Jason measured rainfall for a science project. Last week it rained 3 1/8 inches in all. This week it rained 1 7/8 inches on one day and 2 3/4 inches on another. How many more inches did it rain this week than last week? Explain how you found your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  1 1/2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much more a second number is than a first number, the first is subtracted from fhe second. Here, we want to know how much more the second week total is than the first, so we subtract the first week's total from the second week's total.

__

We find the second week's total by adding up the values associated with the different days in the second week.

  second week's total = 1 7/8 +2 3/4 = (1 +2) +(7/8 +6/8) = 3 13/8 = 4 5/8

Then the difference is ...

  second week's total - first week's total

  = 4 5/8 -3 1/8 = (4 -3) +(5/8 -1/8) = 1 4/8 = 1 1/2

It rained 1 1/2 inches more this week than last week.

In circle O. AD and BE are diameters. The measure of arc AB is 55° and the measure of arc CD is 25° B с F D E What is the measure of BC ? 090 O 110 O 100 O 80​

Answers

Answer:

100°

Step-by-step explanation:

the total of all angles around O on one side of AD is 180° (as that would represent a half-circle).

and the sum of the arc angles AB + BC + CD covers the whole 180°.

so, we have

180 = 55 + BC + 25

180 = 80 + BC

BC = 100°

Answers

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the mean absolute deviation of the set of numbers ...

  {9, 2, 9, 9, 5, 4, 9, 1, 4, 10}

MAD

The mean of this 10-number set of data is 6.2. The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is found by subtracting that from the members of the dataset, taking the absolute values of the result, and finding the means of those.

The attachment shows those calculations.

The MAD of this set of data is 3.

__

Additional comment

The period (decimal point) in the column of numbers suggests this is a 6-number dataset, and the last 4 numbers are answer choices. If that is the case, none of those answer choices is correct. That is why we assumed that this problem has a 10-number dataset.

When you're calculating this by hand, you only need to consider the values for which the deviation is negative. The MAD is twice their total absolute value, divided by the number of numbers in the dataset. Here, that is 2(4.2+2.2+5.2+2.2+1.2)/10 = 3. (Numbers 2, 5, 4, 1, 4 are less than the mean of 6.2.)

You need to buy insulation to cover the inside of a shipping container. The container is a rectangular prism that is 15 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 7 feet high. How much insulation do you need to buy if you want to insulate all the inside surfaces of the shipping container except the floor?

Answers

Answer:

  442 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of insulation needed is the amount that covers the area of the side walls and the ceiling. The area of the side walls is the product of the perimeter and height. The area of the ceiling is the product of length and width.

__

Lateral area = Ph = 2(L+W)h = 2(15 ft +8 ft)(7 ft) = 322 ft²

Ceiling area = LW = (15 ft)(8 ft) = 120 ft²

__

Insulation needed = lateral area + ceiling area = 322 ft² +120 ft²

Insulation needed = 442 ft²

A suit is on sale for 72% off. The sale price is $263.20.
What is the regular price?

Answers

Answer:

940

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original price of something that been discount do the following:

Subtract the discount from 100 to get the percentage of the original price.Multiply the final price by 100.Divide by the percentage in Step One.

Or we can do the following:

We shall consider the original price as x; hence the discount can be considered as (x−263.20). We can write the equation:

x · 72/100=x - 263.20

x · 18/25 = x - 263.20

Multiply both sides by 25

18x = 25(x - 263.20)

Open the brackets.

18x = 25x-6580

Add 6580 to each side.

6580 +18x = 25x

Subtract 18x from each side.

6580 = 7x

Subtract 7x from each side.

x = 940

Check Answer:

940 * 72% = 676.80

940 - 676.80=263.20

Hence, the regular price is 940.

~lenvy~

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price ( The marked price ) :- $263.20

A manager drew this box-and-whisker plot to represent the number of minutes each of the company's 360 employees took on their break.


Box-and-whisker plot ranging from 34 to 58 with ticks at increments of one half. Plot defined by points at 35, 37, 41, 49, 55


How many employees took a break that lasted between 37 and 41 minutes?


Select from the drop-down menu to correctly complete the statement.


About (blank) employees took a break that lasted between 37 and 41 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

37 and 41 is only in the 25% percentile.  

360 X .25 = 90

Plus, I took the K12 test and got it right.

The number of employees took a break that lasted between 37 and 41 minutes is 60.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value. Unitary method is a technique by which we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple devices and the value of more than one unit from the value of a single unit. It is a method that we use for most of the calculations in math.

We know that;

There are 360 employees in total and that they are evenly distributed along this plot. Therefore, we can divide 360 by the width of this plot to find how many employees are represented by one unit on this plot. The width of this plot is 58 - 34 = 24 units.

So, 360 / 24 = 15

This means that for every unit on this plot, there are 15 employees who took a break with that duration.

Now we can multiply this number by the width of the box to find how many employees took a break between 37 and 41 minutes. The width of the box is 41 - 37 = 4 units. So,

15 * 4 = 60

This means that there are 60 employees who took a break that lasted between 37 and 41 minutes.

Therefore, by the unitary method the answer will be 60 employees

The following refers to a purchase of a machine by a company on January 1, 2021:

Salvage Value: $7,500

Life: 6 years

Desired Rate of Return 4%

Interest Compounded: semi-annually

Maximum amount the company can pay $32,348



What is the semi-annual net cash flow the company must achieve in order for the purchase to be made?

Answers

The semi-annual net cash flow that the company must achieve in order for the purchase to be made is $5041.

How to calculate the cash flow?

Maximum amount that can be invested = $32348.

Less: Present value of salvage value = $5927

Present value of cash inflow = $32348 - $5927 = $26421.

Net cash flow will be:

= $26421 / PV factor

= $26421/5.242

= $5041

In conclusion, the correct option is $5041.
