Answer:

.667

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 possibilities for an odd number. 1,3 and 5

For a number less than four, there are also 3 possibilities, 1,2 and 3 (Since it's not four or less)

Counting the uniquue numbers which are not repeated, you have 1,2,3,5 so the odds are 4/6 of rolling an odd or less than four number.

Since it's asking to round, I assume we need to convert to a decimal.

Decimal: .667

Percentage: 66.667%

Both answers are rounded to the thousandth.

Answer:

Probability is calculated as # of favorable outcomes / # of possible outcomes.

Our favorable outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

There are 6 total outcomes.

5/6 = 0.833

A random sample produced the pie chart below. The chart gives percentages of students that under reported, accurately reported,
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students at the school is 2,500.

In the given pi chart Pink, Yellow and Sky Blue color represent the percentage of students that under reported, accurately reported, and over reported their heights respectively.

From the graph we can conclude that the yellow portion is approximately one fifth of whole circle. It means the number of students that accurately reported their height is one fifth of total number of students.

2500\times \frac{1}{5}=500

Therefore the number of students that accurately reported their height is 500. Option A is correct.

What is the base of a regular hexagon
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
If you already know the length of a side, then you can simply write it down; in this case, the length of a side is 9 cm. If you don't know the length of a side but know the length of the perimeter or apothem (the height of one of the equilateral triangles formed by the hexagon, which is perpendicular to the side), you can still find the length of the side of the hexagon. Here's how you do it:
If you know the perimeter, then just divide it by 6 to get the length of one side. For example, if the length of the perimeter is 54 cm, then divide it by 6 to get 9 cm, the length of the side.
If you only know the apothem, you can find the length of a side by plugging the apothem into the formula a = x√3 and then multiplying the answer by two. This is because the apothem represents the x√3 side of the 30-60-90 triangle that it creates. If the apothem is 10√3, for example, then x is 10 and the length of a side is 10 * 2, or 20.

Rachel has 60 scones. She sells them to Robbie, Cameron, Louis, Tom and Charlie in that order. Each customer buys more scones th
Dafna11 [192]
Answer:

<span>Robbie: 6
Cameron: 9
Louis: 12
Tom: 15
Charlie</span>: 18

Explanation:


1) Assume that Rachel sold all the cones: 60

2) Call x the amount that Robbie bought and d the constant increase on the purchse.

3) That means that the number of cones bought by each one is:

<span>Robbie:            x
Cameron:         x + d
Louis:               x + d + d = x + 2d
Tom:                 x + 2d + d = x + 3d
Charlie</span>             x + 3d + d = x + 4d

The sum of that is: x + (x + d) + (x + 2d) + (x + 3d) + (x + 4d) = 5x + 10d = 60


5x + 10d  = 60 may be simplified by dividing each side by 5 =>  x + 2d = 12.

Equation (1) x + 2d = 12

4) <span>Robbie and Cameron’s combined total number of scones is three sevenths of the total of Louis, Tom and Charlie

=> x + (x + d) = [3/7] [ (x + 2d) + (x + 3d) + (x + 4d) ]

=> 2x + d = [3/7] (3x + 9d)

=> 7(2x + d) = 3 (3x + 9d)

=> 14x + 7d = 9x + 27d

=> 14x - 9x = 27d - 7d

=> 5x = 10d

=> x = 2d

Equation (2) x = 2d

5) Now you just have to solve this simple system of equations:

x + 2d = 12

x = 2d

Subitituing x for 2d in the first equation: x + x = 12 => 2x = 12 => x = 6

Now replace x = 6 in any  of the two equations and you get the value of d.

For example, from x = 2d => d = x  / 2 = 6 /2 = 3.

6) Finally, calcualte the number of cones of each:

</span>                                                                           Result
<span><span>Robbie:            x                                                6
Cameron:         x + d                                          6 + 3 = 9
Louis:               x + d + d = x + 2d                      9 + 3 = 12
Tom:                 x + 2d + d = x + 3d                   12 + 3 = 15
Charlie</span>             x + 3d + d = x + 4d</span>                    15 + 3 = 18
                                                                -----------------------------------------
Total                                                                   6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 18 = 60
