Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to divide the 6 by 15 in order to get 0.4.

Ratios, fractions, decimals, and percentages are all pretty much each other, as ratios are just fractions but sideways with the colon in between the numbers. Ratios are to show a relationship, as well as the others. Fractions and ratios are decimals, as you can just simplify them into decimals. Percentages are just decimals but with the decimal moved over to the left twice. So 0.43 becomes 43%.

1.49 becomes 149%

0.00432 becomes 0.432%

Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the car is 50 km/h. After six hours,

Eva8 [605]

Let:
x = hours of travel
y = velocity

slope= rise/run slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x1,y1) = (2,50) (x2,y2) = (6,54)
sub values back into the equation m = (54-50)/(6-2) m = 1
POINT SLOPE FORMy-y1 = m(x-x1) y-50= 1(x-2) y = x -2 +50
y = x + 48

B)

the graph within the first seven hours can be obtained at point B

x = 7

y = 7+48 = 55
B(7,55)

Mr. Malloy wants to make sure Amo and Javier get the best possible grade after five tests and can either give a grade based on t

joja [24]

The data has been properly arranged in tabular form and is shown below in the image.

First we need to find the mean and median of scores of both students.

1) For Amo:
Mean = $\frac{97+92+89+55+90}{5}=84.6$
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 90

2) For Javier:
Mean = $\frac{68+97+65+92+95}{5}=83.4$
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 92

For both the students, value of Median is larger then the mean. So in order to give the best possible grade Mr. Malloy should use the median score for both students.
