Which problem solving strategy would be best to solve this problem?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sauron [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Use a formula

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Jim and Lillian have the dimensions of the wall they want to paint, therefore, in order to know how much paint they need to buy, they should proceed as follows;

1) Determine the quantity of paint required to paint a unit area of the wall, and record the quantity UA

2) Calculate the area, A, of the wall they want to paint, which is 15 ft. × 9 ft. = 135 ft.²

3) The amount of paint needed, AmP is therefore given by the following formula

AmP = A × AU = 135 × AU

Which function BEST expresses the linear relationship displayed by the scatter plot?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We want a line of best fit, which means we want to create a line that the data points will lie closest to.

One thing we can do is find the slope between the bottom-leftmost point and the top-rightmost point. This is because if we were to draw a line connecting these two, it will cut through the data quite well.

Those two points are (9, 15) and (16, 18), so the slope is change in y divided by the change in x:

(18 - 15) ÷ (16 - 9) = 3 ÷ 7 ≈ 0.4

Eliminate A and B.

Now we need to determine the y-intercept. This needs no calculations; simply look at the graph: there's no way a line cutting through the y-intercept point of (0, 18) will perfectly match the data points; instead it must be a y-intercept lower than 18. So, eliminate D.

The answer is C.

A museum requires a minimum number of chaperones proportional to the number of students on a field trip. The museum requires a m
Stells [14]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question:

A museum requires a minimum number of chaperones proportional to the number of students on a field trip. The museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. Which of the following could be combinations of values for the students and the minimum number of chaperones the museum requires? Choose 2 answers.

A. Students: 72

Minimum of chaperones: 9

B. Students: 16

Minimum of chaperones: 2

C. Students: 60

Minimum of chaperones: 6

D. Students: 45

Minimum of chaperones: 5

E. Students: 40

Minimum of chaperones: 8

Since the museum requires a minimum of 3 chaperones for a field trip with 24 students. This means that there will be 24/3 = 8 students per chaperone.

We then divide the number of students given in the question by the number of chaperone to know our answers. This. Will be:

Students: 72

Minimum of chaperones: 9

This will be: 72/9 = 8

Therefore, this is correct.

B. Students: 16

Minimum of chaperones: 2

This will be: 16/2 = 8

This is correct

C. Students: 60

Minimum of chaperones: 6

This will be: = 60/6 = 10.

Therefore, this is wrong

D. Students: 45

Minimum of chaperones: 5

This will be 45/5 = 9

Therefore, this is wrong.

E. Students: 40

Minimum of chaperones: 8

This will be: 40/5 = 8.

Therefore, this is wrong.

Therefore, options A and B are correct.

Sanjaya is making punch. He uses LaTeX: \frac{1}{3}1 3 c of pineapple juice for every LaTeX: \frac{3}{4}3 4 c of orange juice. H
lord [1]

Answer: 1\dfrac13 cups of pineapple juice .

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of direct proportion between x and y:

\dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}

As per given,

Let x = quantity of pineapple juice and y = quantity of orange juice.

x_1=\dfrac13\  , y_1=\dfrac34 ,  y_2=3

Put these values in an equation we get

\dfrac{\dfrac13}{\dfrac34}=\dfrac{x_2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{x_2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=3\times\dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=1\dfrac13

Hence, he needs 1\dfrac13 cups of pineapple juice .
