Which of the following is the decimal equivalent of 9/26?

To find the area of the room, we form an equation of find an equation relating the length and width of the rectangle. If we let the width of the room to be w, then

Width of the rectangle= w

Length of rectangle=(w+8)

Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(w+8)*w

A=w(w+8)

Thus, the area of the rectangular room is w(w+8).

The final price of the stock on Thursday can be found by finding the price on the previous day taking into account the price changes as follows.

The price of the stock on Monday was $33.65

On Tuesday the price of the stock went up by $1.23 from Monday’s price. Then, Tuesday’s price was $(33.65+1.23)=$34.88

The price of the stock on Wednesday decreased by $0.97 from Tuesday’s price. The price on Wednesday became $(34.88-0.97)=$33.91

Thursday’s price increased by $2.75 from Wednesday’s price, which was $(33.91+2.75)=$36.66

Therefore, the final price of the stock on Thursday was $36.66.

To determine the correct coordinates of the point shown on the graph, follow these steps:

1. Identify the x-coordinate: Count the number of units the point is to the right or left of the y-axis. The point is at 5 on the x-axis.
2. Identify the y-coordinate: Count the number of units the point is above or below the x-axis. The point is at -8 on the y-axis.
3. The correct coordinates are (5, -8).

Looking at the answer choices:

• A. (5, -8) → Correct
• B. (-5, 8) → Incorrect
• C. (-8, 5) → Incorrect
• D. (8, -5) → Incorrect

Final Answer:

A. (5, -8)

The scatter plot showing the relationship between the number of absences in a semester and students’ final exam scores. The trend shows that as absences increase, exam scores decrease.

This represents a Negative Correlation because:

• When one variable (absences) increases, the other variable (exam score) decreases.
• The points on the scatter plot trend downward from left to right.

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.

A histogram depicts the frequency of a one variable over the other while a bar graph is used to compare two variables with vertical axis representing the heights. Therefore, a histogram will be used to represent percent of the number of students reading after 9.

 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.

To round 24.375 kg to the nearest tenth (0.1 place), follow these steps:

1. Identify the tenth place in 24.375:
   • Tenth place: 3 (24.375)
   • Hundredths place: 7 (the next digit after the hundredths place)
2. Apply rounding rules:
   • If the hundredths place is 5 or greater, round up the tenth place.
   • Since 7 is in the hundredths place, round 24.3 up to 24.4.

The range of a data set is calculated as:

Range=MaximumValue−MinimumValue

From the given bar graph:

• The minimum number of goals scored is 0.
• The maximum number of goals scored is 5.

Thus, the range is:

5−0=5

 In this problem, we need to compare the number of dimes to quarters.

If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 6p

Number of nickels in the bottle = 2p

Number of dimes in the bottle =5(2p)=10p

Now relating dimes to nickels, we have

Thus, there are 5 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.
