Put everything into a calculator to change to decimal form to make things easier:
27/5=5.4
5.36=5.36
5 3/5=5.6
33/6=5.5
So now in order to least to greatest it would be:
5.36, 27/5, 33/6, 5 3/5
A bar graph is when you want to compare the data in the data set (which this data set does)
A line graph is used when the data set creates a straight line (which this data set does not)
A circle graph (also known as a pie chart) is used when the data set measures percentages that will total 100% (which this data set does not)
A stem plot is used when you want to show the frequency of the beginning digit <em>or digits</em> (which this data set does not)
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
the change in cost of 145-135.50 = 9.50 for an increase of students from 25 to 30. The ratio of change of cost to change of students = 9.50/5 = 1.9 and becomes the slope coefficient "m" in the formula y= mx + b. y = the total cost, mx becomes the variable cost and b becomes the fixed cost. To find b, use the data point given where the total cost = $135.50 when the students = 25, or 135.50 = 1.9*25 +b. Solving for b yields $ 88. Note that the other data point is where the total cost is $145 for students = 30. Using the new total cost equation shows that 30*1.9+88= 145
