Answer:
The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple proportion problem. It can be solved by pure logic reasoning without any formulas
It a dozen pencils cost $0.97, each pencil cost $0.97/12=0.08083
With $5 she will be able to purchase 5/0.08083=61.85 pencils
We must round to the nearest lower integer
The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5
Answer: False
Step-by-step explanation:
You didn't give the coordinate plane that I was supposed to use while helping you.
At least means that at the lowest or smallest amount, it is that number, which is 4. So, the equation for this would be n≥4
Answer:
65%
Step-by-step explanation:
26/40 = 0.65
0.65 X 100 =65
"measures to the nearest tenth of a pound" tell us to round each of the weights listed to the nearest tenth (since the unit is already pounds, no conversion is needed). What this means is if the second number to the right of the decimal is 5 or greater, then we add 1 to the first number to the right of the decimal (and replace the second number with a zero). With all this said, it's much easier to show you, rather than to try to explain it. :D
4.35 is rounded up to 4.4 because the second number to the right of the decimal is 5.
Packet A = 4.4
Packet B = 4.4
Packet C = 4.5
Packed D = 4.4
The question is asking what the heaviest reading will be, so from the whole list above we pick the highest number which is 4.5 pounds. Notice how the answer is not Packet C, or 4.48 pounds, but 4.5 pounds. It is asking for the reading, not the packet, nor the weight. Hope this helps.
