The probability of an 8th grader winning is : 14/42 which reduces to 1/3
the simulation would be : # 3 <====
because u will have 6 equal sections on ur spinner...with each section representing 7 people
one section representing 9th graders...so their is 7 of them
2 sections representing 8th graders....so their is 7 * 2 = 14 of them
and 3 sections representing 7th graders....7 * 3 = 21 of them
Answer:
x=40
Step-by-step explanation:
8(1/2x + 5) = 200
4x + 40 = 200
4x = 160
x = 40
Answer: 16
Solution:
1) Use letters to identify the variables:
Number of trumpets: t
Number of clarinets: c
2) Translate each statement into algebraic (mathematical) language.
2.1) Sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets
=> t + c = 27
2.2) Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99
Total cost of the trumpets: 149t
Total cost of clarinets: 99c
Total cost = 149t + 99c
2.3) Total sales were $3223
=> 149t + 99c = 3223.
3) State the system of equations:
Equation (1) t + c = 27
Equation (2) 149t + 99c = 3223
4) Solve the system of equations:
4.1) Multiply equation 1 by 149:
=> 149t + 149c = 4023
4.2) Subtract the equation (2) from the equation obtained in 4.1
=> 149c - 99c = 4023 - 3223
=> 50c = 800
=> c = 800 / 50 = 16
5) Verify the solution:
From equation (1) t = 27 - 16 = 11
Total cost = 149*11 + 99*16 = 3223
Now you have a verified answer: they sold 16 clarinets
Answer:
Brandon
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN: Branden and Pete each play running back. Branden carries the ball 
times for 
yards, and Pete has 
carries for 
yards.
TO FIND: Who runs farther per carry.
SOLUTION:
Total yards traveled by Brandon 
No. of times ball carried by Brandon 
Average yards per carry for Brandon 
Total yards traveled by Pete 
No. of times ball carried by Pete 
Average yards per carry for Pete
≅ 
As the number of yards per carry is higher for Brandon , therefore he runs farther per carry.
