[tex]\frac{1}{4}x + 2 = -3 + \frac{1}{2} x[/tex]
First, we will take [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]x to the right hand side of the equation, and -3 to the left hand side. In doing so, their signs will change (that is, they will be subtracted from the side that they are moved to).
2 -(-3) = [tex]\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{4} x[/tex]
2 + 3 = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]x
[tex]\frac{1}{4} x = 5[/tex]
Now, we will multiply both sides by 4, so as to find x.
[tex]\frac{1}{4} x[/tex] x 4 = 5 x 4
x = 20
Therefore, x = 20.
The sale price of ground beef at a local grocery store is $1.49 for the first pound and $1.09 for each additional pound. Which function rule shows how the cost of ground beef, y depends on the number of pounds, x?
Answer:
y=1.09x+0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the price of beef stays the same for every pound of beef (the first pound is also $1.09)
Then, the equation would be, it y was the cost, and x was pounds:
y=1.09x
But, the price of beef is not the same for the first pound.
The first pound costs an extra 1.49-1.09=0.4 dollars a pound, so we will add that to the equation.
y=1.09x+0.4
A local charity organization held an event to celebrate its work for the past five years. A local newspaper reporter who attended the event asked 75 of the attendees about their contributions. The reporter computed the mean amount of money raised by the 75 attendees to be $18,500. In an article published by the local newspaper, the reporter was quoted as stating, "The members of the charity organization were successful in raising money for their cause. Last year, they raised a mean amount of $18,500!"
Part A: What is a statistical advantage of using the median of the reported amounts, rather than the mean, as the estimate of the typical amount raised? (4 points)
Part B: The newspaper editor felt the individuals who attended the event may be different from the organization as a whole. A more detailed survey of the members was planned to determine a better estimate of the amount of money raised. The staff developed two methods based on the available funds to carry out the survey.
Method 1: Send out an e-mail to all 10,530 members of the organization and ask them to complete an online form. The staff estimates at least 2,000 members will respond.
Method 2: Select a simple random sample of members of the organization and contact the selected members directly by phone. Follow up to ensure all responses are obtained. Because method 2 requires more time than method 1, the staff estimates that only 1,000 members of the organization can be contacted using method 2.
Which of the two methods would you select for estimating the average yearly amount raised by all 10,530 members of the charity organization? Explain your reasoning by comparing the two methods and by describing the effect of each method on the estimate.
Answer:
Part A. The statistical advantage of using the median is that the median is less effected by skewed data and outliers.
Part B. I would select method two because method one has a non-response bias and the sample individuals are not selected at random.
Step-by-step explanation:
Higher values pull averages up where medians just select the middle value and aren't necessarily pulled by outliers.
Non response biases happen when the individuals chosen choose not to answer or can volunteer to answer.
Sending out emails to everyone at the org is not choosing them at random.
A statistical advantage of using the median instead of the mean as the estimate of the typical amount raised is that the median is less sensitive to extreme values or outliers.
Method 1 would be the better choice for estimating the average yearly amount raised by all 10,530 members of the charity organization
What is a median?It is the middle value of the given set of numbers after arranging the given set of numbers in order.
We have,
Part A:
A statistical advantage of using the median instead of the mean as the estimate of the typical amount raised is that the median is less sensitive to extreme values or outliers.
In this case,
If there were a few attendees who contributed a very large amount of money, it would increase the mean and make it an overestimate of the typical amount raised.
However, the median would not be affected by the outliers, and it would give a better estimate of the typical amount raised by the majority of the attendees.
Part B:
Method 1 would be a better choice for estimating the average yearly amount raised by all 10,530 members of the charity organization.
This is because it would have a larger sample size than method 2, which would make the estimate more precise and reduce the sampling error.
Additionally,
Method 1 would include a broader range of members, including those who may not have attended the event or who may have contributed in other ways besides donating money.
Method 2, on the other hand, would have a smaller sample size and would only include a random subset of the organization's members, which could lead to sampling bias if the selected members are not representative of the larger population.
Furthermore, the follow-up required by method 2 would make it more time-consuming and potentially less cost-effective than method 1.
Thus,
Method 1 would be the better choice for estimating the average yearly amount raised by all 10,530 members of the charity organization because it would have a larger sample size, include a broader range of members, and be more cost-effective than method 2.

The bar graph shows the results of rolling a number cube (a die) 50 times. What is the probability of rolling an odd number? How does this compare with the theoretical probability of rolling an odd number?
Experimental Probability. Theoretical Probability
P(odd) = % P(odd) = %
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Experimental means what actually happened
P(odd) = (number of 1 + number of 3 + number of 5) / total
= (10+8+8) / 50
= 26/50
= 13/25 = 52%
Theoretical means what we expect to happen
P (odd) = (number of 1 + number of 3 + number of 5) / total
=(1+1+1)/6
=1/2 = 50%
We rolled an odd just a little more than the expected amount of times

