Answer:

The answer to your question is 14 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total students = 70

40% sixth-graders

20% seventh graders

40% eighth graders

The Number of seventh-graders = ?

Process

1.- Use proportions and cross multiplication to solve this problem

                 70 students ----------------------- 100 %

                  x                   ----------------------  20 %

                  x = (20 x 70) / 100

                  x = 1400 / 100

                 x = 14 students are seventh-graders

                  70 students --------------------- 100 %

                  x                   ---------------------   40%

                  x = (40 x 70) / 100

                  x = 2800 / 100

                  x = 28 students are sixth graders

Eighth-graders = 70 - 14 - 28

                         = 28

Answer:

14 students are 7th graders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know 20% of 70 are seventh graders, convert 20% into a decimal and then multiply it by 70 to get 14 students:

20% = 0.2

0.2(70) = 14 seventh grade band members

Answer:

A better option to express the results will be a cumulative frequency curve.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the moment, the moment, the question does not have a histogram, so we will explain the advantages of a frequency distribution curve or polygon.

The Cumulative Frequency Curve allows data to be interpreted continuously. The cumulative frequency prevents "gaps" that are found in the histograms. For instance, a histogram does not provide a frequency distribution of a certain type of data. In addition, the curves clarify better the trends in the data set. Furthermore, large data can be compressed and summarized in a compact form by using the distribution in the data set.

The perimeter of the norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag?
mario62 [17]
<span>The dimensions are 40 inches by 55 inches.

Explanation<span>:
We know that perimeter is the sum of all of the sides. Since this is rectangular, opposite sides are equal. This gives us
y+11/8y+y+11/8y=190.

Combining like terms, we have
2y+22/8y=190.

Writing 22/8 as a mixed number, we have
2y+2 3/4y=190
4 3/4y=190.

Divide both sides by 4 3/4:
(4 3/4y)</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4).

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(19/4).

To divide fractions, flip the second one and multiply:
 y=190*(4/19)=760/19=40.

Since y=40, 11/8y=11/8(40)=440/8=55.</span></span>
