Sleeping in the Forest Guiding Questions


I thought the earth

remembered me, shetook me back so tenderly, arranging

her dark skirts, her pockets

full of lichens[1] and seeds. I slept

as never before, a stone

on the riverbed, nothing

between me and the white fire of the stars

but my thoughts, and they floated

light as moths among the branches

of the perfect trees. All night

I heard the small kingdoms breathing

around me, the insects, and the birdswho do their work in the darkness. All night

I rose and fell, as if in water, grappling[2]

with a luminous doom. By morning

I had vanished at least a dozen times

into something better.

To make 8 cups of tomato soup you need 2 pounds of tomatoes. How many pounds of tomatoes do you need to make 32 cups of soup? Show your work using one of the 5 strategies (table)

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide 32 and 8

32/8=4

Now, multiply 4 and 2

4x2=8

(Hope this helps!)

2/8=1/4 which means you need 1/4 of a pound to make one cup. So then multiply 1/4 by 32 which equaled 8 so your answer is 8

Write an en expression that could be used to find the amount Samantha earns working any number of months,

Answers

Answer:

3m • 462.30 = 1,386.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the example of 3 months. So, working one month Samantha earns $462.30. Let's say she works part-time for 3 months.

Multiply. 462.30 • 3 = $1,386.9

That means working 3 months, Samantha earns $1,386.90.

Then, just write it in standard form.

3m • 462.30 = 1,386.90

462.30m=t
(t represents total)
you could use any variable to represent the total amount. since they are asking for any number of months allowing m to represent the unknown number of months is imperative!

The stem-and-leaf plot displays data collected on the size of 15 classes at two different schools.


Mountain View School Seaside School
0 5, 8
9, 8, 2, 0 1 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 8
8, 7, 6, 5, 5, 4, 4, 3, 1, 0 2 5, 5, 7, 7, 8
0 3 0, 6
Key: 2 | 1 | 0 means 12 for Mountain View and 10 for Seaside


Part A: Calculate the measures of center. Show all work. (2 points)

Part B: Calculate the measures of variability. Show all work. (1 point)

Part C: If you are interested in a smaller class size, which school is a better choice for you? Explain your reasoning. (1 point)

Answers

To calculate the measures of center, we need to find the mean and median for each school.

For Mountain View School:
Data: 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9
Mean: (0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 9) / 19
= 100 / 19
≈ 5.26

To find the median, we need to arrange the data in ascending order: 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9.
The median is the middle value, which is the 10th value in this case.
Median: 5

For Seaside School:
Data: 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9
Mean: (0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 9) / 19
= 80 / 19
≈ 4.21

To find the median, we need to arrange the data in ascending order: 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9.
The median is the middle value, which is the 10th value in this case.
Median: 5

Now let's calculate the measures of variability, specifically the range and interquartile range (IQR).

Range: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values in the dataset.

For Mountain View School:
Range: 9 - 0 = 9

For Seaside School:
Range: 9 - 0 = 9

Interquartile Range (IQR): The IQR is the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1) and measures the spread of the middle 50% of the data.

For Mountain View School:
Q1 = 3
Q3 = 7
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 7 - 3 = 4

For Seaside School:
Q1 = 2
Q3 = 7
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 7 - 2 = 5

To determine which school is a better choice for a smaller class size, we can consider both the mean and the median.

Both the mean and median for Mountain View School are higher than those for Seaside School. This suggests that, on average, the class sizes at Mountain View School are larger than those at Seaside School. Therefore, if you are interested in a smaller class size, Seaside School would be a better choice
Part A:

For Mountain View School:
- Median: The median class size is the middle value, which is 25.
- Mean: The mean class size is the sum of all the class sizes divided by the total number of classes, which is (29 + 28 + 28 + 27 + 25 + 24 + 24 + 23 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 15 + 13 + 10) / 15 = 21.27.

For Seaside School:
- Median: The median class size is the middle value, which is 20.
- Mean: The mean class size is the sum of all the class sizes divided by the total number of classes, which is (25 + 25 + 27 + 27 + 28 + 28 + 28 + 30 + 31 + 35 + 36 + 38 + 40 + 43 + 45) / 15 = 31.13.

Part B:

For Mountain View School:
- Range: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values, which is 29 - 10 = 19.
- Interquartile Range (IQR): The IQR is the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1). From the stem-and-leaf plot, we can see that Q1 is 20 and Q3 is 28. Therefore, the IQR is 28 - 20 = 8.

