The complete question is:

Oscar and Maria each wrote an equation that they felt represented the proportional relationship between distance in kilometers and distance in miles. One entry in the table paired 152 km with 95 miles. If represents the number of kilometers and represents the number of miles, who wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles? Explain why.

  • Oscar wrote the equation = 1.6, and he said that the unit rate 1.6 / 1

represents kilometers per mile.

  • Maria wrote the equation = 0.625 as her equation, and she said that 0.625 represents kilometers per mile.

Answer:

  • <em><u>Oscar wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles.</u></em>

Explanation:

<u>1. Table</u>

km         miles

152          95

             

<u />

<u>2.  Set the proportion with / and solve for k</u>

  • / = 152 km / 95 miles
  • / = 1.6 km / 1 miles
  • = 1.6 , where  1.6 / 1 represents kilometers per mile.

So, Oscar is right.

<u>3. Solve the proportion for </u>

  • / = 152 km / 95 miles
  • / = 95 miles / 152 km
  • = 0.625 , where 0.625 represents miles per kilometer

So, Maria is wrong.

Prove that the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a number is even if it is expressed so n = 2k. It is odd if it is in the form 2k + 1 (k is just an integer)

Let's say we have to odd numbers, 2a + 1, and 2b + 1. We are after the sum of their squares, so we have (2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2. Now let's expand this;

(2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2 = 4a^2 + 4a + 4b + 4b^2 + 4b + 2

= 2(2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1)

Now the sum in the parenthesis, 2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1, is just another integer, which we can pose as k. Remember that 2 times any random integer, either odd or even, is always even. Therefore the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even.

A dentist polls his patients and finds that 83 percent brush their teeth at least twice a day, 47 percent floss daily, and 19 pe
puteri [66]

Answer:

The correct option is B. 23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that patient brushes his teeth at least twice a day is denoted by A

So, P(A) = 0.83

Let the event that patient flosses daily is denoted by B

So, P(B) = 0.47

Now, it is given that 19 percent patients brush at least twice a day and floss daily.

⇒ P(A and B) = 0.19

Now, we need to find conditional probability of occurring event B given A has occurred.

\implies P(B|A) =\frac{P(A\: and\: B)}{P(A)}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = \frac{0.19}{0.83}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = 0.2289\approx 0.23

Hence, Nearest required percentage = 23%

Therefore, The correct option is B. 23%
