A survey found that 6 out of 8 students own a pet. If there are 320 students in a school, what is a reasonable prediction for the number of students who own a pet?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 240 students

Explanation:

320 ÷ 8 = 40 (40 groups of 8)

40 x 6 = 240
Answer 2

Answer:

Reasonable prediction = 240 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

6 out of every 8 students own a pet.

Ratio = 6 : 8

Number of students surveyed = 320

Predicted number of students who own pets = x

Ratio = x : 320

As the relationship is proportional;

6 : 8 :: x : 320

Product of mean = Product of extreme

8x = 320 * 6

8x = 1920

Dividing both sides by 8

[tex]\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{1920}{8}\\x=240[/tex]

Hence,

Reasonable prediction = 240 students

200

Answers

Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Replace y with 15

    x - 15 = 30

2. Add 15 to both sides

   x - 15 + 15 = 30 + 15

3. Combine like terms

   x = 45

Estimate the values of x when y=1

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

if one were to put the y value the equation they could find out what x is for a certain value of y

putting the value of y(1), we get the equation

1=4x-1

2=4x

x=0.5

the value of x when y is 1 is =0.5

NOTE: I got this explanation on brainy on someone else I am not taking the credit

a) The graph of y = 4x - 1 is shown in attached image.

b) By using the graph at y = 1 the value of x is 1/2.

What is Linear expression?

A linear expression is an algebraic statement where each term is either a constant or a variable raised to the first power.

Given that;

The function is,

y = 4x - 1

Now, The graph of function y = 4x - 1.

And, At y = 1;

By the graph the value of x = 1/2.

And, In mathematically;

At y = 1

The value of x is;

y = 4x - 1

1 = 4x - 1

4x = 2

x = 2/4

x = 1/2

Thus,

a) The graph of y = 4x - 1 is shown in attached image.

b) By using the graph at y = 1 the value of x is 1/2.

What percent of the large square is shaded?

Answers

Answer:

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

a little less than half is shaded

The percent of the shaded square will be 48%.

What is mean by Percentage?

A number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 or a relative value indicating hundredth part of any quantity is called percentage.

Given that;

A large square is shown in figure.

Now,

In a figure,

The number of small squares = 100

And, Number of shaded squares = 48

Hence, The percent of shaded square = 48/100 × 100

                                                           = 48%

7) x = 75°

8) x = 30°

10) x = 112°

11) x = 58° , y = 58°

Step-by-step explanation:

6) two congruent sides means two congruent angles

   x + x + 40 = 180         2x = 140

7) two congruent sides means two congruent angles

   both base angles measure 75 degrees

8) isosceles triangle (has two equal sides)   75(2) + x = 180    150 + x = 180

10)  two congruent angles means two congruent sides

      44 + 2n = 180      2n = 136      n = 68

      angles n and x form a linear pair and equal 180

      180 - 68 = 112

11) isosceles triangle so ∡x = ∡y   64 + x + x = 180

   64 + 2x = 180      2x = 116        x = 58

The degree of the polynomial function f(x) is 3.
The roots of the equation f(x) = 0 are - 1,0, and 4
Which graph could be the graph of f(x)?

Answers

Answer: Top right corner

This graph shows a curve going through x = -1, x = 0 and x = 4 on the x axis. These are the three roots or x intercepts.

The graph in the bottom right has a root of x = -4, but that's not one of the listed roots in the instructions. So we rule this graph out.

The other two graphs only have two roots, and not three, so we rule them out as well.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the degree of a polynomial function is an odd number, the ends of the graph will go in opposite directions. (one going up and one going down)

The graph must pass the x-axis at the points -1, 0, 4.

Only the top-right graph satisfies our conditions.

Pete bought a shirt on sale for $

18

18, which is one-half the original price. What was the original price of the shirt?

Solution:

Step 1. Read the problem. Make sure you understand all the words and ideas. You may need to read the problem two or more times. If there are words you don’t understand, look them up in a dictionary or on the Internet.

In this problem, do you understand what is being discussed? Do you understand every word?

Step 2. Identify what you are looking for. It’s hard to find something if you are not sure what it is! Read the problem again and look for words that tell you what you are looking for!

In this problem, the words “what was the original price of the shirt” tell you what you are looking for: the original price of the shirt.

Step 3. Name what you are looking for. Choose a variable to represent that quantity. You can use any letter for the variable, but it may help to choose one that helps you remember what it represents.

Let

p

=

p= the original price of the shirt

Step 4. Translate into an equation. It may help to first restate the problem in one sentence, with all the important information. Then translate the sentence into an equation.
