Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved)
Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5
Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be:
M=Amount they must raise
C=Cost per magazine
n=Number of magazines
p=profit $5.5 per magazine
C+p=M/n
And rewriting the previous they should make:
n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>
<span>m = 5.5n</span>
Answer:
2.82842712475
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of 8 in radical form is represented as √8 which is also equal to 2√2 and as a fraction, it is equal to 2.828 approximately. Squares root of a number is the number, which multiplying by itself gives the original number
Answer:
1. Median = 10.1
2. A. The median represents the center.
3. D. The mode(s) can't represent the center because it (they) is(are) not a data value.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of a sample = sum of the samples/no of the samples
Samples in increasing order:
9.8
9.8
9.9
10.1
10.4
10.6
11.1
Mode is the sample with highest frequency.
Median is the middle entry of the data.
Mean = (9.8 + 9.8 + 9.9 + 10.1 + 10.4 + 10.6 + 11.1)/7
= 717/7
= 10.243
Median = 10.1
Mode = 9.8 because it has the highest frequency of 2
Answer:
Jiri is 34 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you want to do is subtract 6 from 74, since Pamela is 6 years older than jiri and their ages summarized is 74, this spans the age difference.
Next you want to divide the answer you got earlier (68, from subtracting 6 from 74) and divide it by two since there are two people. The answer is 34, Jiri is 34 years old and Pamela is 40 years old.
Answer:$29.80
