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.)

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%.

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.

The probability of finding a green ball is given by

Total number of balls in the bag=6+8+3=17 balls

Therefore, the probability of drawing a green ball from the bag containing 17 balls is 6/17.

To find the greatest number from the given options, convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

6.98 becomes 698/100

9.2 becomes 92/10

The least common denominator for the denominators of 7, 100 and 10 is 700. Now we can multiply each fraction with 700 as follows:

3/7*700=300

698/100*700=4886

10/7*700=1000

92/10*700=6440

In order from the smallest to largest, we organize the number set as follows:

3/7, 10/7, 6.98, 9.2.

Thus, 9.2 is the greatest of all.

A. A=w(2w+1)

Explanation

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula:

A=length×width

Given that the length is one more than twice the width, we can express it as:

Length=2w+1

The width is simply w.

Now, substituting these into the area formula:

A=w(2w+1)

Thus, the correct answer is:

A=w(2w+1)

We are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the radiologic program using the information provided on the pie chart.

If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the radiologic program, we set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator.

Total percent in the pie chart adds to 100%, which equals 1200 students. Then, 21% will represent

We solve the value of x by cross-multiplying the equation above.

Therefore, 252 students will enroll for a radiologic program.

We are asked to determine Japheth’s uncle’s age relating to Japheth’s age.

First, express Japheth’s uncle’s age in terms of Japheth’s age as follows

Japheth’s age=k

Japheth’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-10.

Thus, the relationship between Japheth’s uncle’s age to that of Japheth is u=3k-10.

To find the cheapest option, we find the amount the consume will spend for each option given.:

• 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $16+$5= $21
• 3 Packs of Orange will cost $16+$12=$28
• 2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($15)+$7=$37
• 5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($7)=$35

From the above evaluation, the cheapest option will cost the consumer $21. Thus, buying 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will be cheaper to purchase compared to other options.

We use the calculator to find the positive square root of 19, which is then multiplied by 3.

Using the calculator,

Multiplying the square root above with 3 becomes

The approximate value of 3 times the square root of 19 is 13.1.

Based on the given scenario, the outcome of measuring the daily dollar rate is the decline in investment, stock prices, and forex exchange. The three outcomes are dependent variables while the dollar rate is the independent variable.
