If the trend below continues, which of the following is the best estimate of the average price of a home in 2016?

 

A teaspoon can approximately hold 5 mL.

Although the capacity of a teaspoon could be more or less, choice D remains the most correct answer as the other choices have amounts too much for a small teaspoon.

We are given that 1 teaspoon=4.93 mL, we can interpret it as:

Or

Since we are to find the amount in mL, we look for an option that will cancel teaspoon and remain with mL. The second option is the required conversion, and we proceed as follows:

Therefore, 2.5 teaspoons hold about 12.325 mL.

We need to find the length of the rectangle from the given area and width of the rectangle. Let L be length if the rectangle. Then,

Area of rectangle=Length*width

Substituting area=32 in2 and w=4 inches

32=L*4

32=4L

Divide both sides by 4

32/4=4L/4

8=L

The length of the rectangle is 8 inches.

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

Here we are required to find the area of the square of sides 3.1 m. The square is a four-sided figure with each side equal and opposite sides making 90 degrees.

Area of the square =side*side

Side=3.1 m

Area of the square =3.1 m *3.1 m=9.61 m2

Note: 3.1 + 3.1 = 6.2 which is a wrong answer.

we are asked to change 400 mg to g. We use the conversion 1g=1000mg, which we can write as:

So, 400 mg to g becomes

When dividing fractions, the division sign is changed into multiply sign and the first fraction is multiplied by the inverse of the second fraction.

Change division to multiply sign and find invers of 5/8. The inverse of a fraction is inverting the given fraction. The denominator becomes the numerator and the numerator becomes the denominator.

We use the properties of exponent with the same base to solve for above expression.

Multiplication of exponents with same base, we add the exponents

Division of exponents with same base, we subtract the exponents

Using these two properties, we can solve the expression:

Now we use the following properties:

y0 =1, and, thus

The mean is the total divided by the number of elements in the data set. From the given data set:

Total=30+29+28+30+24+12+26+33+25+23=260

Number of items, N=10

Mean=total/N=260/10=26

The mean is 26.

In the simple interest, we utilize the following formula to find the simple interest after a period of time in years.

I=P*r*t

I is the interest

P=Principal or initial deposit

r=rate

t=time in years

From the given problem, P=$600, r=6%=6/100=0.06, t=5 years. Then

I=$600*0.06*5=$180

After 5 years, Pat will earn an interest of $180.
