The 6th graders at Mahone Middle School are raising money for a new flowerbed in front of the school. For every $10 raised by the students, a local business owner will match 50%. If the students raise $139, is it reasonable that they will have $240 after the money is matched?

Answers

Answer: no it is not reasonable
50%=50/100
so...
50/100*139/1=6950/100
so...
divide 6950 by 100 and get 69.5
so...
add 139 to 69.5 and you get 208.5

Vicki puts 10 books on a shelf. The 10 books take up 28 cm. What is the mean (average) thickness of her books? Can I have it worked out as well plz? I really need to understand it.

Answers

Average thickness of book = Total thickness/mo. of books
= 28 cm/ 10
= 2.8 cm
Thus, on average, each book has 2.8 cm thickness.

If the ten books are 28cm thick then the average thickness is 28 (the total thickness) divided by 10 (the number of books).

28cm divided by 10 is 2.8cm.

So the average thickness is 2.8cm!

What is 0.5733 to the nearest hundredths?

Answers

Hello,

0.5733 = 0.57

Bye :)

0.5733 to the nearest hundredth would be 0.57, here's why:
After a decimal it goes tenth, hundredth, thousandths, ect. So that means the second spot after the decimal is will be the last number. Now look at the thousandths place (3) behind the hundredth place (7), it is 4 or smaller so we will let it rest and the hundredth place will stay a 7.

Which of the following is not true about genes?They are passed down from your ancestors.

They contain instructions for your physiology and behavior.

Some people are born with an entirely new set of genes not seen in their parents.

Some parts of your genes can become different from your parents as you are forming.

Answers

The answer is C. Some people are born with an entirely new set of genes not seen in their parents. (This one is not true because we do see genes inherited/seen from our parents. For example, if our parents have brown eyes, we can have brown eyes, or same thing with hair, if our parents have brown hair, we can inherit/ be seen having brown hair just like them, we inherit genes similar to our parents because they made us, in turn, they gave us some of their features and genes.)
