What percent said red, blue, or yellow?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1 a = 70%

b 6.5 times

c  green = 16%

2.  ?????  Very poorly worded question

2. a 54%

b. 46%

c. 70%

d.  27%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Students in a class were asked to tell their favorite color.

a. What percent said red, blue, or yellow? __% said red, blue, or yellow.  

red is .26

blue is .40

yellow is .04

---------------------

               .70   = 70 %

b. How many times more students said red than yellow?

red  .26

yellow is .04

.26/.04 =  6.5 times

c. What percent of students said green? __% said green.

The circle must total 100 %

Red + blue + yellow + purple + green = 100

26+     40 +     4           + 14     +  green = 100

84 + green = 100

Subtract 84 from each side

84-84 + green = 100-84

green = 16

2. Which two methods could be used to find the percent of students who said green?

We can either convert the percents to decimals or the decimals to percents

The total percents must equal 100%

The total decimal must equal 1

a. Find the sum of the percents given in the circle graph.

If they only want the ones written on the graph as percents

(14+40) = 54%

b. Find the sum of the percent forms of the numbers given in the circle graph. Subtract the result from 100%.

100 - 54% = 46%

c. Find the sum of the decimal forms of the numbers given in the circle graph. Subtract that sum from 1. Change the result to a percent.

.26+.04 = .3

1-.3 = .7

70%

d. Find the sum of half of the percents given in the circle graph. Subtract that total from 50%.

1/2 (46%) = 23%

50 -23 = 27%

a. Use the mean value theorem. 16 falls between 12 and 20, so

v'(16)\approx\dfrac{v(20)-v(12)}{20-12}=\dfrac{240-200}8=5

(Don't forget your units - 5 m/min^2)

b. v(t) gives the Johanna's velocity at time t. The magnitude of her velocity, or speed, is |v(t)|. Integrating this would tell us the total distance she has traveled whilst jogging.

The Riemann sum approximates the integral as

\displaystyle\int_0^{40}|v(t)|\,\mathrm dt=12\cdot200+8\cdot240+4\cdot220+16\cdot150=7600

If you're not sure how this is derived: we're given 5 sample points, so we can cut the interval [0, 40] into 4 subintervals. The lengths of each subinterval are 12, 8, 4, and 16 (the distances between each sample point), and the height of the rectangle approximating the area under the plot of |v(t)| is determined by the value of v(t) at each sample point, 200, 240, |-220| = 220, and 150.

c. Bob's velocity is given by B(t), so his acceleration is given by B'(t). We have

B'(t)=3t^2-12t

and at t=5 his acceleration is B'(5)=15 m/min^2.

d. Bob's average velocity over [0, 10] is given by the difference quotient,

\dfrac{B(10)-B(0)}{10-0}=\dfrac{700-300}{10}=40 m/min

The ratio of police detectives and private detectives on the island is 6 to 5. If a total of 550 detectives of both kinds live o
vekshin1

Answer:

  300

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ratio units in 6:5 is 6+5=11, so each of those ratio units must stand for 550/11 = 50 detectives. Then the 6 ratio units of police detectives stand for 6·50 = 300 police detectives.
