Answer:

7 cakes and 8 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, write two equations: one for the total number and the other for the total sales.

Let c be the number of cakes.

Let p be the number of pies.

So c + p =15, the total sold.

And 5c + 7p = 91 for the total $ sales.

Solve by substitute one equation into another.

c + p = 15 becomes c = 15 - p. Substitute it into 5c + 7p = 91.

5(15-p) + 7p = 91

75 - 5p + 7p = 91

75 + 2p = 91

2p = 16

p=8

To find c, substitute p=8 into c = 15 - p.

c = 15 - 8

c = 7

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The problem is about cases of diabetes in old people through months.

The variable is descrete , because it doesn't admit decimal numbers, it represents people, and people are whole numbers.

The frequency table would be

<h3> Months              People</h3>

January                       24

February                     30

March                          20

April                             18

May                             28

June                             12

The total number of people is 132.

The mean would be the total number of people divided by the six months.

\mu = \frac{132}{6} =22

Therefore, the mean is 22 people per month.

Remember that the median is the value at the center of the data set, which is between March and April, so

\frac{20+18}{2}=19

Therefore, the mean is 19.

The third statistical value is determined by the major frequency. So, the data that repeats the most is February, which means that month encloses the majority of people.

Each sector shown has an equal area.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

I think it is 40% (Not sure)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to find out how much percent is in one square. To find that out you divide 5 by 100 because 100 is basically 1 in this situation. 100/5 is equal to 20% so that means any one part (Shaded or not) is 20%. Then add the shaded squared up and you get 40%.
