OpenStudy (anonymous):

sir im o very sorry i do history so o sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and not a sir

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyone please

@shamallamadingdong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[Error = \frac{ Measured - Actual }{ Actual }\times 100 \%\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please explain more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The measured height is 5.12 feet. The actual height is 6 feet. Put in above equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0k so -0.88

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-0.14666666666 is my answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You need to multiply by 100% to convert it into a percent error.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

14.67 %

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct. Well done. I neglected to say that the answer should be a positive number so you would need to take the absolute value. But you figured that out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok can you help with a few more cuz you rock!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure. Please post your questions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which unit rate is the lowest price per ounce? Choice A: 22 ounces of potato chips for $3.49 Choice B: 40 ounces of potato chips for $4.79 Choice A Choice B The unit rates are equal. The unit rates cannot be determined.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw you are so polite

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it choice B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im just guessing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks. You must calculate the price per ounce for both choices. "Price per ounce" means divide price by ounces. What do you get for price per ounce for A and for B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok for A) 0.15863636363 and for b) 0.11975

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Terrific. Choose which one is less and there's your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well done!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you mid helping with like 10 more other questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Maybe a couple more but then I'll need to go.

Which graph shows a proportional relationship between the number of hours of renting a canoe and the total amount spent to rent the canoe? A graph is shown. The values on the x axis are 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The values on the y axis are 0, 18, 36, 54, 72, and 90. Points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 0 and 2, 18 and 4, 36 and 6, 48 and 8, 56. These points are connected by a line. The label on the x axis is Number of Hours. The title on the y axis is Total Amount in dollars. A graph is shown. The values on the x axis are 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The values on the y axis are 0, 18, 36, 54, 72, and 90. Points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 0 and 2, 18 and 4, 36 and 6, 56 and 8, 56. These points are connected by a line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow! That's a lot of stuff! Basically, what you need to do is to choose the answer that describes a straight line graph. More to come...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cause X axis multiplied by Y axi9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the x-values are given as (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10) and the y-values are given as (0, 18, 36, 54, 72, 90). In order for there to be a straight line, the ordered pairs must be organized like (1st x-value, 1st y-value), (2nd x-value, 2nd y-value), etc. Do you understand what I mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

csausre

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so X * 9 = Y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how about this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The graph below shows the numbers of cups of strawberry juice that are mixed with different numbers of cups of lemon-lime soda to make servings of strawberry soda: A graph is shown. The values on the x axis are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. The values on the y axis are 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35. Points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 0 and 1, 7 and 2, 14 and 3, 21 and 4, 28. These points are connected by a line. The label on the x axis is Lemon-Lime Soda in cups. The title on the y axis is Strawberry Juice in cups. What is the ratio of the number of cups of strawberry juice to the number of cups of lemon-lime soda? 1:28 28:1 7:1 1:7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do the same thing as you did for the last one. How many cups of strawberry juice are added for every cup of soda?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right. Just make sure you choose the ratio in the right order. The question asks for strawberry juice : soda.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that 1:7 or 7:1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7:1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well done!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok this is a fracttion one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If 4 over 7 of a ton of concrete covers 7 over 8 of a bridge, how many tons of concrete are required to cover the entire bridge? 17 over 56 ton 3 over 7 ton 1 over 2 ton 32 over 49 ton

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 4/7 tons of concrete covers 7/8 of the bridge. In order to cover the entire bridge, you need to add another 1/7 of the amount of concrete. Not sure how well I explained that. Does it make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no not really i am a slow learner

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you dont know how we can skip it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not at all. Let's see if I can do better.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know how to do it, just having trouble explaining it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get it use the draw and solve it as if it were your math problem just dont put the answertr

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK, so 7/8 of the bridge is covered. But we need the whole bridge (8/8) to be covered. So, to go from 7 parts covered to 8 parts covered, you need to add 1 more part. But how much is that 1 more part? Well, you know how much the 7 parts is, so take that amount and divide it by 7 to figure out how much 1 part is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no 1/8 sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mathematically,\[\frac{ 4 }{ 7 } \text{ ton} + \frac{ 1 }{ 7 }\left( \frac{ 4 }{ 7 } \text{ ton}\right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11 1/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 & 1/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite. What is 1/7 x 4/7 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4/49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Terrific. Now you need to add 4/7 + 4/49.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

32/49

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yes!!! D)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There's your answer. Well done! Sorry for the weak explanation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mno i think that is the best anyone could do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The regular price of a coat is $35.25. During a sale, the coat was marked 20% off. What was the price of the coat during the sale? $28.20 $23.25 $35.05 $35.45

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i wanted to know if it was A)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cuz i had solved it but wuz unsure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are correct. Good job.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did it!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yayyy!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried doing what you just told me wit this one but i found myself wrong so: If a sprinkler waters 1 over 15 of a lawn in 1 over 3 hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn? 5 hours 15 hours 18 hours 45 hours

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one is a little easier. The whole lawn will take 15 times as long as it takes for 1/15 of the lawn. Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

completely, yess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK. What's 15 x 1/3 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Bingo!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The table below shows the proportional relationship between the weight of cereal, in ounces, and the number of packs of cereal: Number of Packs of Cereal Number of Ounces of Cereal 2 34 3 51 4 68 What is the constant of proportionality? 9 17 34 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What number (constant of proportionality) do you need to multiply the number of packs by to get the number of ounces?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

number of packs of cerials number of ounces 2 34 3 51 4 68

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In other words, just divide the number of ounces by the corresponding number of packs. It doesn't matter which example you use, the answer will be the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 68, 153, 272

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If 2 packs is 34 ounces, how many ounces is there in 1 pack?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thats my answer?
