Answer:

The answer is 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The nearest tenth of a number is the first decimal. As can be seen, 8.54 has two decimals, so we must round the first one. If the second decimal was 5 or bigger than 5, then the first decimal would be increased by 1, and 8.54 would be rounded to 8.6. However, the second decimal is smaller than 4, so the first decimal remains the same, and 8.54 is rounded to 8.5.

Hope this help

Have a nice day!!!!

Donna took twice as long to drive 720 miles and Maple took to drive 200 miles. Find the rates and ties of both if Donna's speed

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Donna traveled for 8 hours at 90 mph

Maple traveled for 4 hours at 50 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity at which each person traveled is given by the distance traveled divided by the time spent (t). From the information given, the following expressions can be written

$t_d = 2t_m\\V_d = V_m+40\\V_d = \frac{720}{t_d}\\V_m = \frac{200}{t_m}\\\\V_d = \frac{360}{t_m}\\ \frac{360}{t_m}=\frac{200}{t_m}+40\\t_m = 4\ hours\\t_d=2*4 = 8\ hours\\\\V_d = \frac{720}{8}=90\ mph\\V_m = \frac{200}{4}=50\ mph\\$

Therefore, Donna traveled for 8 hours at 90 mph and Maple traveled for 4 hours at 50 mph.

A sample of 100 cans of peas showed an average weight of 14 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.7 ounces. If the distribution

Roman55 [17]

This is an example of a normal distribution. An average weight is 14 ounces and a standard deviation is 0.7 ounces.
14.7 = 14 + 0.7 = Average + 1 Standard Deviation.
It means that the percent of cans that will weigh over 14.7 ounces is:
100% - ( 50 % + 34 % ) = 100% - 84% = 16%
16% of 100 cans: 16/100 * 100 = 16.
Answer: 16 cans.
