Complete question is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Percentile is 74th percentile

Step-by-step explanation:

All the lengths given are;

Bear Lengths 36.5 37.5 39.5 40.5 41.5 42.5 43.0 46.0 46.5 46.5 48.5 48.5 48.5 49.5 51.5 52.5 53.0 53.0 54.5 56.8 57.5 58.5 58.5 58.5 59.0 60.5 60.5 61.0 61.0 61.5 62.0 62.5 63.5 63.5 63.5 64.0 64.0 64.5 64.5 65.5 66.5 67.0 67.5 69.0 69.5 70.5 72.0 72.5 72.5 72.5 72.5 73.0 76.0 77.5

The number of lengths (inches) of bears given are 54 in number.

We are looking for the percentile corresponding to 65.5 in.

Looking at the lengths given, since they are already arranged from smallest to highest, let's locate the position of 65.5 in.

The position of 65.5 in is the 40th among 54 lengths given.

If the percentile is P, then;

P% x 54 = 40

P = (40 × 100)/54

P ≈ 74

ANSWER:

Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share. The algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

Solution:

Given, Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share with a book club.

Each box contains 12 cookies.

So, in total we have 3 x 12 cookies = 36 cookies.

Now, we have to find how many cookies can each person p will get.

Let, the total number of persons be x.

Then, after equally sharing the cookies,

$\text { Number of cookies with each person }=\frac{\text {number } of \text { cookies available.}}{\text {total number of persons}}$

$=\frac{36}{x} \text { cookies. }$

Hence, the algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

What weight of dry substance is in 150g of a 3% substance solution? What weight of an 8% solution can we have with the same weig

Leto [7]

4.5 g 56.25 g Since the only type of measurement mentioned in this question is weight or mass, I'll assume that the percentage concentration is % m/m (mass/mass). For that type of concentration measurement, simply multiple the percentage by the total mass to get the mass of the desired substance. So 150 g * 3% = 150 g * 0.03 = 4.5g For the amount of 8% solution with the same amount of dry substance, there's 2 ways of calculating the mass of solution. First, use the ratio of percentages, multiplied by the mass of the original solution to get the desired amount of new solution: 3/8 * 150 g = 56.35 g Or calculate it from scratch, like 4.5/X = 8/100 450/X = 8 450 = 8X 56.25 = X In both cases, the result is that you desire 56.25 grams of 8% solution.
