Answer:

<h2>$128</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on rate.

firstly we have to find the rate at which 1 ton is sold

given that 3/8 ton is sold for $24

hence 1 ton will be sold for X

cross multiply

X = 24/3/8

inverse the denominator and multiply the result with the numerator we have

X= 24*8/3

X= $64

Now having found out that 1 ton cost $64

2 tons will cost =64*2

                         = $128

Therefore at this rate two tons will cost $128

Check the first picture below.

now, the exercise states to get it from the graph, so we have to graph it first.

Check the second picture below.

recall, the height in feet is on the y-axis, and the time in seconds is on the x-axis.

and rounded up to the nearest tenth will be 0.6.

What two partial products would you add to find 513 x 46
Afina-wow [57]
First, let me do the Mathematical part of that, and then I shall explain the theory behind it.

Mathematical part:
We are going to multiply 513 with 46. So the two partial products that we are going to choose are 40 and 6.

Multiply 513 with 6 first.

    513
    x46
--------------------------
      18 (as 6*3 = 18)
      60 (as 6*10 = 60; In 513, the digit at tenths place is 1, so 1*10=10)
  3000 (as 6*500 = 3000; In 513, 5 is at hundredth place, so 5*100=500)
    120 (as 40*3 = 120; since 4 is at the tenth place, so 4*10=40)
    400 (as 40*10 = 400)
20000 (as 40*500 = 20000)
--------------------------
23598 (Add all of them)


Theory:
As you can see above that we have chosen the two partial products individually which are 6 and 40. Since 4 in 46 is in tenth place, we have to consider it 40 (since 4*10 = 40). One by one, we first multiply 6 with 513. Then we move to the tenth place, and multiply 513 with 40. At the end, we have added all the results we found after multiplication.

Check: If we check the multiplication result by using the calculator, we would get the same result (23598).

Another Method (instant):
513 * (40+6) = (513*40) + (513*6) = 23598.

An employment agency requires applicants average at least 70% on a battery of four job skills tests. If an applicant scored 70%,
brilliants [131]

Answer:

atleast 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an employment agency requires applicants average at least 70% on a battery of four job skills tests.

An applicant scored 70%, 77%, and 81% on the first three exams,

Since weightages are not given we can assume all exams have equal weights

Let x be the score on the 4th test

Then total of all 4 exams = 70+77+81+x\\= 228+x

Average should exceed 70%

i.e.\bar X \geq 70\\Total\geq 70(4) =280

Comparing the two totals we have

228+x\geq 280\\x\geq 280-228 = 52

Hemust  score on the fourth test a score atleast 52 to maintain a 70% or better average.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

They are dependent because we have to select from people who are given cards.

Step By Step Explanation:

So we'll take away people not given cards first den find the probability of selecting people with cards over the total number of people present .

Probability we'll be equal to = number of people with card(C) two persons/total number of people

Where C represent combination
