Based on the number of people who chose the other fruits, the percentage of people who chose pears was <u>25%. </u>

<h3>Number of people who chose pears </h3>

= Number of participants - Number who chose apples - Number who chose oranges

= 60 - 28 - 17

= 15 people

<h3>Percentage who chose pears </h3>

= Number of people who chose pears / Total number of people x 100%

= 15 / 60 x 100%

= 25%

In conclusion, 25% chose pears.

What the answer to this question
Sonja [21]

To solve this, you need to isolate/get the variable "u" by itself in the inequality:            u = unknown number

2u - 3 < 1       Add 3 on both sides

2u - 3 + 3 < 1 + 3

2u < 4        Divide 2 on both sides to get "u" by itself

u < 2       (u is any number less than 2)

When the inequality sign is >/< (greater than/less than), the dot/endpoint is an open/unfilled circle.

When the inequality sign is ≥/≤ (greater than or equal to/less than or equal to), the dot is a closed/filled circle.

u < 2        

Start making a ray by placing an open circle on 2(click on the dot/endpoint to change it to be open if it isn't already), then have the ray point left where the numbers would be decreasing because "u" is any number less than 2. If you can place the end of the ray at the end of the number line.

When Judy worked 4 hours and Ben worked 1 hour, their combined pay was $75. When Judy worked 2 hours and Ben worked 6 hours, the
arsen [322]

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

let the hourly rate of pay for Ben  = B

let the hourly rate of pay for Judy  = J

Judy worked 4 hours and Ben worked 1 hour, their combined pay was $75;

              4J + B = 75 ----- i

Judy worked 2 hours and Ben worked 6 hours, their combined pay was $120

               2J + 6B  = 120 --- ii

Now, we should solve the expression;

   Multiply equation ii by 2 and equation i by 1;

 

            4J + B = 75 ----- i    x 1  ;    4J + B  = 75          -- iii

            2J + 6B  = 120 --- ii  x 2 ;   4J + 12B  = 240    ---iv

Now,

 equation iv - iii;

                   11B  = 165

                      B  = $15

So, solving for J;

          4J + B = 75

         4J + 15  = 75

          4J  = 75 - 15  = 60

          J  = $15

In the given figure we can determine the coordinate of point M from the graph, we get:

M=(\frac{d}{2},\frac{c}{2})

We can also determine the coordinates of point N as:

N=(\frac{a+b}{2},\frac{c}{2})

Now, to determine the length of segment MN, we need to subtract the x-coordinate of M from the coordinates of N, we get:

MN=\frac{a+b}{2}-\frac{d}{2}

Subtracting the fractions we get:

MN=\frac{a+b-d}{2}

Now, to obtain the length of AB we need to subtract the x-coordinate of A from the x-coordinate of B.

The coordinates of A are determined from the graph:

A=(0,0)

The coordinates of B are:

B=(a,0)

Therefore, the length of segment AB is:

AB=a

Now we do the same procedure to determine the segment of CD. The coordinates of C are:

C=(b,c)

The coordinates of D are:

D=(d,c)

Therefore, CD is:

CD=b-d

Now, we determine MN as half the sum of the bases. The bases are AB and CD, therefore:

MN=\frac{1}{2}(a+b-d)

Therefore, we have proven that the median of a trapezoid equals half the sum of its bases.
