Answer:

45%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's set up a fraction of how much money she spent for fruit out of the total amount of money she spent.

\frac{9}{20}

For a percentage, we need a fraction out of 100. To do this, we can multiply  the fraction by 5/5 (5*20=100). Notice we can only do this since 5/5 is equivalent to 1, so you are technically multiplying the fraction by 1.

\frac{9}{20}*\frac{5}{5}=\frac{45}{100}

A percentage is just the numerator of a number over 100 therefore it is equal to...

45%

Solve: −3(5+8x)−20≤−11
Tatiana [17]
-3(5 + 8x) - 20 ≤ -11  |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

-15 - 24x - 20 ≤ -11

-35 - 24x ≤ -11    |add 35 to both sides

-24x ≤ 24      |change signs

24x ≥ -24    |divide both sides by 24

x ≥ -1

Data:

15 16 14 15 19 17

n=6 points

sum is 96

mean is 96/6 = 16

Now we look at the absolute deviations, each of which is the absolute value of a score minus the mean, basically the distance of the score to the mean .

Scores   15 16 14 15 19 17

AbsDev    1  0  2  1    3  1

The sum of the absolute deviations is 8 and there are six of them so the

Mean Absolute Deviation = 8/6 = 4/3

Answer: 2.    8/6

15x+5y=30 with y by itself​
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

15 x 1 + 5 x 3 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If you turn the x into a one then it multiplies 15 by one and then it remains at 15, then you multiply 5 and 3 so that's 15 and then 15 + 15 is 30.
