If 100 pencils can be sold for $90, then how many pencils are needed to earn $8500?

Mathematics

ira [324]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a proportion.

Let x be the number of pencils needed.

\frac{100}{90} = \frac{x}{8500}

Solve for x.

x = 9444.44 pencils (round it up to 9445 pencils if you need a whole number)

The point is plotted on the number line.What whole number best approximates the value of x?
sattari [20]

You can eliminate 81 because we know \sqrt{81} =9

The dot is on approximately 9.32 (my estimate) so I would square that number:

(9.32)² = 86.8624 so if you round this you get 87

Given:  m∠p =47BD∥AC <br> What is the m∠m?<br><br> Put only the number. Do not label your answer.
Anettt [7]

Answer: 43\°

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe the given figure.

You can identify that the measure of the angle "B" is:

m\angle B=90\°

Knowing this, you can conclude that the angle "p" and the angle "m" are Complementary angles, which means that the sum of their measures is 90 degrees. Then, you can write the following equation:

m\angle p+m\angle m=90\°   [Equation 1]

You know that:

m\angle p=47\°

Then you can substitute it into the [Equation 1] and then solve for m\angle m. Therefore, you get:

 47\°+m\angle m=90\°\\\\m\angle m=90\°-47\°\\\\m\angle m=43\°

The lengths of nails produced in a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 4.84 centimeters and a standard deviation of
Helga [31]

Answer:

Top 3%: 4.934 cm

Bottom 3%: 4.746 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 4.84, \sigma = 0.05

Top 3%

Value of Z when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.03 = 0.97. So X when Z = 1.88.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.88 = \frac{X - 4.84}{0.05}

X - 4.84 = 0.05*1.88

X = 4.934

Bottom 3%

Value of Z when Z has a pvalue of 0.03. So X when Z = -1.88.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.88 = \frac{X - 4.84}{0.05}

X - 4.84 = 0.05*(-1.88)

X = 4.746

A. This is the graph of a linear function.
seropon [69]

Answer:

B.  Graph of a one-to-one function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A one-to-one function will have a unique value, y, for each different value of x.  The graph displayed will have values very, very close to each other as x approaches ±4, but they won't be the same even at higher values of x.
