Find the mean number of merits received by the girls and boys.
Who did better on average?

Answers

Answer:

1. Mean merit for girls = 3.08

2. Mean merit for boys = 3.03

3. The girls did better.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Marit >>> Girls >>> Boys

0 >>>>>> 5 >>>>>>> 4

1 >>>>>> 6 >>>>>>> 6

2 >>>>>> 11 >>>>>> 11

3 >>>>>> 15 >>>>>> 13

4 >>>>>> 14 >>>>>> 13

5 >>>>>> 13 >>>>>> 9

6 >>>>>> 1 >>>>>>> 2

1. Determination of the mean number of merit for girls.

Summation of merit of girls (ΣMG) = (0×5) + (1×6) + (2×11) + (3×15) + (4×14) + (5×13) + (6×1)

= 0 + 6 + 22 + 45 + 56 + 65 + 6

= 200

Summation of girls (ΣG) = 5 + 6 + 11 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 1

= 65

Mean merit for girls =?

Mean = ΣMG / ΣG

Mean = 200 / 65

Mean merit for girls = 3.08

2. Determination of the mean number of merit for boys.

Summation of merit of boys (ΣMB) = (0×4) + (1×6) + (2×11) + (3×13) + (4×13) + (5×9) + (6×2)

= 0 + 6 + 22 + 39 + 52 + 45 + 12

= 176

Summation of boys (ΣB) = 4 + 6 + 11 + 13 + 13 + 9 + 2

= 58

Mean merit for boys =?

Mean = ΣMB / ΣB

Mean = 176 / 58

Mean merit for boys = 3.03

3. Determination of who did better.

Mean merit for girls = 3.08

Mean merit for boys = 3.03

We can see from the data above that the mean merit for girls (i.e 3.08) is greater than that of boys (i.e 3.03). Therefore, the girls did better than the boys

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular field is 90 meters wide and 125 meters long.
Give the length and width of another rectangular field that has the same perimeter but a larger area.

Answers

Answer:

The length and the width of another rectangle are 115 meters and 100 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ A rectangular field is 90 meters wide and 125 meters long

∴ The length = 125 m

∴ The width = 90 m

The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

→ Substitute the value of the length and the width in the rule

∴ The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(125 + 90)

The perimeter of the rectangle = 430 m

The area of the rectangle = length × width

→ Substitute the value of the length and the width in the rule

∴ The area of the rectangle = 125 x 90

The area of the rectangle = 11250 m²

We need to find another rectangle with the same perimeter but larger in area, to do that make the length and width closed in values

∵ The length = 125 m and the width = 90 m

→ Subtract 10 from the length and add it to the width

The new length = 125 - 10 = 115 m

The new width = 90 + 10 = 100 m

→ Find the perimeter and the area of the new rectangle

∵ The perimeter of the new rectangle = 2(115 + 100)

The perimeter of the new rectangle = 430 m ⇒ the same perimeter

∵ The area of the new rectangle = 115 × 100

The area of the new rectangle = 11500 m² ⇒ larger than the original area

The length and the width of another rectangle are 115 m and 100 m

Which ratio is equivalent to 9 : 180?
A. 5 : 200
B. 12 : 240
C. 10 : 400
D. 8 : 560

Answers

Answer: B. 12 : 240

Explanation: 180 divided by 9 = 20, meaning dividing the number on the right side of the ratio for each option above by 20, will find you the answer if you get 20.

The equivalent ratio of 9:180 is 12:240.

9:189 = 1/20 = 1:20

12:240 = 12/240 = 1/20

Option B is the correct answer.

What is a ratio?

The ratio shows how many times one value is contained in another value.

Example:

There are 3 apples and 2 oranges in a basket.

The ratio of apples to oranges is 3:2 or 3/2.

We have,

9 : 180

We will simplify it into its simplest form.

180 = 9 x 20

Now,

9 : 180

This can be written as,

= 9 / 180

= 9 / (9 x 20)

= 1/20

= 1:20

Now,

A.

5:200

= 5/200

Write along with its common factor.

= 5 / (5 x 40)

= 1/40

= 1:40

B.

12:240

= 12 / 240

Write along with its common factor.

= 12 / (12 x 20)

= 1/ 20

= 1:20

C.

10:400

= 10/400

Write along with its common factor.

= 10/(10 x 40)

= 1/40

= 1:40

D.

8:560

= 8/560

Write along with its common factor.

