Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find equivalent fractions, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number, so we need to multiply the denominator of 7 by a number that will give us 21. Since 3 multiplied by 7 gives us 21, we can find an equivalent fraction by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 3.Oct 4, 2021

The box plots show the weights, in pounds, of the dogs in two different animal shelters.

zimovet [89]

*see attachment below for the box plots that is being referred to

Answer:

*The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B

*The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take each stated option and examine the box plot to see which is TRUE or NOT.

OPTION 1: "The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B."

The median for shelter A = 21,

Median for shelter B = 18

Median weight for shelter A (21) is greater than that for shelter B.

This statement in this option is TRUE.

OPTION 2: "The median weight for shelter B is greater than that for shelter A."

Median for B (18) < median of A (21)

This statement in option is NOT TRUE.

OPTION 3: "The data for shelter A are a symmetric data set."

This is NOT TRUE because the length of both whiskers are unequal and also, the box is not divided equally. One side is longer than the other.

OPTION 4: "The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set."

This is TRUE because the length of both whiskers are relatively equal, and also, the rectangular box is divided equally.

OPTION 5: "The interquartile range for shelter A is 8"

This is NOT TRUE.

IQR = Q3-Q1

IQR for shelter A is approximately = 28-17 = 11

Sheila is baking a few cakes for the bake sale for her school. Each cake requires 2 ½ cups of sugar. How many cakes can she bake

Ber [7]

Answer:

The answer is 2 cakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

-Each cake requires 2 1/2 cups of sugar.

-Sheila has 7 1/3 cups of sugar.

What we need to know:

-How many cakes can Sheila make with 7 1/3 cups of sugar.

Remember:

-You must make a whole cake.

Show your work:

-I am going to convert the fraction into a decimal.

-2 1/2=2.5 and 7 1/3=7.3

-2 cakes will require 5 cups of sugar and you will remain with 2.3 cups of sugar.

-You cannot use 2.3 cups of sugar to make a cake. It must be in full.

Based on surveys, 97% of students own cell phones. What is the probability that 10 randomly selected

yarga [219]

Answer:

$Probability = 0.7374$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the probability that a student has a phone with p

$p = 97\%$

Required

Determine the probability that 10 has

This is calculated as thus:

$Probability = p^n$

Where n = 10

$Probability = (97\%)^{10}$

$Probability = 0.97^{10}$

$Probability = 0.73742412689$

$Probability = 0.7374$ --- Approximated
