Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors
1/4 of the students preferred red.
This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4
1/8 of the students preferred blue.
This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8
The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes
x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8
3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8
if 15 students prefer green, then
3x/8 = 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3 = 40 students
Answer:
-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope of a line given two points by using
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-2- -1)/( -4 - -8)
= (-2+1)/(-4+8)
= -1/4
Answer:
Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD): 1.6
One way to do this is use the fact that the exterior angles of all polygons add up to 360 degrees
So an exterior angle of a regular octagon = 360 / 8 = 45 degrees.
So each interior angle = 180 - 45 = 135 degrees
so total measure of all angles in octagon = 8 * 135 = 1080 degrees
