A sweater that normally sells for $78 is marked 15% off. Which of the following estimates the sale price of the sweater?
$12
$66
$22
$69
Correct Answer : B
we are to find the selling price of the sweater from the marked price and the discount. The marked price is given as
Discount=mark off rate*original price
Discount=15%*$78
Convert 15% into a fraction, which become 15/100=0.15. Then
Discount=0.15*$78=$11.70
The selling price of the sweater will be the original price less the discount or mark off value. Then,

Thus, the approximate selling price of the sweater is $66.

Explanation
Histograms are used to present frequency of data of one variable over the other. On the other hand, a bar graph is used to compare the two variables with the rectangles not touching one another as in histograms. Scatter plots are used to show the correlations between two variables. In this case, the teacher will be able to use scatter plot to establish the correlation between test scores and the subjects.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Let's calculate the number of each color of gumball:
- Red: 20% of 120 → 0.2×120=24
- Orange: 30% of 120 → 0.3×120=36
- Yellow: 5% of 120 → 0.05×120=6
- Green: 10% of 120 → 0.1×120=12
- Blue: The remaining percentage: 100%−(20%+30%+5%+10%) = 100%−65% =35%
- So, 0.35×120=42 blue gumballs.
Now, we find how many more blue gumballs there are than yellow:
42−6=36

Explanation
correlations fall into positive, negative, and no correlation. A positive correlation shows that an increase in one variable increase results in an increase on the other variable increases as shown.

A negative correlation scatter plot shows that an increase in one variable results in a decrease on the other one.

The no-correlation scatter plot demonstrates that there is no response between variables. A change in one variable has no effect on the other variable.

Looking at the provided scatter plot, the heights of the students does not have any relationship on the students’ scores. Thus, the type of correlation is no correlation.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Before we compare the values of the options, we convert the decimals to fractions.
5.4 becomes 54/10
6.25 becomes 625/100
Thus, the set of fractions is 11/2, 54/10, 13/3, 625/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.
11/2*300=1650
54/10*300=1620
13/3*300=1300
625/100*300=1875
From the above, 1875 is the greatest value which corresponds to 6.25. Therefore, 6.25 is the greatest value of all the choices given.
