Answer:

30 More Games for Playoffs | Win Percentage of 40% in Playoffs

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the total amount of games by adding first 20 and 40 remaining

This will leave us with 60 games

In order to calculate the playoff, we would have to calculate 62.50% in those 60 games.

62.50% is 5/8, we divide 60 by 8 and get 7.50

We multiply both sides by 7.50 and get 37.50/60

We subtract 8 from 37.50 and get 29.50

We round it to the nearest ones and get 30

In order to win the game they would need to win 30 more games

To calculate the final win percentage, we would add 2 and 3, which would give us 5.

After winning 2 and losing 3,

it would give us 2/5,

which in percentage is 40%

The first quartile of the dataset {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} is _______. (give your answer as a whole number.
notsponge [240]

The first quartile of the dataset {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} is 2.

Given data set: {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Median of the given data set =3.5

The data set can be split into 2 parts as, {1,2,3} and {4,5,6}. The first quartile is calculated by simply finding the median of the first part of the data set.

Thus, the first quartile is 2.

The quarter divides the distribution into four groups and calculates the range of values above and below the mean.

A quartile separates the dataset into four categories by dividing the data into three points: the lowest, median, and upper quartiles.

The interquartile range, a measurement of variation around the median, is calculated using quartiles.

What do you notice about the surface area and volume for each individual shape versus the surface area and volume for the compos
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Suppose that we have two cubes where the side lenghts are L.

The volume of each cube is L^3

The surface of each cube is 6*L^2.

Now, if we add them we have:

Area of both cubes = 2*L^3

Surface of both cubes = 2*6*L^2 = 12*L^2

Now, suppose now that we have a composite shape with the two cubes,

The dimensions of this figure is lenght = L, height = L widht = 2L

Then the volume of the composite shape is L*L*2L = 2L^3

you can see that the volume does not change.

The surface is: 2*(2L*L + 2L*L + L*L) = = 10L^2

So the surface does change: why this happens?

This happens because when we do a composite shape, some surface of both figures is "absorbed" when we put the figures togheter (in this case one face of each cube is being absorved by the composite shape)

So, in conclusion:

Volume is invariant and surface depends on how we do the composite shape.
