Ernest bought some cans of paint and 4/5 of a liter of special paint additive formulated to reduce mildew. Before painting his house, he used all of the additive to put 2/5 of a liter of additive in each can. How many cans of paint did Ernest buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He bought 2 cans of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

If he put ⅖ in each, and ⅘ total, he would have had 2 cans

Answer 2

Quantity of special paint additive Ernest bought = [tex] \tt \frac{4}{5} \: of \: a \: litre [/tex]

Quantity of additive he put in each can = [tex] \tt \frac{2}{5} \: of \: a \: litre [/tex]

Number of cans of paint he bought :

[tex] =\tt \frac{4}{5} \div \frac{2}{5} [/tex]

[tex] = \tt\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{5}{2} [/tex]

[tex] = \tt\frac{4 \times 5}{5 \times 2} [/tex]

[tex] =\tt \frac{20}{10} [/tex]

[tex]\color{plum} = \tt2 \: paint \: cans[/tex]

▪︎Therefore, Ernest bought 2 paint cans.

8 is not in the solution set

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, -y + 7 < -4

To find out if 8 is in the solution set, substitute y = 8 in the inequality and solve to see if the statement would be true.

Thus:

-8 + 7 < -4

-1 < -4

This -1 is less than -4. This is actually not TRUE. -1 is rather greater than -4.

Therefore, 8 is not in the solution set.

15[tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

ok...each of those boxes are 1/2 cm

What is the easiest thing to do is to count the front of the rectangular prism and there are 15 cubes. Now double it, and you get 30 cubes, now since each cube is 1/2 or 0.5, we get can do 0.5 x 30 and we get 15

The Wall Street Journal reported that the median salary for middle-level manager jobs was approximately $85,000 (The Wall Street Journal, August 6, 2013). Suppose that an independent study of middle-level managers employed at companies located in Atlanta, Georgia, was conducted to compare the salaries of managers working at firms in Atlanta to the national average. The following data show the salary, in thousands of dollars, for a 8. sample of 15 middle-level managers.
108 83 106 73 53 85 80 63 67 75 124 55 93 118 77
a. Compute the median salary for the sample of 15 middle-level managers. How does the median for this group compare to the median reported by The Wall Street Journal?
b. Compute the mean annual salary and discuss how and why it differs from the median a. b. computed in part (a).
c. Compute the first and third quartiles.

Answers

Answer:

Median = $80,000 ; Mean = $84,000 ; Q1 = 67,000 ; Q3 = 106,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

108 83 106 73 53 85 80 63 67 75 124 55 93 118 77

Reorderd data :

53, 55, 63, 67, 73, 75, 77, 80, 83, 85, 93, 106, 108, 118, 124

The median salary:

1/2(n+1)th term

Sample size, n = 15

1/2 (15 + 1)th term

1/2(16)th term

8th term = 80

Median is $80,000

Median reported by Wall Street Journal approximately $85000

The obtained and reported values are close

The mean annual salary :

ΣX / n = 1260 / 15 = 84

Mean annual salary = $84,000

Mean is the average of all earnings combined, median is the mid value of he data.

First and third quartile :

Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(16)th term

Q1 = 4th term = 67

Third quartile:.

Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(16)th term

Q3 = 12th term = 106

victoria read a book 35 everyweekend for first month 50 min second month 65 min third month 80 min 4 the month which method is used linear or exponential

Answers

Answer:

Zach time of reading every weekend forms a sequence with these terms: 10, 20, 40, 80. On the other hand, that of Victoria forms a sequence with terms: 35, 50, 65, 80. By keenly observing the sequences, Zach's sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio equal to 2 and Victoria's sequence is an arithmetic or linear sequence with a common difference of 15. Thus, the answer is letter B.
