A math teacher obtained the following scores from a class of 45 students. Which of the following is the best way to display the frequency of each day of the week?

Test score	50-59	60-69	70-79	80-89	90-99
Number of students	10	4	9	20	2

 

 

A ratio is of the form a : b but can also be converted to a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. Besides, to in ration means per in fraction form.

In the class of 40 students, 22 are girls and 18 are boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:

The above fraction can be reduced further since 2 is a common factor in both 22 and 18. Thus

In ratio form, girls: boys=11:9

Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 40 students is 11 to 9.

In order for the teacher to better visualize the test performance for his class, he needs to present the mark distribution in chart form. A better chart visualizer is the histogram, which will show the frequency of marks against range of test scores. A bar graph will not be used because the rectangles need to touch one another.

In a bar graph, the rectangles do not touch each other. Therefore, it will not be a good chart visualizer.

To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.

First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is three times width. Mathematically, this means

Length=3*width=3*x=3x

Again, the length is 4 less than 3 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:

Length =3x-4

This is the required equation.

We need to find the radius of the circle from the given value of area. Then, the radius of the circle will be used to find the circumference of the circle.

The first step is to find the radius, r of the circle as

Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is \(9\pi\ in\ ^2\)is 6 in.

We need to form a mathematical expression from the given word problem.

Let the unknown number be x.

Thrice a number is three times = 3x

Twelve less than thrice a number = 3x-12

Thus, the mathematical expression from the word problem is 3x-12

An independent variable is a change that when modified brings a change in other variables. In this case, the person increases his climbing rate, calories burned, distance traveled and energy used increases. Therefore, the walking speed is the independent variable while other variables are dependent.

We are required to find the percent equivalent of the given fraction.

We multiply 7/8 by 100 to convert it to percent. You convert fraction to percent.

Thus 7/8 is equal to 87.5%.

Based rainfall falling for the first 5 months, a bar graph will give a great display for the farmer to decide when start planting. The horizontal scale will represent months of the year and vertical scale will present the amount of rainfall falling.

From the given data, we can draw the following triangle by letting the unknown length to be p.

We apply the Pythagoras theorem, the value of p:

The unknown length of the triangle is about 21.4 feet.

In the given problem, we use the calculator to evaluate the product 1.9 * 0.75 = 1.425
