Answer:

He is likely to be accurate.

Step-by-step explanation:

An estimate is a value that is close to the true or actual value. Usually, a sample from a smaller group is projected into a larger population. To crosscheck the trueness of the estimate, we compare the small sample to the large sample thus;

If 40 employees =  8 applicants for vacation

1200 employees = ? applicants for vacation

Cross multiplying the above gives;

<u>1200 * 8</u>

40

= 9600/40

= 240 applicants for vacation.

The figure 240 is close to the owner's estimate of 250.

Can someone help me for this question?​
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

2x + 1y =< 300

x + y =>150 units

y <= 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the numbers of corndogs and shakes that will be sold.

<u>1.</u>  The total cost of making these items is given by the sum of:

(x)(RM2) + (y)(RM1)

A total of RM300 is allocated for the cost of these items, so:

2x + 1y =< 300   [Units are RM)

<u>2.</u> Sales are expected to exceed 150 units, in total.  This means:

x + y =>150 units

<u>3.</u>  Sales for the shakes is less than 2 times that of the corndogs:

y <= 2x

Answer:

-\frac{3}{x} + \frac{7y}{x} = \frac{-3+ 7y}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-\frac{3}{x} , \frac{7y}{x}

Required

Add

The statement can be interpreted as:

-\frac{3}{x} + \frac{7y}{x}

Take LCM

-\frac{3}{x} + \frac{7y}{x} = \frac{-3+ 7y}{x}
