Answer:
20.3 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Write and solve an equation involving ratios:
5 units 15.7 units
------------- = ----------------
9 units C
Cross-multiplying, we get 5C = 9(15.7), with C measured in "units."
Then 5C = 141.3, so that C = 141.3 units / 5 = 20.3 units.
I found the dot plots that accompanies this problem.
Based on the plots, the <span>statement that gives is a valid comparison of the number of candies in the bags of the two Brands is:
</span><span>B. The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is greater and less consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A.
Dots in Brand B are scattered and whereas dots in Brand A are not and they are more concentrated between 52 to 55 range. </span>
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A</h3>
<u>Angle measures:</u>
- a = x = z = 51° (as vertical angles and corresponding angles)
- b = d = y = w = 180° - 51° = 129° (as supplementary angles and corresponding angles)
<h3>Part B</h3>
Supplementary angles for a linear pair and sum to 180°.
<u>Examples are:</u>
- a and b or
- a and d or
- x and y etc.