= 8/(8 x 70)

= 1/70

= 1:70

Thus,

The equivalent ratio of 9:180 is 12:240.

9:189 = 1/20 = 1:20

12:240 = 12/240 = 1/20

Option B is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

For two night in the hotel, you would pay $333 (including tax)

Step-by-step explanation:

Without tax, the price for 2 nights would be $150 times 2. So the price without tax would be....

$150 x 2 = $300

But then we have to be aware of 11% tax so we would multiply the price for two nights by 1.11 and get...

$300 x 1.11 = $333

Answer:

$333

150 x 2 = 300

Kathryn has been offered a job to paint the outside of a barn. If one gallon costs $40 and covers 400 square feet. How much will it cost to paint the barn with one coat?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete but I would solve a similar question:

Alexis needs to paint the four exterior walls of a large rectangular barn. The length of the barn is 80 feet, the width is 50 feet, and the height is 30 feet. The paint costs $28 per gallon, and each gallon covers 420 square feet. How much will it cost Alexis to paint the barn? Explain your work.

Solution:

The barn has four walls. Let the four walls be labeled as w, x, y and z.

The area of wall w = 80 feet * 30 feet = 2400 feet²

The area of wall x = 50 feet * 30 feet = 1500 feet²

The area of wall y = 80 feet * 30 feet = 2400 feet²

The area of wall z = 50 feet * 30 feet = 1500 feet²

The total area of the four walls = area of wall w + area of wall x + area of wall y + area of wall z

The total area of the four walls = 2400 + 1500 + 2400 + 1500 = 7800 ft²

Given that each gallon of paint can cover 420 feet². Therefore number of gallon needed is:

number of gallon needed = 7800 ft² ÷ 420 ft² per gallon = 18.57

Since the gallon must be a whole number and 18 gallons wont be enough, therefore number of gallon needed is 19 gallons.

Cost of painting = 19 gallons * $28 per gallon = $532

The distance between New Orleans and Houston is 353 miles. At 12:20 PM, a bus
leaves Houston for New Orleans at a speed of 60 mph. Forty-five minutes later, a
motorcycle leaves New Orleans for Houston at a speed of 72 mph. At what time will
the bus and the motorcycle pass each other if neither stops nor changes speed?

Answers

Answer:

3:25 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between New Orleans and Houston is : 353 miles

Departure time of the bus : 12:20 pm

Speed of the bus: 60 mph

After 45 minutes, the bus will be at a distance of : 45/60 * 60 = 45 miles

Distance remaining to cover = 353-45 = 308 miles

Speed of the motorcycle = 72 mph

Relative speed = 60 + 72 = 132 mph

Time the two will meet = 308 / 132 =  7/3 hrs

7/3 hrs = 2 hrs  20 minutes

Time the two will meet is ;

12:20 pm + 45 minutes + 2 hrs 20 minutes

= 3:25 pm

Both the bus and the motorcycle are driving opposite to each other.

From the given data, the time at which both the bus and the motorcycle will pass each other is 3:25 PM

Given that:Distance between New Orleans and Houston = 353 miles.Bus leaves Houston for New Orleans at 12:20 PM.Speed of bus = 60 mphAfter 45 minutes, the motorcycle leaves New Orleans for Houston at 72 mph.To find:

The time at which both the motorcycle and the  bus will pass each other.

Calculations:

Let after t hour from the time when motorcycle starts, they both meet.

Then we have:

353 miles = 45 minute traveled by bus + distance traveled by bus in t hour + distance traveled by motorcycle in t time.

Since 45 minutes is three fourth of an hour, thus:

Distance traveled by bus in 45 minutes is calculated as:

[tex]D_{Bus}(45 \:\rm min) = 60 \times \dfrac{3}{4} \: \rm miles = 45 \: \rm miles[/tex]

Distance traveled by bus in t hours is:

[tex]D_{Bus}(t \: \rm hours) = 60 \times t \: \rm miles = 60t \: \rm miles[/tex]

Distance traveled by motorcycle in t hour is:

[tex]D_{motorcycle}(t \: \rm hours) = 72 \times t \: \rm miles = 72t \: \rm miles.[/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]353 = 60t + 72t + 45\\\\308= 132t\\\\t = \dfrac{308}{132}\\\\t= \dfrac{7}{3}\: \rm hours\\\\t=2 \: \rm hours + 20 \: \rm minutes[/tex]

Thus, time at which they meet was 12:20 PM + 45 minutes + 2 hours + 20 minutes = 3:25 PM
