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.

4/3^2 or 1.3333 x 1.33333 = 16 / 9 area.

B. Really just pick any numbers you want.

I need help n pls explain ​
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct option is C). When it was purchased, the coin was worth $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is f(t)=6\times2^{t}

Where t is number of years and f(t) is function showing the value of a rare coin.

A figure of f(t) shows that the graph has time t on the x-axis and f(t) on the y-axis.

Also y-intercept at (0,6)

hence, when time t was zero, the value of a rare coin is 6$

f(t)=6\times2^{t}

f(0)=6\times2^{0}

<em>f(0)=6</em>

Thus,

The correct option is C). When it was purchased, the coin was worth $6

If y varies inversely as x, and y = 23 when x<br> 8, find y when x 4.
Virty [35]

Answer:

y = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 23 when x = 8 , then

23 = \frac{k}{8} ( multiply both sides by 8 )

184 = k

y = \frac{184}{x} ← equation of variation

When x = 4 , then

y = \frac{184}{4} = 46
