Answer: A. 85.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two sections of a class took the same quiz.

Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students who had a mean score of 90.

We know that  , \text{Mean}=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{No. of observations}}

Then , for section A :

\text{Mean score }=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{\text{No. of students}}

\Rightarrow\ 80=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{15}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Sum of scores in sec A}=80\times15=1200

Similarly in Section B, \text{Sum of scores in sec B}=90\times20=1800

Total scores = Sum of scores in sec A+Sum of scores in sec B

=1200+1800=3000

Total students = Students in sec A +Students in sec B

=15+20=35

Now , the mean score for all of the students on the quiz =\dfrac{\text{Total score}}{\text{Total students}}

=\dfrac{3000}{35}=85.7142857143\approx85.7

Hence, the approximate mean score for all of the students on the quiz = 85.7

Thus , the correct answer is option A. 85.7.

you are selling pandesal to raise money for a school field trip. Pandesal with cheese cost 8.00 pesos and ube pandesal cost 9.00
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Let's define:

C = number of pandesal with cheese that you sell

U = number of pandesal with ube that you sell.

If you sell these numbers of each, the total profit you get is:

C*8.00 pesos + U*9.00 pesos.

And yo want to get at least 180 pesos, then:

C*8.00 pesos + U*9.00 pesos ≥ 180 pesos.

And you also want to sell two of each, then:

C ≥ 2

U ≥2

So the system of inequalities is:

C*8.00 pesos + U*9.00 pesos ≥ 180 pesos.

C ≥ 2

U ≥2

If U is on the x-axis, and C is on the y-axis, then the graph is: (where the region at the right of the vertical line should be shaded)

7. Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

y=-2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you bring the 4x to the other side by subtracting it, you will have 2y=-4x+8

then divide by the 2 to get y=-2x=4

then you substitute the 5 in for y and the -1 in for x. multiply and then subtract

Please help me out ‼️
Westkost [7]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar triangles, corresponding elements are proportional. Then we get,

(2x + 1)/(x-1) = 10/4

4(2x +1)       = 10(x-1)

8x + 4         = 10x - 10

8x               = 10x - 14

2x               = 14

x                 = 7

Special right triangles, find x and y
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 17.32; y = 8.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Use trigonometric functions to find x and y

   a) sin Ф = \frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}

      Ф = 60°

      opposite side = 15

      hypotenuse = ?

     hypotenuse = \frac{opposite side}{sin \alpha }

     hypotenuse = \frac{15}{sin 60}

     hypotenuse = \frac{15}{0.87}

            hypotenuse = 17.32

     b) cosФ = \frac{y}{hypotenuse}

         y = hypotenuse x cos 60

         y = 17.32 x 0.5

                y = 8.67
