Answer:

184

Step-by-step explanation:

convert percentage into decimal:

40% = 40/100 = 0.4

Therefore 40% of 460 = 0.4 x 460 = 184

Solution:

Note that:

460 students = Total
40% = Male

Use the percentage formula to find out how much males attended the freedom academy.

Total males/Total students x 100 = % of males
=> x/460 x 100 = 40%
=> x/46 x 10 = 40%
=> x/23 x 5 = 40%
=> 5x/23 = 40%
=> 5x = 920
=> x = 920/5 = 184

184 males attended the Freedom academy.

How to mark on a number line if it is greater than or equal to

Alik [6]

Answer: Check explanation.

Step-by-step explanation: Let's say the equation is 4x ≥ 32, you can mark it on the number line with a filled in dot on 8 and arrow going to the right (increasing) forever. The dot indicates that the answer could be 8, and the arrow indicates it can be more than 8. Hope this helped!

A. 0 B. 1 C. 2 D. 3

zloy xaker [14]

-19 to -15 would be a positive 4 difference

19 to 15 = 4 this would be a -4 difference

3 to 7 is a positive 4 difference

-3 to 7 is a difference of 10

so there is 1 with a -4 difference
answer is B.

The scatter plot below shows the high temperature for one day and the number of coats in the theater coat check on that same day

Setler [38]

Answer:

the number of coats in the coat check will most likely decrease if the temperatures decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Im guessing this answer: Number of coats in the coat check will decrease because the graph shows negative association

But it could also be this answer: Number of coats in the coat check will decrease because the graph shows positive association

I think the graph shows a negative association because when the temperature goes down, the coat check goes down as well

Consider circle O. If AE = 7, EC = 2, and BE = 4, what is ED?

miv72 [106K]

The correct answer is 3.5

Two chords AC and BD are intersecting inside the circle. The Intersecting Chord Theorem states that when two chords intersect inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.

Thus, for the given circle:
(AE) × (EC) = (BE) × (ED)

The lengths of the segments are
AE = 7
EC = 2
BE = 4
ED = ?

To solve for ED, we simply substitute the known values into the equation
$ED = \frac{7(2)}{4} = \frac{14}{4} = 3.5$

Find the value of X round your number to the nearest tenths Explain it please

Anarel [89]

In this case, we must use trigonometry to find the value of x:

$tan(\alpha )=\frac{side-opposite-angle}{side-beside-angle} \\tan(70) = \frac{x}{3} \\3*tan(70) = x\\x = 3*tan(70)\\x = 8.24$

Thus the value of x rounded to the nearest tenth is 8.2

Hope that helps!
