A school board voted whether to adopt a new math text book.Those that voted yes outvoted those that voted no by a ratio of 5:1 if 18 total school board members voted in the meeting how many voted yes for new math books?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Members that voted yes = 15 Members

Step-by-step explanation:

Members that voted yes : members that voted no = 5 : 1

Total ratio = 5 + 1 = 6

total school board members that voted = 18

how many voted yes for new math books?

Members that voted yes = 5/6 × 18

= 0.8333333333333 × 18

= 15 members

Members that voted yes = 15 Members

members that voted no = 1/6 × 18

= 0.1666666666666 × 18

= 3

members that voted no = 3 members

Ellen has a bag with 3 red marbles and 2 blue marbles in it. She is going to randomly draw a marble from the bag 300 times, putting the marble back in the bag after each draw. 3 red marbles and 2 blue marbles What is the best prediction for the number of times that Ellen will draw a blue marble?

Answers

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue marbles = 2

Red marbles = 3

Total marbles = 2 + 3 = 5

If a marble is drawn 300 times ;prediction for the number of times a blue marble will be drawn :

P(drawing a blue marble) = number of blue marbles / total number of marbles

= 2 /5 = 0.4

Predicted number of times blue is drawn in 300 selections :

300 * 0.4 = 120

Approximately 120 times

write an equation in slope-intercept for the line that has a slope of 1/2 and goes through the point (4, 7)

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for an equation is y = mx + b

m is the slope. It is given

y = 1/2x + b

b is the y-intercept

In this case, we must substitute to find the y-intercept

We are given coordinate pair (4,7)

Plug our pair in and we get => 7 = 1/2(4) + b

=> 7 = 2 + b

easily, we find b = 5

We get our equation: y = 1/2x + 5

The circumference of a circle is approximately 131.88 centimeters What is the area of the shaded region (6/10 of a circle)

Answers

Answer:

82.97cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Circumference=  131.88 centimeters

We want to find the area of 6/10 part of a circle

Firstly, let us find the area of the circle

We need to get the radius

C= 2πr

131.88= 2*3.142*r

131.88=6.284r

r=  131.88/6.284

r=20.98 cm

Area= πr^2

Area= 3.142*20.98^2

Area= 3.142*440.16

Area= 1382.98cm^2

Hence 6/10 of a 1382.98

=0.06*1382.98

=82.97cm^2

Each car on a computer train holds 20 people. On a particular morning, 5 cars were 90% full and 3 cars were 65% full. If the people were rearranged to fill as many cars as possible, how many cars would be filled?

Answers

Answer:

7 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of cars to be filled is shown below:

A car that is 90% full and the total people is 20 so 90% would be

= (.90)(20)

= 18

A car that is 65% full and the total people is 20 so 65% would be

= (.65)(20)

= 13

Now

Total number of people = (5)(18) + (3)(13).

= 129

Now the number of cars to be filled is

= 129 ÷ 20

= 6.45

= 7 cars

Answers

Answer:

-1 and 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation;

f(x) = 3x^2-x-4

To get all potential roots, we will equate f(x) = 0

3x^2-x-4 = 0

3x^2-4x+3x-4 = 0

x(3x-4)+1(3x-4) = 0

(x+1)(3x-4) = 0

x+1= 0 and 3x-4 = 0

x = -1 and 3x = 4

x = -1 and x= 4/3

Hence the potential roots are -1 and 4/3
