(PLEASE HELP) A teacher surveyed a sample of students from Lake Middle School. He asked the students where they'd like to go for

a field trip. He recorded these results:
• 80 chose the aquarium.

• 60 chose the science center.

• 30 chose the planetarium.

• 40 chose the farm.

The teacher wants to figure out the relative frequency of a student choosing the aquarium. He'll then estimate how many students out of all 1000 at the school are likely to choose the aquarium.

(he surveyed 210 students and about 38% of them chose the aquarium)

Write and solve a proportion that the teacher can use to estimate how many students in the whole school would choose the aquarium.

Answer:

relative frequency of choosing aquarium is 80/210

about 400 students out of 2000 will choose aquarium

Step-by-step explanation:

relative frequency of choosing aquarium is 80/210

<u>proportion</u>:

a = students who choose aquarium

80/210 = a/1000

210a = 80000

a = 80000/210 which is close to 80000/200 which equals 800/2 or about 400 students

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to get there.

  2.25×3.5 = 7.875 = 7 7/8

  (2 1/4)(3 1/2) = (9/4)(7/2) = 63/8 = 7 7/8

  (2 1/4)(3.5) = 2(3.5) +(1/4)(3.5) = 7 + (2·3.5)/(2·4) = 7 +7/8 = 7 7/8

A typical graphing calculator will let you enter this problem directly, giving you a result either as a decimal, improper fraction, or a mixed number.

Write each quadratic expression in standard form. Draw a diagram if needed.<br> (x+4)(x-1)
12345 [234]

Answer:

The standard form of the quadratic equation is x² + 3·x - 4 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is a·x² + b·x + c = 0

Given that the expression of the quadratic equation is (x + 4)·(x - 1) = y, we can write the given expression in standard form by expanding, and equating the result to zero as follows;

(x + 4)·(x - 1) = x² - x + 4·x - 4 = x² + 3·x - 4 = 0

The standard form of the quadratic equation is x² + 3·x - 4 = 0

The graph of the equation created with MS Excel is attached
