Kurt and Maria's high school is having a newspaper drive.The goal is to collect 3,585 pounds of newspapers. So far, 21% of the goal has been reached. Kurt estimated the number of pounds of newspapers collected by finding 10% of 3,600 and then multiplying the result by 2. Maria estimated the number of pounds of newspapers collected by finding One-fifth of 3,600.
Options:
Who is right, and why?
a. Neither Kurt nor Maria is right, because 3,500 should be used instead of 3,600.
b. Kurt is right, because finding 1/5 of 3,600 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
c. Maria is right, because finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 is not a good way to approximate 21% of 3,585.
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Answer:
d. Both Kurt and Maria are right, because 3,585 should be rounded up to 3,600, and 21% of this amount can be approximated by either finding 10% of 3,600 and multiplying the result by 2 or by finding 1/5 of 3,600.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Goal = 3585[/tex]
[tex]Collected = 21\%[/tex]
[tex]Kurt= 10\% * 3600 * 2[/tex]
[tex]Maria = \frac{1}{5} * 3600[/tex]
Required [Missing from the question]
Who is correct and why?
First, we calculate the actual amount collected.
[tex]Actual = Collected * Goal[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 21\% * 3585[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 752.85[/tex]
[tex]Actual = 753[/tex] --- approximate
Next, determine the estimate (round 3585 to 3600 and 21% to 20%)
[tex]Estimate = 20\% * 3600[/tex]
[tex]Estimate = 720[/tex]
Next, calculate Kurt and Maria's estimates
[tex]Kurt= 10\% * 3600 * 2[/tex]
[tex]Kurt = 720[/tex]
[tex]Maria = \frac{1}{5} * 3600[/tex]
[tex]Maria = 720[/tex]
Hence, Kurt and Maria are correct because of option (d)

Step-by-step explanation:
Jennifer's grandma bought her a $50 savings bond when she was born. When Jennifer is 30 years old, the bond will have earned 110% in interest. How much will the bond be worth when Jennifer is 30 years old?
Answer:
105$
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that she starts with 50$
We are also that after 30 years she earns 110% on interest
Given this information we need to find the value of the bond after the 30 years
To do so we take 110% of the initial value (50$) and add that to the initial value
So the answer = 110%(50) + 50
110%*50=55
55+50=105
So in 30 years the bond will be worth 105$

Answer:
19.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Initial height=36in
Final height= 43in
% increase= Final-initial/initial*100
Substitute
% increase= 43-36/36*100
%increase= 7/36*100
%increase= 0.194*100
%increase= 19.4%
Hence the increase is 19.4%

(will give brainly) orde the values on the cards below in ascending order
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set 1
first of all we have to look at the negative numbers:
-99% = -0,99
-√80 = is almost 9
so :
-9,(9) ; -√80 ; -99%
then the positive numbers:
19% = 0,19
√9 = 3
1/9 = 0,11...
so
1/9 ; 19% ; √9
final answer:
-9,(9) ; -√80 ; -99% ; 1/9 ; 19%, √9
Set 2
descending order = from greatest to least
In this case we have to look at first at positive numbers
2/3 = 0,6
√23 = 4,...
20/3 = 6,...
23% = 0,23
so
20/3 ; √23 ; 2/3 ; 23%
negative numbers
-√34 = -5,...
so :
-4,(3) ; -√34
final answer:
20/3 ; √23 ; 2/3 ; 23% ; -4,(3) ; -√34
Lisa rolls a number cube that has sides labeled 1 to 6 and then flips a coin. What is the probability that she rolls an odd number and flips tails?
A.1/8
B.1/4
C.1/2
D.3/4
Answer: B. 1/4
Step-by-step explanation: The probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6 since there are 3 odd numbers between 1 and 6 (1, 3, 5). The probability of flipping a coin and getting tails is 1/2 since you can either get heads or tails. With this knowledge, you must multiply these two probabilities to get the probability of getting an odd number AND tails; so, 3/6 x 1/2 = 3/12 = 1/4.

There is a bag with only milk and dark chocolates.
5
The probability of randomly choosing a dark chocolate is 1
12
There are 25 dark chocolates in the bag and each is equally likely to be chosen.
Work out how many milk chocolates there must be.
Answer:
There are 300 milk chocolates in the bag.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there is a bag with only milk and dark chocolates, and the probability of randomly choosing a dark chocolate is 1/12, if there are 25 dark chocolates in the bag and each is equally likely to be chosen, to determine how many milk chocolates there must be the following calculation must be performed:
1 = 25
12 = X
12 x 25/1 = X
300/1 = X
300 = X
Therefore, there are 300 milk chocolates in the bag.
Trent attaches his A+ test to the refrigerator with a circular magnet. Out of curiosity, he measures the magnet and calculates that it has a diameter of 4 centimeters. What is the magnet's area?
Answer:
12.6 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, the magnet is circular in shape
The area of a circle is given as:
= πr²
The area of the magnet = π × r²
Diameter = 4cm
r = Diameter/2 = 4cm/2 = 2cm
= π × (2cm)²
= 12.566370614cm²
Approximately = 12.6 cm²
The area of the magnet = 12.6cm²
