A person weighed themselves at 180 lb. Three months later they weighed themselves at 160 lb. Which of the following is the percent of weight the person lost over 3 months? (Round to the nearest percent.)

We are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program using the percentages in the pie chart.

If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program, we can set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator. The whole pie chart represents 100%, which is 800 students. Then, 19% will represent

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

So, 152 students will enroll for a respiratory care program.

We required to find the units of finding the weight of a spoon. The mass is measured in kilogram and grams. Kilograms are used to measure the mass of heavier objects while grams for small and lighter objects.

Thus, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a spoon.

Step 1: Determine the remaining balance

The total cost of the television is $1,570, and the consumer made a $400 down payment.

Remainingbalance=1,570−400=1,170

Step 2: Calculate the number of months

The consumer pays $100 per month, so:

Months=1,170/100=11.7

Since the consumer cannot make a fraction of a payment, they will need 12 months to fully pay off the television.

The probability of an event is determined by the relation

Finding the probability of drawing the red ball, we need to find the total number of balls in the bag.

Total number of balls in the bag=5+4+3=12 balls

The probability of drawing a red ball from the bag is 1/3.

We are asked to convert kg to pounds using the given relation. Letting x to represent the lb we are looking for.

Nest, we set the proportion with kg in the numerator and lb on the denominator as follows.

We find the value of x by cross-multiplication

The value of x is 110 lb.

To find the cost-effective option, we need to find how much the consumer will spend for the given options:

2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $18+$5= $23

3 Packs of Orange will cost $18+$10=$28

2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($12)+$5=$29

5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($5)=$25

From the above evaluation, the consumer will spend $23 for a cost effective package of soft drinks. Thus, 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will be cheaper to purchase compared to other options.

We need to find the value of x from the given equation. First, we move the value of 10 to the right-hand side of the equation.

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

,   a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=12, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition becomes

Solving for x

The second condition becomes

Solving for x

Then, the value of x is -1 or 2.

To find the median, we arrange the following numbers in data set from the smallest to the largest as follows.

-3, -2, 0, 5, 10

From the above the data set, the median falls in the third position. Thus, 0 is the median for the given data set.

We use the relation 1 L=1000 mL to convert 0.5 L to mL as follows.

Thus, 0.5 L is 500 mL.

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

-0.7 becomes 7/10

-1.3 becomes 13/10

Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 3 and 10 is 30. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.

-2/3*30=-20

-7/10*30=-70

-13/10*30=-39

-4/3*30=-40

Comparing the obtained values from above, -20 is the greatest followed by -39, -40, -70 in that order. The fraction -2/3 gave a value of -20, which was the greatest value. Thus, -2/3 is the greatest value from the given option.
