Answer:

$7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Weight = 1 1/4

convert to simple fraction= 5/4 pounds

The cost of 5/4 pounds of package = $9

Let us find the cost per pound

cost per pound = 9/5/4

multiply by the multiplicative inverse of the denominator

cost per pound = 9*4/5

cost per pound = 36/5

cost per pound = $7.2 per pound

Hence the cost of 1 pound of the package is $7.2

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Quadrilaterals.

Basically we know that, the sum of opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is always 180°.

so applying this law here, we get as,

2X + (3X-10) = 180°

=> 5X - 10° = 180°

=> 5X = 190°

=> X = 190°/5

=> X = 38°

thus the angle X= 38°.

The distribution of the number of graduate students over the past 13 years in the math department was:1 69 2 445 3 347 4 0269 1.

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

16 and 73

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is missing some data. The distribution of the number of students is represented on the following stem-and-leaf plot:

$\begin{array}{cc}1&69\\2&445\\3&347\\4&0269\\5&\\6&\\7&3\\8&\\9&\end{array}$

The numbers in the first column represent the tens and the numbers on the second column represent the units. The number of students over the past 13 years were:

16, 19, 24, 24, 25, 33, 34, 37, 40, 42, 46, 49, 73.

Therefore, the smallest and largest number of students were 16 and 73.

Nata [24]

Answer:

The money Rachael plan to collect for the shelter is $350.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rachel is collecting donations for the local animal shelter.

So far she has collected $245, which is 70% of what she hopes to collect.

Now, to find the money Rachael plan to collect for the shelter.

Let the total amount Rachael plan to collect be $x$ .

Amount she collected = $245.

Percentage of amount she collected = 70%.

Now, to get the amount Rachael plan to collect we put an equation:

$70\%\ of\ x=\$245.$

⇒ $\frac{70}{100} \times x=245$

⇒ $0.70\times x=245$

⇒ $0.70x=245$

Dividing both sides by 0.70 we get:

⇒ $x=\$350.$

Therefore, the money Rachael plan to collect for the shelter is $350.
