Answer:

8,250

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

we know that

For a total of 500 students, 33% chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device

so

The number of students that chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device is equal to

$500(33/100)=165\ students$

step 2

If 25,000 students were surveyed, how many would you expect to chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device?

using proportion

$\frac{500}{165}=\frac{25,000}{x}\\\\x=165(25,000)/500\\\\x= 8,250$

A line segment has (x1, y1) as one endpoint and (xm, ym) as its midpoint. Find the other endpoint (x2, y2) of the line segment i

Levart [38]

Answer: (a) ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) = (3,2)

(b) ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) = (19,-7)

Step-by-step explanation: Midpoint of a segment is halfway between 2 endpoints. It is calculated using the formulas:

$x_{m}=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$

$y_{m}=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$

Isolating $x_{2}$ :

$2x_{m}=x_{1}+x_{2}$

$x_{2}=2x_{m}-x_{1}$

And $y_{2}$ :

$2y_{m}=y_{1}+y_{2}$

$y_{2}=2y_{m}-y_{1}$

(a) Replacing values and calculating $x_{2}$ :

$x_{2}=(2*2)-1$

$x_{2}=3$

Calculating $y_{2}$ :

$y_{2}=[2*(-1)]-(-4)$

$y_{2}=2$

$(x_{2},y_{2})=(3,2)$

(b) $x_{2}=(2*5)-(-9)$

$x_{2}=19$

$y_{2}=(2*6)-19$

$y_{2}$ = -7

$(x_{2},y_{2})=(19,-7)$

So close! But instead of adding the multiplication sign after the number you need to add them before. Good job though! :)

Mrs. Johnson put 22,250 miles

Viefleur [7K]

The change in quantities can be represented as percentage

<em>The percentage decrease in miles driven is 34.83%</em>

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Initial = 22250}$

$\mathbf{Final = 14500}$

The percentage decrease is calculated as:

$\mathbf{\%Decrease = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} \times 100\%}$

Substitute known values

$\mathbf{\%Decrease = \frac{14500- 22250}{22250} \times 100\%}$

$\mathbf{\%Decrease = \frac{-7750}{22250} \times 100\%}$

$\mathbf{\%Decrease = \frac{-775000}{22250} \%}$

$\mathbf{\%Decrease = -34.83 \%}$

The negative sign implies that, the change represents a decrement.

Hence, the percentage decrease in miles driven is 34.83%

he data set gives the number of hours it took each of the 10 students in a cooking class to master a particular technique. {5, 3

sergeinik [125]

The best measure of center tendency for this set of data would be the median. It is the best measurement because the data set has an outlier. The outlier is the 30. So to find the median we first order the data set and then find out if the set is an even or odd set. This set is even so we just chose the middle number. If the set was even, we would add the two center number and divide them by 2.

3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 30

The center tendency = 4
