Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of plastic cups = 24

No. of straws =20

We need to find the smallest number of each that could be bought so that you had the same amount of cups and straws.

Prime factrisation of 24 = 2×3×2×2

Prime factorisation of 20 = 2×5×2

LCM = 120

Hence, the smallest number of each type will be 120.

Less than 3 is about 10.75% and greater than 13 is about 6.18%.

To find these percents, you need to find the z-score for each value. Then, use your table to find the correct percent. Be sure to find the side above 13 when you use your chart.

For less than 3:
(3 - 7.45) / 3.6 = -1.24 = The percent below this is 0.1075

For greater than 13:
(13 - 7.45) / 3.6 = 1.54 = The percent above this is 0.0618

Can anybody help me with this question?
Bogdan [553]
For number 16 we need to write the data as a ratio then convert to a unit rate (amount per 1)...

308/14 = x/1

Cross multiply

14x = 308
x = 308/14
x = 22

So the fuel efficiency is
22 miles per 1 gallon or

22/1

For number 17, since the car was driven at 48 mph, we just have to divide distance driven by speed to get how long it took...

288 miles ÷ 48 mph =

6 hours

I need help with this geometry question
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Approximately 7.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

From the graph, we can see that A is (0,0). Let's let this be x₁ and y₁.

B is (-5,6). Let's let this be x₂ and y₂. So, substitute:

d=\sqrt{(-5-0)^2+(6-0)^2}

Simplify:

d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(6)^2}

Square:

d=\sqrt{25+36}

Add:

d=\sqrt{61}

Take the square root. Use a calculator:

d\approx7.8

So, the distance between them is about 7.8 units.

And we're done!
