t am I losing in the transaction? Keep in mind that we are transferring millions of dollars.

When rounding earlier, it could be screwing you out of an extra few cents that you might eventually need for tax

Because exchanging is not always exact so rounding further back will add up per dollar

The length of a board is 2 5/8 feet long. If 5/6 of a foot is trimmed off, find the new length
nalin [4]

Answer:

New length is 3 3/20 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total board is 2 5/8 feet long. And since 5/6 of a foot is trimmed off, that means each piece of wood is 5/6 feet.

We can now set up an equation like this ---> 5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8

Now we're going to simplify --->  5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8

                                                      5/6 ⋅ x = 21/8              

                                                      (multiply both sides by 6)

                                                      5x = 63/4

                                                      (divide both sides by 5)

                                                      x = 63/20

                                                      x= 3.15

So, the new length is 3.15 feet long, or 3 3/20 in mixed fraction.

5. Daniel arrives at his campsite out of breath from his swim and jog. His sister tells him that he should have swam to the boat
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First determine the time it will take Daniel to reach the Boat and the jogging time</u>

time = distance / rate

where distance can be calculated using this equation: sin 53° = 400 / x

hence x ( distance ) = 500 ft

rate = 150

therefore Time ( t )  to reach boat = 500 / 150 = 3.33 minutes

Time for jogging ( as calculated ) = 3.69 minutes

therefore total time taken by Daniel = 3.33 + 3.69 = 7.02 minutes

<u>Finally determine if Daniel's sister is correct that he should have swam to the boat ramp and then jogged </u>

lets assume Distance to swim  =  x  ( according his sister )

determine the value of x = \sqrt{400^2 + 1400^2 }   therefore X = 1456.02 feet

∴

Total time to be taken if Daniel follows his sister's instruction  = 1456.02 / 150 = 9.71 minutes

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

259 Students go on a field trip. There are 19 vehicles, some vans and some buses.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

12 vans

7 Buses

Step-by-step explanation:

I tried multiple versions but I finally got it right.

Since the buses can hold 25 students at a time I multiplied it by 7.

7 x 25 = 175

Then you'll need to find the remainder.

259-175 = 84

This number would be used to find the students going in the van

84/7= 12

So in total there would be 12 vans

and 7 buses

I hope this helps

Which phrase best describes the scatterplot below?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Strong negative correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

n the scatter plot attached below, as the variable in the x-axis increases, the variable on the y-axis decreases. Thus, if a line of best fit is drawn, it would show a line that slopes downwards to our right. This shows a negative correlation between both variables in the scatter plot.

Also, we also see that the data points represented on the scatter plot are clustered more closely along the slope, showing strong negative correlation.

Therefore, the phrase that best describes the scatter plot is: strong negative correlation.
