Answer:

5 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Staples sell for $.60 a box

Each box costs = 0.60 dollars

We need to find out how many boxes can be bought for $3.45

To find out the number of boxes , divide the cost by the cost of each box

\frac{3.45}{0.6} =5.75

Approximately 5 boxes can be bought

Let f(x) = 1/x . Find the number b such that the average rate of change of f on the interval [2, b] is − 1/8
vekshin1

Answer:

b=4

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have the function f(x)=1/x. We need to find b such that the average rate of change or the slope is -1/8 between the intervel [2, b]. First, let's find f(2).

f(2) = 1/(2) = 1/2

So, we have the point (2, 1/2)

At point b, f(b) = 1/b.

Let's plug this into the slope formula:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{.5-\frac{1}{b} }{2-b}  =-1/8

Now, we just need to solve for b. First, let's multiply both the numerator and denominator by b (to get rid of the annoying fraction in the numerator).

\frac{.5b-1}{2b-b^2} =\frac{-1}{8}

Now, cross multiply.

4b-8=b^2-2b

b^2-6b+8=0

Solve for b. Factor using the numbers -4 and -2.

=(b-4)(b-2)=0

Thus, b=4 or b=2.

However, b=2 is not a possible solution since the interval [2,2] means nothing. Thus, b=4.

Answer:

3:1

54:18

Step-by-step explanation:

You can divide both sides by 9 to get one ratio:

27/9:9/9

3:1

You can also multiply both sides by 2 to get another ratio:

27(2):9(2)

54:18

The infant mortality rate is defined as the number of infant deaths per 1,000 live births. This rate is often used as an indicato
Basile [38]

(a)

Q1, the first quartile, 25th percentile, is greater than or equal to 1/4 of the points.  It's in the first bar so we can estimate Q1=5.   In reality the bar includes values from 0 to 9 or 10  (not clear which) and has around 37% of the points so we might estimate Q1 a bit higher as it's 2/3 of the points, say Q1=7.

The median is bigger than half the points.  First bar is 37%, next is 22%, so its about halfway in the second bar, median=15

Third bar is 11%, so 70% so far.  Four bar is 5%, so we're at the right end of the fourth bar for Q3, the third quartile, 75th percentile, say Q3=40

b

When the data is heavily skewed left like it is here, the median tends to be lower than the mean.  The 5% of the data from 80 to 120 averages around 100 so adds 5 to the mean, and 8% of the data from the 60 to 80 adds another 5.6, 15% of the data from 40 to 60 adds about 7.5, plus the rest, so the mean is gonna be way bigger than the median of around 15.
