<span>If dog food costs $2 a pound and Cara buys 9 pounds, her expenditure on dog food is 9 x 2. This makes $18. If she has a total budget of $25 and spends $18 on dog food, she has $7 left over for treats (25 - 18 = 7). At $1 each, she can buy up to 7 treats.</span>

18% of the the students at a school are in year 8 and 16% of the students are in year 9. If the school has 126 tera 8 students,
yarga [219]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of all percentage questions is: the chunk= (some percentage) (of the whole), or c=p*w

We know that 18% of students are 8th grade and that is 126 students, so p = 0.18 and c=126 (126 students are 18% of the whole school)

126 = (0.18)w, divide both sides by 0.18

126/(0.18) = w = 700

9th graders are 16% of the school or 16% of 700 students

c = (0.16) 700 = 112 students

David wants to install a fence around his garden. The garden is rectangular and has an area of 240 square feet. One side of the
oee [108]

Answer:

$996

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular plot has an area that is the product of its length and width. We are given the width as 12 feet, and the area as 240 ft², so we can find the length from ...

... A = L×W

... 240 ft² = L×(12 ft)

... 240 ft²/(12 ft) = L = 20 ft

Opposite sides of the rectangle are the same length, so the cost of fence for a side of a given length will be the sum of the costs of the opposites sides.

The 12 ft side has one segment that is $18 per foot, and one that is $15 per foot. For the 20 ft sides, both are $15 per foot. Then the total cost can be figured from ...

... (12 ft)·($18/ft + $15/ft) + (20 ft)·($15/ft +$15/ft) = 12·$33 +20·$30 = $996

In the United States, 75 percent of adults wear glasses or contact lenses. A random sample of 10 adults in the United States wil
V125BC [204]

Answer:

0.4745 is the probability that fewer than 8 of the selected adults wear glasses or contact lenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

We treat adult adults wear glasses or contact lenses as a success.

P(Adults wear glasses or contact lenses) = 75% = 0.75

Then the number of adults follows a binomial distribution, where

P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 10

We have to evaluate:

P(fewer than 8 of the selected adults wear glasses or contact lenses)

P(x < 8)\\=1 - P(x = 8) - P(x = 9) - P(x = 10)\\=1 - \binom{10}{8}(0.75)^8(1-0.75)^2 - \binom{10}{9}(0.75)^9(1-0.75)^1- \binom{10}{10}(0.75)^10(1-0.75)^0\\=1 - 0.2815-0.1877-0.0563\\= 0.4745

0.4745 is the probability that fewer than 8 of the selected adults wear glasses or contact lenses.

HELP!!!!
Nonamiya [84]
Your answer is E. $25.

First let under 12 = u, over 12 = o, and adults = a.
We can now write the equations:

2u + 3a + 3o = 174
4u + 2a = 122
a + o = 46

Because we know that a + o = 46, and 3a + 3o is in the first equation, we can multiply 46 by 3 to get what 3a + 3o equals. This makes 138.
Now we can substitute 138 into the first equation to get 2u + 138 = 174
2u = 36
u = 18

Now that we know what u equals, we can substitute it in to the second equation to get:
4(18) + 2a = 122
72 + 2a = 122
2a = 50
a = $25

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
