Answer:

Answer: Around 1000 students would buy a school lunch.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in one class, 14 students bring lunch from home, and 20 buy lunch in the school. This will be our sample.

In total we have 20 + 14 = 34 students, this will be our 100%.

The percentage of students that bring lunch from home can be estimated as the quotient between the number of students that bring lunch from home and the total number of students, times 100%.

p1 = (14/34)*100% = 41.18%

And the percentage of students that buy lunch at school can be computed in the same way:

p2= (20/34)*100% = 58.82%

Then, out of the 1700 students in middle school, we can estimate that around 58.82% of them will buy lunch in the school.

Then the exact number will be:

N = (58.82%/100%)*1700 = 1000

Around 1000 students would buy a school lunch.

working together Alberto and Amanda can paint a fence in 4.12 hours. had she done it alone it would have taken Amanda 10 hours.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

  D)  7.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The rates of doing work, in terms of jobs per hour, will add when the two painters are working together. If A represents Alberto's time to do the job alone, we have ...

  1/4.12 = 1/10 + 1/A

(Jobs per hour is the inverse of hours per job.)

  A = 1/(1/4.12 -1/10) ≈ 7.0068 ≈ 7.01

It takes Alberto 7.01 hours to do the job alone.

HELP PLEASE, Domain and range problem
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Range is number of copies produced and set of values is; 1 ≤ N ≤ 200

Domain; Cost of publishing book in dollars; set of values are; $710 ≤ N ≤ $2700

Step-by-step explanation:

Range is a set of all the possible output values in a function while domain is the set of all possible input values.

Now, the function is given as;

C = 10N + 700

Where;

C is the cost of publishing the book in dollars

N is the number of copies of books produced

Thus, the domain will be a set of N values while Range will be a set of C values.

We are told that the first printing can produce up to 200 copies of the book.

That means a maximum of 200 books and a minimum of 1.

Thus;

Range is; 1 ≤ N ≤ 200

Maximum possible cost of the 200 books is;

C = 10(200) + 700

C = $2700

Minimum cost which will be for 1 book will be;

C = 10(1) + 700

C = $710

Thus,domain is;

$710 ≤ N ≤ $2700
