A person weighed themselves at 153 lb. Five months later they weighed themselves at 120 lb. Which of the following is the percent of weight the person lost over 5 months? (Round to the nearest percent.)

Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. To convert a percent to decimal form, divide the value by 100.

The decimal form of 98.2% is 0.982.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows

(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})

If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

Cross-multiply to find the value of x.

(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)

(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)

Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.

A dependent variable is one that depends on the independent variable. An independent variable is one that when changed result in a change of another variable.

In this problem, if we change the brand of laptop, tax rate, and memory size, the price of the laptop changes. Thus, the cost of the laptop is the dependent variable.

The percentage change in weight is found in three steps below:

Absolute change in weight=final weight-initial weight

Absolute change in weight=(left|120-153 ight|=left|-33 ight|=33)

Relative change in weight=(frac{absolute change}{initial weight}=frac{33}{153}=0.216)

Percent change=relative change * 100%

Percent change=0.216*100%=21.6%

The percent change in weight lost is 21.6 %, which is about 22%.

C organizes the collection correctly.

To convert millilitres (mL) to litres (L), we use the fact that:

1 L=1000 mL

So, to convert 2,500 mL to litres:

=2.5 L

Thus, the patient needs 2.5 litres of saline.

The correct answer is C. 2.5 L.

The volume V of a rectangular box can be calculated using the formula:

V=length×width×height

Given:

• Length = 8 metres
• Width = 5 metres
• Height = 3 metres

Now, calculate the volume:

V=8 m×5 m×3 m=120 m3

Thus, the volume of the box is 120 cubic metres.

The correct answer is B. 120 m³.

To find the amount of vanilla in mL, use dimensional analysis of the units of measurements.

Two ways to convert between teaspoon and mL are:

Since we are required to find the amount in mL, we use a cionverstioon that will result in mL. Inspecting the above options, we use the second option and set up an equation in way the unwanted units cancel out and leave the wanted unit we are looking for. Then,

Thus, a recipe of 3 teaspoons equals 14.79 mL.

We need to find the radius of the circle in order to find circumference of the circle. If we let r to be radius of the circle, then

Substituting 169π in place of area

Dividing both sides by pi and taking square root on both sides yields

The radius of the circle from the given area is 13 in. and the circumference of the circle is given by the relation:

The polling organization has an average ratio of 2 answered calls for every 15 attempted calls. To find the expected number of answered calls for 150 attempted calls, we can set up a proportion based on this ratio.

Step 1: Set up the proportion

The ratio of answered calls to attempted calls is:

=

Where x is the number of expected answered calls for 150 attempted calls.

Step 2: Solve for x

Cross-multiply to solve for x:

2×150=15×x

300=15x

X =

x = 20

Conclusion:

The expected number of answered calls for 150 attempted calls is 20 calls.

The correct answer is C. 20 calls.
