A national survey of 50,000 sixth graders asked if they know what they would like to do when they get older. Suppose you ask 350

sixth graders if they know what career they want to pursue and 182 student say they do not know. Predict the number of the 50,000 sixth graders that would say they do not know.

Answer:

26,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A national survey of 50,000 sixth graders asked if they know what they would like to do when they get older. Suppose you ask 350 sixth graders if they know what career they want to pursue and 182 student say they do not know. The number of the 50,000 sixth graders that would say they do not know is 26,000.

182 out of 350 students did NOT know.

182 ÷ 350 = 0.52 or 52%

52% = Students who didn't know

50,000 sixth graders in all

50,000 ⋅ 0.52 = 26,000

Therefore, 26,000 students would NOT know.

You asked 350 students, 182 did not know.

182/350 = 0.52 = 52% of the students didn't know.

Multiply the total of the national survey by 52%:

50,000 x 0.52 = 26,000

The answer is 26,000 wouldn't know.

Triangle ABC was dilated and translated to form similar triangle A'B'C'.
Hunter-Best [27]
Dilation refers to a non rigid motion where a figure is transform and its image has the same form but a different size measure.

On this exercise is asked to find the scale factor by which the triangle ABC was 
dilated to produce the triangle A'B'C'. 
Dilation is define by the rule (x,y)-- (kx, ky) where k represents the scale factor.

As can be see on the picture the dilation produce was an enlargement meaning that the image is larger that the preimage.
Of this form you can discard the choices A and B as possible solutions.

Lets try 5/2 as the possible scale factor:
(x,y)-- (kx, ky)
A(0,2)--(5/2(0),5/2(2))=A'(0,5)
B(2,2)--(5/2(2),5/2(2))=B'(5,5)
C(2,0)--(5/2(2),5/2(0))=C'(5,0)

Lets try 5/1 or 5 as the scale factor:
A(0,2)--(5(0),5(2))=A'(0,10)
B(2,2)--(5(2),5(2))=B'(10,10)
C(2,0)--(5(2),5(0))=C'(10,0)

As said at the beginning of the question the triangle was not only dilated.
After a dilation and a translation, the scale factor of the dilation is letter C or 5/2.

A combination washer/dryer costs $1,179. New parts for this washer/dryer cost $211, labor to repair it costs $553, and shipping
Keith_Richards [23]
The better deal is the Full Warranty, by approximately 174 dollars. To solve the cost of the full warranty, simply multiply 30 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer.30 x 1,179 = 353.70. You do not need to add anything to this because the warranty covers the extra costs. To solve for the cost of the limited warranty, multiply 14 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer, plus the cost of the new parts and the repair center costs (the warranty only covers the labor repair costs): (.14 x 1,179) + 211 + 152 --> 165.06 + 211 + 152 = 528.06. The full warranty is clearly cheaper. To figure out by how much, simply subtract the full warranty from the limited warranty: 528.06 - 353.70 = 174.36. To round to the nearest number, take off the decimal: 174. So that means your answer is D hope this helps.

Cynthia rounds a number, x,to one decimal place. the result is 6.3.
gladu [14]

The answer is: 6.25\leq6.3

The explanation is shown below:

1. Cynthia rounds the number, which is identified as x, to one decimal place and the result is 6.3.

2. Based on this, we know that x could have been between 6.25 and 6.35. Therefore, the error interval for x is given by:

 6.25\leq6.3

Where \leq indicates that the value 6.25 is included and indicates that the value 6.35 is not included (Because if x had been exactly 6.35, Cynthia would round up to 6.4).
