\begin{array}{ccc}10\ lb&-&\$6.55\\\\1\ lb&-&\$ x\end{array}\ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\\\\\10\cdot x=1\cdot6.55\\\\10x=6.55\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 10\\\\x=\frac{6.55}{10}\\\\x=0.65\underline{5}\approx\boxed{\$0.66}\\

If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up (+1).

There are 420 students. 63 students were out sick. What percent of the student population is ill?
emmainna [20.7K]
To find the percentage,here's what we can do:
\frac{student \: out \: sick}{original \: population} \times 100\%

The percentage would then be:
=63/420×100%
=3/20×100%
=0.15×100%
=15%

Therefore the answer is 15%.

Hope it helps!

For the graph, what is a reasonable constraint so that the function is at least 300?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

C) 0 ≤ x ≤ 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are supposed to find a reasonable constraint so that the function is at least 300 i.e. the value of x at which f(x) is greater or equal to 300

A)x ≥ 0

Refer the graph

At x = 0

f(x)=300

On increasing the value of x , f(x) increases but at x = 12 it starts decreasing

So, x ≥ 0 can also have f(x)<300

So, Option A is wrong

B)−5 ≤ x ≤ 30

At x = -5

f(x) = 100

So, Option B is wrong since we require f(x) is greater or equal to 300

c)0 ≤ x ≤ 25

At x = 0

f(x)=300

At x = 12 , it starts decreasing

At x = 25

f(x)=300

So, The value of f(x) is at least 300 when 0 ≤ x ≤ 25

D)All real numbers

At x = 30

f(x)=0

But we require f(x) greater or equal to 300

Hence Option C is true
