If 9 of the sparrows is 45% of the birds in the backyard, 9/x = 45/100.

Cross multiply to get 9 * 100 = 45x; simplified is 900 = 45x or 20.

This means that there are 20 birds in the backyard. You can check this by dividing 9/20 which equals 45%

Find the mean, median and mode of the weights of the people shown. 105kg 53kg 76kg 91kg 120kg 61kg 55kg 98kg 61kg
Yuliya22 [10]
First, you need to put them in order
53kg, 55kg, 61kg, 61kg, 76kg, 91kg, 98kg, 105kg, 120kg

For mean, you add them all up and divide by the amount of numbers (9)
720/9 = 80

For median, you find the middle number (76kg)

For mode, you find the number that appears the most (61kg)

Mean: 80
Median: 76
Mode: 61

a movie theater has 14 different movies showing. If you want to attend no more than 3 of the movies, how many different combinat
zvonat [6]
14C3 = 14! / 11!3! 

<span>= 14 x13 x12 / 3x2x1 </span>
<span>= 2184 / 6 </span>
<span>= 364 different combinations </span>

<span>The first movie can be any of 14 </span>
<span>As you have already seen one the second movie can be any of the 13 remaining </span>
<span>As you have already seen two the third movie can be any of the 12 remaining. </span>

<span>Therefore there are 14 x 13 x 12 = 2184 PERMUTATIONS of movies you can see. </span>
<span>However among those 2184 different permutations will be instances where you have watched the same three movies but just in a different order. </span>
<span>eg ET, The Piano, Harry Potter = ET Harry Potter The Piano = The Piano, ET, Harry Potter = The Piano Harry Potter ET = Harry Potter ET The Piano = Harry Potter The Piano ET. </span>
<span>For each set of three films there are 3! or 3x2x1 or SIX different ways they can be arranged in. </span>
<span>Therefore we need to DIVIDE the above 2184 permutations by 6 to get the number of COMBINATIONS of different films that can be watched. </span>
<span>2184 / 6 = 364</span>

After a dreary day of rain, the sun peeks through the clouds and rainbow forms. You notice the rainbow is the shape of a parabol
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

We are given that,

The equation of the rainbow is represented by the parabola,

y=-x^2+36

Now, we are required to find a linear equation which cuts the graph of the parabola at two points.

Let us consider the equation joining the points (-6,0) and (0,36), given by y=6x+36.

So, the corresponding table for the linear equation is given by,

x             y=6x+36

-6                      0

0                       36

1                        42

6                       72

Now, we will answer the questions corresponding the functions.

1. Domain and Range of the rainbow.

Since, the equation of the rainbow is y=-x^2+36

So, from the figure, we get that,

Domain is the set of all real numbers.

Range is the set \{ y|y\leq 36 \}

<em>Here, domain represents the points which are used to plot the path of the rainbow and range represents the points which are form the rainbow.</em>

Not all points make sense in the range as the parabola is opening downwards having maximum point as (0,36).

2. X and Y-intercepts of the rainbow.

<em>As, the 'x and y-intercepts are the points where the graph of the function cuts x-axis and y-axis respectively i.e. where y=0 and x=0 receptively'.</em>

We see that from the figure below,

X-intercepts are (-6,0) and (6,0) and the Y-intercept is (0,36)

<em>Here, these intercepts represents the point where the parabola intersects the individual axis.</em>

3. Is the linear function positive or negative.

As the linear function is y=6x+36 represented by the <em>upward flight of the drone.</em>

So, the linear function is a positive function.

4. The solution of the system of equations is the intersection points of their graphs.

So, from the figure, we see that the equations intersect at the points (-6,0) and (0,36).

<em>Thus, the solution represents the position when both the drone and rainbow intersect each other.</em>
