12 times 5 is 60.5 people would have the same sign with everyone else. The answer is 61.  At 60, every sign could only have 5 people at the worst case scenario. After one more, or 61, one sign has to have 6 people with the same sign.

Imagine a cake. OK? Now divide the cake in 2 equal pieces, each one is ½ of the cake.
Now divide each piece in 2 halves; each one is ¼ of the cake. Witch is largest? 1:2=0,5; 1:4=0,25. 0,5>0,25.

5:6=0,83333
29:36=0,80555
0,83>0,80 so 5/6 is the largest.

Do this for each group.

a.5/6
b.5/8
c.19/45

Systems of equations:

$152.50 = 10x + 8y
$171 = 8x + 10y

Solving for x and y:
x = $4.36/ hour in the movie theater
y = $13.61/ hour in the pet store.<span />

ohaa [14]

Answer:

D. Obtain a cluster sample by randomly selecting 20 counties and visiting every restaurant within those counties.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this executive wants to minimize cost and expenses he should use a cluster sample of 20 counties and using the selected counties as a representative of the whole. Cluster sampling is a good and useful way of doing market research. It is more economical than other sampling methods and as the executive cannot get information on the whole population, he would be able to get information from the clusters.

Which oh the following are among the five basic postulates of Euclidean geometry
igomit [66]

1. A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points.

2. Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.

3. Given any straight line segment, a circle can be drawn having the segment as radius and one endpoint as center.

4. All right angles are congruent.

5. If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles, then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side if extended far enough. This postulate is equivalent to what is known as the parallel postulate.
