Bryan plays on the high school basketball team. In his first ten games he scored 12, 14, 8, 9, 8, 16, 8, 13, 22, and 19 points. Choose and calculate the best measure of central tendency to represent Bryan's scoring over the first ten games. Justify your choice.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The best tendency is the "middle" or "most common" value, so basically it's either the mean or the mode- in this case we use the mode and we can see 12,14,8,9,8, 13, 22 ,19 so 8,8,9,12,13,14,18,22 ; the answer is 13

Since there are 5,280 feet in one mile and 3.3 feet in one meter, how many meters per second are equivalent to 60 miles per hour?a.) 26 (2)/(3) meters per second
b.) 198 meters per second
c.) 266 (2)/(3 (2)/(3) ) meters per second
d.) 290 (2)/(5)
please explain.

Answers

Given:
1 mile = 5280 feet
1 meter = 3.3 feet

convert 60 miles per hour to meters per second

60 miles to meters

60 miles x 5280ft x 1meter = (60*5280m)/3.3 = 316800m/3.3
                  1 mile    3.3ft
= 96,000 meters

1 hour to seconds

1 hour x 60 minutes x 60 seconds =   1 * 60 * 60sec = 3600 seconds 
                1 hour            1 minute

unit rate: meters per second

96000 meters ÷ 3600 seconds = 26 2400/3600 
simplify 26 2400/3600 ⇒ 26 2/3 meters per second

2400 ÷ 1200 = 2
3600 ÷ 1200 = 3

126 percent as a fraction

Answers

Hello There!

126% as a fraction would be 1 (13)/(50)

126% = (126)/(100)

126 ÷ 100 = 1.26

(1.26)/(1) x (100)/(100) = (126)/(100)

Lana's family is planning a rectangular garden. They make a scale diagram of the garden using a scale of 1 inch to 0.5 meter. If the length of the scale diagram is 24 inches, and its width is 16 inches, what is the perimeter of the actual garden? 20 meters 40 meters 80 meters 160 meters. Please help me

Answers

Total inches: 24 x 2 + 16 x 2

= 48 + 32 = 80 inches

80 in x 0.5 = 40m

Therefore, answer is 40 metres

Answer:

the answer is 40 meters

Irene just drank a cup of coffee to help her stay awake. The coffee had 120 milligrams of caffeine in it. If her body processes 10% of the caffeine every hour, how much will be left in 10 hours? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Hi there!

For this, we need to use an exponential function. This is because it constantly takes 10% of what is left, not just 10% of the total. The formula for an exponential function:

a\cdot b^x

Where a is the original value, b is the rate of change, and x is the time. We know the original value is 120 milligrams. The rate of change is 90%, as after every hour there is 90% of what there was previously remaining. Finally, we are looking for how much is remaining after 10 hours, so 10 is the time.

Plugging this all in, we get:

120\cdot .9^(10)

Now, solving:

120\cdot 0.34867

41.8404

Thus, after rounding, we get that 41.8 milligrams of caffeine will be left in 10 hours.

Hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have additional questions about this problem.

fifteen percent of the workers earn minimum wage. if 24 workers earn minimum wage. how many total workers?

Answers

Given:
15 percent of the workers earn minimum wage
24 workers earn minimum wage

Find the total number of workers.

15% is the percentage of the part of a whole.
24 is the value of the part.

To get the value of the whole, we divide the part by its percentage

24 ÷ 15% = 160

There are a total of 160 workers.
