A person weighed themselves at 160 lb. Three months later they weighed themselves at 130 lb. Which of the following is the percent of weight the person lost over 3 months? (Round to the nearest percent.)
20%
13%
19%
29%
Correct Answer : C
the percentage change in weight is found by calculating change in weight over original multiplied by 100%.
First, find the change in weight over the 3 months
Change in weight lost= 1860-130=30 lb
Thus

The percent change in weight is 19% to the nearest whole number.

Explanation
we are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the nursing program using the percentages in the pie chart.
If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the nursing program, we set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator.
Total percent in the pie chart is 100%, which equals 800 students. Then, 42% will represent

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

Therefore, 336 students will enroll for a nursing program.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The range is a simple measure of statistical dispersion that shows the spread between the highest and lowest values in a data set.
Formula for Range:
Range=MaximumValue−MinimumValue
Example Calculation:
From the given box plot:
Identify the maximum value: 92
- Identify the minimum value: 12
- Subtract the minimum from the maximum: 92−12=80
Thus, the range of this data set is 80.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.
First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows
[3(2+6*4)]
We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 6*4=24. The expression becomes
[3(2+24)]
Then, we conduct the addition of 2+24=26. Then, the expression becomes
[3(26)]=3*26=78
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.
Thus, the expression is reduced into
\(\frac{[3(2+6\ast4)]}{(26\div2)}=\frac{78}{13}=6\)
The expression reduces into 6.
Correct Answer is D

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

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.

Cross-multiply to find the value of x.



Converting 189/10 to a mixed fraction is 18 9/10. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 18 9/10 gallons of water.
