A bag contains 100 marbles which are red, green, and blue. Suppose a student randomly selects a marble without looking, records

the color, and then places the marble back in the bag. The student has recorded 7 red marbles, 2 green marbles and 11 blue marbles. Predict how many red marbles are in the bag.

Answer:

35 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles the student recorded is 20

Now we have to make a ratio of red to the total number of marbles

That would be 7 : 20

After this, there will be a new ratio which is x : 100

Lastly we will solve for x making the equation 20x = 700, x = 35

Answer:

35 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can put the different color marbles in a ratio. So 7:2:11. If we add all of those up we get 20. We do 100/20 to get 5. Each number in the ratio is equivalent to 5 marbles. Then we do 7*5 to get 35. We can check our work by doing, (7*5) + (2*5) + (11*5) = 100. And it does equal 100 so the answer is correct.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a. Since 10 out of 70 had a tag we can write the ratio 10:70. We need to solve for x in 90:x. x = 630 so the answer is 630.

b. An assumption he could have made is that the number of deer that had a tag and the total amount of deer were directly proportional.

Find the standard deviation of the following data. Answers are rounded to the nearest tenth. 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56
kogti [31]

Answer:

24.2(to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is ungrouped data type

standard deviation =√ [∑ (x-μ)² / n]

mean (μ)=∑x/n

           = \frac{5+5+6+12+13+26+37+49+51+56+56+84}{12}

          =33.3

x-μ   for data 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56, 56, 84 will be

                   -28.3, -28.3, -27.3, -21.3, -7.3, 3.7, 15.7,17.7, 22.7,22.7,50.7

(x-μ)² will be 800.89, 800.89,745.29,453.69,53.29,13.69,246.49,313.29,515.29,515.29,2570.49

∑ (x-μ)² will be = 7028.59

standard deviation = √(7028.59 / 12)

                      =24.2

Thomas graphed the line that represents the equation y=34x.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The ordered pairs represent points on the line are

(4, 3) ⇒ C

(2, \frac{3}{2} ) ⇒ D

(-8, -6) ⇒ E

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the ordered pairs represent points on the line, substitute x by the x-coordinate of each point, if the value of y equals the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line.

∵ The equation is y = \frac{3}{4} x

∵ The ordered pair is (8, \frac{1}{6} )

→ Substitute x by 8

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (8)

∴ y = 6

∵ The value of y does not equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (8, \frac{1}{6} ) does not represent a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (\frac{-2}{3}, \frac{1}{2} )

→ Substitute x by \frac{-2}{3}

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (\frac{-2}{3})

∴ y = \frac{-1}{2}

∵ The value of y does not equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair  (\frac{-2}{3}, \frac{1}{2} ) does not represent a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (4, 3 )

→ Substitute x by 4

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (4)

∴ y = 3

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (4, 3) represents a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (2, \frac{3}{2} )

→ Substitute x by 2

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (2)

∴ y = \frac{3}{2}

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (2, \frac{3}{2} ) represents a point on the line

∵ The ordered pair is (-8, -6 )

→ Substitute x by -8

∴ y = \frac{3}{4} (-8)

∴ y = -6

∵ The value of y equal the y-coordinate of the ordered pair

∴ The ordered pair (-8, -6) represents a point on the line

The 11th grade class at Red Hook high school was surveyed about the types of music they liked. Of those surveyed, 64% said they
Zarrin [17]

22% liked neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

64% liked pop music.

52% liked rap music.

38% liked both type of music.

To find out the percentage of those liked neither.

Now,

Let, total number of student = 100

Number of students liked pop = 64

Number of students liked rap = 52

Number of students liked both = 38

So,

Number of students who liked only pop = 64-38 = 26

Number of students who liked only rap = 52-38 = 14

Hence,

Number of students who liked neither = 100 - (26+14+38) = 22

22% liked neither.

Describe the graph represented by the equation r=5/(3+2 sin theta).
Yuki888 [10]
We have the following equation:

r= \frac{5}{3+2sin(\theta)}

If we graph this equation we realize that in fact this is an ellipse with major axis matching the y-axis. So we can recognize these characteristics:

1. Center of the ellipse: 

The midpoint C<span> of the line segment joining the foci is called the </span>center<span> of the ellipse. So in this exercise this point is as follows:
</span>
C(0, -2)

2. Length of major axis:

The line through the foci is called the major axis<span>, so in the figure if you go from -5, at the y-coordinate, and walk through this major axis to the coordinate 1, the distance you run is the length of the major axis, that is:</span>

6 \ units

3. Length of minor axis:

The line perpendicular to the foci through the center is called the minor axis. So in the figure if you go from -2, at the x-coordinate, and walk through this minor axis to the coordinate 2, the distance you run is the length of the minor axis, that is:

4 \ units

4. Foci:

Let's find c as follows:

c=\sqrt{a^{2}-b^{2}}=\sqrt{3^{2}-2^{2}}=\sqrt{5}

Then the foci are:

f_{1}=(0, \sqrt{5}-2)

f_{2}=(0, -\sqrt{5}-2)
