum of the interior angle measures of the green polygon,

Radda [10]

Answer:

The sum of interior angles of given polygon is 900°

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon is a n-sided figure with n sides and the length of all sides is same.

In the diagram, we have a polygon with 7 sides.

The formula given is used to calculate the sum of interior angles of a polygon

$Sum\ of\ interior\ angles = (n-2)*180$

Here n is the number of sides of polygon

In the given polygon

n = 7

So,

$Sum = (7-2)*180 = 5*180 = 900$

Hence,

The sum of interior angles of given polygon is 900°

The bowling lanes charge an hourly fee for bowling and $2 to rent shoes for the day. Gerry rented shoes and bowled for 2 hours a

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

d) f(x) = 5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to identify the variables and how they fit into the equation. in this case we know that the equation is f(x) = mx + b where f(x) is the total cost, m is the hourly cost, x is the number of hours bowled, and b is the price of the shoes.

Now, we need to solve for the hourly cost, so to do this we plug in all the known information to get 12 = m(2) + 2

To solve we need to isolate the variable by first subtracting 2 on both sides to get 10 = m(2) and then dividing both sides by 2 to get 5 = m.

Finally, since we now know that the hourly cost is $5 we can plug this information back into the equation to get f(x) = 5x + 2
