I believe it should be 22½ or 22 books

You would need to divide 18 and ⅘

18 ÷ ⅘ = 22½

I hope this helps, even though I’m not totally sure :)

The penguins currently living on an island are of two types, Chinstrap penguins and Gentoo penguins. The range of the heights of
velikii [3]

Answer:

The answer is "Option A"

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the range difference to calculate the maximum and minimum value.

The range of the chinstrap penguins are:  

R(c) = Max(c) - Min(c) = 13.2

The range of the Gentoo penguins are:

 R(g) = Max(g) - Min(g) = 15.4

For point A:

Max(c) = x\\\\Max(g) = x + 5.8\\\\R(c) = x - Min(c) = 13.2 \to  x = 13.2 + Min(c)\\\\R(g) = x + 5.8 - Min(g) = 15.4 \to  x = 9.6 + Min(g)

equate both of them

13.2 + Min(c) = 9.6 + Min(g)Min(g) - Min(c) = 3.6

It indicates that Min(c) surpasses Min(g), whereas Max(g) exceeds Max (c).

Therefore, the Max is picked for g for all penguins and the minimum is picked for c.    

Range of all penguins = Max(g) - Min(c) = x + 5.8 - x + 13.2 = 19

Therefore, it will be determined as the option.

For point B:

In estimating the range the median height cannot help.

For point C:

In order to calculate the variety, the connection between both the mean height cannot be sued.

an algebra teacher drove by a farmyard full of chickens and pigs.the teacher happened to notice that there were a totals of 100
LiRa [457]
I'll be honest, this is a pretty interesting question. I've never seen anything like it before!

We can start off by making equations with the given. If there are 100 heads, that means that the total number of chickens and pigs combined is 100. Thus, we can form our first equation:

p + c = 100
('p' represents number of pigs, and 'c' represents number of chickens)

We also know that there are 270 legs total. Since chickens have 2 and pigs have 4, we can make the following equation:
2c + 4p = 270

I suppose the quickest way to solve for this equation is to use the subtraction method. Put the equations on top of each other:

2c + 4p = 270
c + p = 100
___________
Multiply the bottom equation by -2;

2c + 4p = 270
-2c -2p = 100
____________
"Add" these two equations together:

2c + 4p = 270
-2c -2p = -200
___________
2p = 70

Divide both sides by 2:
p = 35

Ah, finally. Now that we know that there are 35 pigs, input this variable into the first equation to find the number of chickens:

c + 35 = 100
Subtract:
c = 65

There are 35 pigs and 65 chickens

Pls help. Will mark for CORRECT ANSWER!!
Travka [436]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -4
(-2,5)....x = -2 and y = 5
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
5 = -4(-2) + b
5 = 8 + b
5 - 8 = b
-3 = b

so ur equation is : y = -4x - 3 <==

Mae Ling earns a weekly salary of $310 plus a 7.5% commission on sales at a gift shop. How much would she make in a work week if
Illusion [34]

Answer:  662.50 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

If she doesn't sell a single thing, she still earns the base weekly salary of $310. This is the smallest amount she can earn per week.

If she does make sales, then she'll earn an additional 0.075x dollars where x is the amount of sales made (the total value of the merchandise). The 0.075 is the decimal form of 7.5%

In total, she makes 0.075x+310 dollars per week. In this case, she sold x = 4700 dollars worth of goods, which means,

0.075x+310 = 0.075*4700+310 = 662.50

She earned 662.50 dollars for that week.
