Mama L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Luis’s, because he flipped the inequality sign when he subtracted

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

7.2b + 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1.

Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.

Amelia:

7.2b + 6.5 - 7.2b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 7.2b

6.5 > -2.4b - 8.1

Correct

Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.

7.2b + 6.5 - 4.8b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 4.8b

2.4b + 6.5 > -8.1

Incorrect

Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6

7.2b + 6.5 - 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1 - 6.5

7.2b > 4.8b - 14.6

Correct

Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.

7.2b + 6.5 + 8.1 > 4.8b – 8.1 + 8.1

7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b

Correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Statements:

Which statement correctly compares the spreads of the distributions?

a. the mode of penguin heights at county side zoo is greater than  the mode at city view zoo.

b. the ranges of penguin heights are the same.

c. the range of penguin heights is greater at city view zoo than at  county side zoo.

d. the range of penguin heights is greater at county side zoo than at  city view zoo.

The mode and mean are measurements of central tendency, these indicate the position of a data set but don't show any information concerning the distribution of said data.

The range on the other had is a measurement of variance, it shows the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the data set and indicates its total dispersion.

City view Zoo R= 44-37= 7 cm

County side Zoo: R= 45-38= 7 cm

Both ranges are the same.

I hope this helps!

Some members of the cooking club are making cakes which they will sell at a street fair for $10 apiece. It costs $10 for a booth
Alika [10]

Answer:

The cooking club sales covers the expenditure when 2 piece of cakes are sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Selling price of each piece of cake = $10

Cost for booth at fair = $10

Ingredients for each piece of cake = $5

We need to find the number of pieces of cake sold when the sales cover the expenditures.

Solution:

Let the number of pieces be 'x'

So We can say that the point at which the sales cover the expenditures can be calculated as Selling price of each piece of cake multiplied by number of pieces will be equal to Cost for booth at fair plus Ingredients for each piece of cake multiplied number of piece of cakes.

framing in equation form we get;

10x =10+5x

Now Subtracting both side by '5x' using Subtraction property we get;

10-5x=10+5x-5x\\\\5x=10

Now Dividing both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{10}{5}\\\\x=2

Hence The cooking club sales covers the expenditure when 2 piece of cakes are sold.