Angela works 18 hours a week for 12 weeks in the summer at the local swimming pool as a life guard. she earns $13 per hour. her employer takes 15 percent out of her check for federal income tax withholding and 6.2 percent for social security and 1.45 percent for medicare. she will receive 12 paychecks, one for each week she works. calculate angela’s weekly gross pay: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for federal income tax withholding: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for social security taxes: calculate the amount taken out of angela’s check for medicare taxes: calculate angela’s net paycheck using the calculations above: calculate angela’s total gross pay for all 12 weeks: calculate angela’s total net pay for all 12 weeks:
Answer:
Gross pay per week = $234
Federal income tax = $421.2
Social security = $174.96
Medicare =$40.71
net pay per week = $181
Total gross pay = $2,808
Total net pay = $2172
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to calculate Angela gross income per week:
18 hours per week x $13 per hour = $234 per week (gross)
234 x 12 =2,808
Amount taken ; multiply weekly gross pay by each percentage discount in decimal form (divided by 100)
Federal income tax = 234 x (15/100) = $35.1 (in 12 weeks = 35.1 x 12 = $421.2)
Social security = 234 x (6.2/100)= $14.508 (in 12 weeks = 14.5 x 12 = $174.96)
Medicare = 234 x (1.45/100)=$3.393 (in 12 weeks = 3.39x 12 = $40.71)
Total amount taken (per week)= 35.1+14.508+3.393=$53.001
Net pay per week = 234-53 = $181
For the total gross pay we have to multiply the weekly gross pay by the number of weeks (12)
Total gross pay = 234 x 12 =$2,808
Total net pay = 181 x 12 = 181 per week x 12 = $2172
The total number of subsets of a set A is 120 more than the total number of subsets of set B. The number of elements in the two sets respectively are
(A) 3, 7 (B) 4, 8 (C) 8, 4 (D) 7, 3
Answer:
(D) 7, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If a set has 'n' elements, the total number of subsets is (2^n) - 1
So if set A has more subsets than set B, it needs to have more elements, so option (A) and (B) can't be correct.
So, checking option (C), we have:
Set A: number of subsets = 2^8 - 1 = 255
Set A: number of subsets = 2^4 - 1 = 15
Difference: 255 - 15 = 240
The difference is not 120, so this is not the correct option
Option (D):
Set A: number of subsets = 2^7 - 1 = 127
Set A: number of subsets = 2^3 - 1 = 7
Difference: 127 - 7 = 120
Correct option: (D)

Students measure objects in their desks and the data are shown in the line plot below. If the objects are to be connected end to end,what would be the total length?
This question is incomplete because it lacks the diagram of the line plot. Find attached to the answer, the diagram of the scatter plot.
Answer:
35/8 inches or 4 3/8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reading the line plot, the number of objects is plotted vertically while the length of the object is arranged horizontally on the line plot.
The total length is calculated as: summation of the (Number of objects × Length of the objects)
= [(1/8 ×0) + (1/4×0) + (3/8 × 2) + (1/2 ×3) + (5/8 × 1) + (3/4 × 2) +(7/8 × 0)] inches
=[ 0 + 0 + 3/4 + 3/2 + 5/8 + 3/2 + 0] inches
= 35/8 inches or 4 3/8 inches.
Therefore, the total length of the objects if they are connect end to end is 35/8 inches or 4 3/8 inches.

4/7 of the students in a classroom are boys. If there are twelve girls in the class, how many total students are there?
Answer:
28 students total.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use a ratio:
boys : girls
4 : 3
16 : 12
To find the total, we need to add 16 and 12 which equals 28
Answer:
28 students
Step-by-step explanation:
If 4/7 of the students are boys,
then 1- 4/7 = girls
7/7 -4/7 = 3/7
total students *3/7 = girls
total students * 3/7 = 12
Multiply each side by 7/3
total students * 3/7 *7/3 = 12*7/3
total students = 28
every natural number is a whole number why?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
0 is whole number and 1 is natural number they both end in infinity. So there is only 0 in whole number but not in natural number.thats why every natural number is whole number
Natural numbers are the counting
numbers and they are always positive.
The set of natural numbers begin at 1 and go on indefinitely.
The natural numbers look like {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...}.
When we include 0 in the set of natural numbers, the new set,
{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...} is called the set of whole numbers.
Notice that all natural numbers are
included within the set of whole numbers.
We can represent the relationship between these
two sets of numbers using a diagram.
The bigger circle below represents the set of whole numbers
and all natural numbers will appear within the set of whole numbers.
In summary, natural numbers are the same as whole numbers except for the fact that whole numbers include 0.

Answer:
Circumference = 2 x 3.14 x radius = 27 (in)
=> radius = 27/(2 x 3.14) = 4.3 (in)
=> Area = 3.14 x radius^2 = 3.14 x 4.3^2 = 58.1 (in2)
Answer:
58 inches^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a circle is [tex]\pi *radius^{2}[/tex]
To work out the area of this circle you would first need to divide the circumference of 27 by pi, this gives you 8.594. This is because the formula for the circumference is: [tex]\pi *diameter\\[/tex] and so by dividing the circumference by pi we are isolating the value of the diameter.
Then now that we have worked out the diameter we can now begin to work out the area, however in order to work out the area we must work out the radius. You can do this by dividing the diameter by 2, which gives you 4.297.
Then to work out the area you would multiply pi by the radius of 4.297 squared, this gives you 58.01 [tex]inches^{2}[/tex].
The next step is to round it to the nearest whole number, this gives you 58.
1) Divide 27 by pi.
[tex]27/\pi =8.594[/tex]
2) Divide 8.594 by 2.
[tex]8.594/2=4.297[/tex]
3) Multiply pi by 4.297 squared.
[tex]\pi *4.297^{2} =58.01[/tex]
4) Round to the nearest whole number.
