The correct answer is D, 'Subtract 42 - 12. Then divide the difference by 3'. Lauren has 42 muffins, and she can put 12 of them into a box, leaving her with 30 muffins to fit into bags. If she can fit 3 muffins in each bag, and she wants to know how many bags she needs, then she needs to divide 30 by 3 to get 10. This means that she will need 10 bags of 3 muffins to completely pack 30 muffins. She started with 42, but 12 of those fit into the original box, so we don't have to worry about it.

Hope this helps!

Below are 36 sorted ages of an acting award winner. Find Upper P70 using the method presented in the textbook.
Leona [35]
The upper 70th percentile is the number below which 70% of the data lie.

The 70th percentile position is given by:

P_{70}= \frac{70N}{100} = \frac{70(36)}{100} =25.2

Thus, the 70th percentile position is approximately the 25th data item (after the data has been arranged in acsending order).

Given the following data:
<span>16 24 25 26 27 29 36 39 39 39 40 44 45 47 47 48 50 51 51 53 53 54 57 58
58 60 65 66 67 69 69 71 72 74 74 74

The 25th data in the data set is 58.

Therefore, the upper P70 is 58.

Answer:

g(x)     x^2 - 5

------ = ---------   where x ≠ - 1/4

f(x)         4x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x+1

g(x) = x^2 - 5

g(x)     x^2 - 5

------ = ---------  

f(x)         4x+1

The denominator cannot equal zero

4x+1 ≠ 0

4x≠-1

x≠-1/4

g(x)     x^2 - 5

------ = ---------   where x ≠ - 1/4

f(x)         4x+1

The probability of a couple having either a boy or a girl is ?. however, many families have more boys than girls and vice versa.
Gwar [14]
<span>The probability of having either a boy or a girl is statistically 0.5, and this makes sense at the chromosomal level - there are genetic reasons for it. 

Why the observed ratio in families is different than predicted ratio is simply due to chance. Just like getting a string of heads when you flip a coin, you got 'lucky' - not real luck but just random coincidence. Your next coin toss could be a tail.
