9 because 8 5/6 is closer to 9 than it is to 8

The rule for rounding is that if the fraction is less than 1/2, we round down; and if the fraction is more than 1/2, we round up.

Because 5/6 is a greater fraction than 1/2, we must round the existing whole number (8), up.

8 5/6 rounded to the nearest whole number is 9.

19. Charlotte has a success rate of about 20%

Answer:

$P(x \ge 5) = 0.60$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$S = \{5, 2, 7, 2, 3, 4, 10, 6,4,6,3, 6, 6, 4, 8,5,7,7,1,5\}$

$n(S) = 20$

Required

$P(x \ge 5)$

First, we count the number of trials that are at least 5

$x = \{5, 7, 10, 6,6, 6, 6, 8,5,7,7,5\}$

So, we have:

$n(x \ge 5) = 12$

So, we have:

$P(x \ge 5) = \frac{n(x \ge 5)}{n(S)}$

This gives

$P(x \ge 5) = \frac{12}{20}$

$P(x \ge 5) = 0.60$

<h2><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Radius is 3

Height is 2

So,

Volume = πr²h

Volume = 3.14 × (3)² × 2

Volume = 3.14 × 9 × 2

Volume = 3.14 × 18

Volume = 56.5 units²

A truck driver is driving from Nome, Alaska to Death Valley, California. Because he is traveling between locations with extreme

Andrews [41]

The inequality to represent the temperatures at which the gas in the truck will remain in liquid form is -40 < x < 140

<h3>Part A: The inequality</h3>

Let the temperature of the gas be represented with x.

When the temperature hits −40° F (or below), the gas freezes.

This means that the gas temperature must always exceed −40° F to remain being a liquid

i.e x > −40

Also, when the temperature hits 140° F (or above), the gas evaporates.

This means that the gas temperature must always be less than 140° F to remain being a liquid

i.e x < 140

So, we have:

x > −40 and x < 140

Rewrite as:

-40 < x and x < 140

Combine both inequalities

-40 < x < 140

Hence, the inequality to represent the temperatures at which the gas in the truck will remain in liquid form is -40 < x < 140

<h3>Part B: The description of the graph</h3>

In (a), we have:

-40 < x < 140

The end points of the inequalities use a less than sign.

Less than signs are represented by open circle.

Hence, the graph would use an open circle, and intervals between -40 and 140 would be shaded

<h3>Part C: Would −49° F gas remained in liquid form?</h3>

We have:

-40 < x < 140

The number -49 is not in the range -40 < x < 140

Hence, the gas would not remain in liquid form (in fact, it would freeze because it is less than -40)

The ratio table shows that 4 pounds of tomatoes cost $14. Complete the

valina [46]

Answer:

1 tomato: $3.50

2 tomatoes: $7

3 tomatoes: $10.50

4 tomatoes: $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, to start of if 4 tomatoes cost $14, that means 2 tomatoes cost $7. This probably means 1 tomato cost $3.50 and 3 tomatoes cost $10.50. Hope this helps!