For Seaside School:
- Range: The range is the difference between the largest and smallest values, which is 45 - 25 = 20.
- Interquartile Range (IQR): The IQR is the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1). From the stem-and-leaf plot, we can see that Q1 is 27 and Q3 is 38. Therefore, the IQR is 38 - 27 = 11.

Part C:

If you are interested in a smaller class size, Mountain View School is a better choice for you because it has a lower mean and median class size than Seaside School.

2/3 - 3/8 Pls help!!!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract 3/8 from 2/3, we need to find a common denominator.

The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.

So, we can convert 2/3 and 3/8 to have a denominator of 24:

2/3 = 16/24

3/8 = 9/24

Now we can subtract:

16/24 - 9/24 = 7/24

Therefore, 2/3 - 3/8 = 7/24.

cassie is placing stickers on a page that is 12 inches long and 8 inches wide the sticker are 3 inches long and 2 inches wide

cassie is placing stickers on a page that is 12 inches long and 8 inches wide the sticker are 3 inches

Answers

Answer:

To find the greatest number of stickers Cassie can place on a page that is 11 inches long and 8 inches wide without them overlapping, we need to use the same approach as before.

Firstly, we need to calculate the maximum number of stickers that can fit along the length of the page, which is now 11 inches. Since each sticker is 3 inches long, we can fit 3 stickers along the length (11 ÷ 3 = 3 with a remainder of 2).

Next, we can calculate the maximum number of stickers that can fit along the width of the page, which is still 8 inches. Since each sticker is 2 inches wide, we can fit 4 stickers along the width (8 ÷ 2 = 4).

To ensure that the stickers do not overlap, we can only use the full row of 3 stickers from the previous calculation. Therefore, we can place 3 stickers along the length and 4 stickers along the width, giving us a maximum of 12 stickers that Cassie can place on the page without them overlapping.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find out how much stickers you can put on the long side:

12/3 = 4

Next, find out how much stickers you can put on the wide side:

8/2 = 4

Lastly, calculate them together:

4x4=16

So the answer is 16.

Find the value of c that will make the following two expressions equivalent to 4!!

The answer is 4, Our teacher gave us the answer but I need the work to show how she got it.

2a+10b-8-2(4a-6) and -6a+10b+c

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 equations:

\(2a+10b-8-2(4a-6)\\-6a+10b+c\)

We are told to find c to make them equivalent, so we can make them equal to each other:

2a+10b-8-2(4a-6)=-6a+10b+c

To find c, we have to isolate it, here are the steps:

2a+10b-8-2(4a-6)=-6a+10b+c

subtract 10b from both sides

2a-8-2(4a-6)=-6a+c

rearrange left side

2a-2(4a-6)-8=-6a+c

distribute the positive 2 to the terms in parenthesis

2a-(8a-12)-8=-6a+c

distribute -1 to the terms in parenthesis

2a-8a+12-8=-6a+c

simplify

-6a+4=-6a+c

add -6a to both sides

4=c

What was the percent decrease in the number of times Hector was scared of the diving board? Round to the nearest percent.
A).37% C).39%
B).38% D).40%

Answers

It is C that’s the answer

The percent decrease in the number of times Hector was scared of the diving board is 37%.

What is Percentage?

percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given that,

Yesterday at the pool Hector got scared of the diving board= 198 times

Today at the pool he only got scared = 124 times

Thus he decreases his fear from yesterday to today is

198-124=74.

So now we need to calculate how much is 74 in 198.

Percentage can be calculated by dividing the value by the total value, and multiplying with 100

74/198×100

=37.37%

After rounding to the nearest percent we get=37%.

Find (gºf)(4) when f(x)
f)(4) when f(x) = 4x - 2 and g(x)
-6x² - 86 - 8.​

Answers

Answer:

(g°f)(4) = -1296

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

g(x) = -6x² - 86x - 8

f(x) = 4x - 2

First find the equation of (g°f)

(g°f) = g [ f (x) ]

(g°f) = g [ 4x-2 ]

Substitute 4x-2 for x in formula of g(x)

g(x) = -6x² - 86x - 8

g(4x-2) = -6(4x - 2)² -8(4x - 2) - 8

g(4x-2) = -6(16x² + 4 - 2(4x)(2)) - 32x + 16 - 8

g(4x-2) = -96x² - 24 +96x - 32x + 16 - 8

g(4x-2) =  -96x² + 64x - 16

(g°f)(x) =  -96x² + 64x - 16

Substitute x=4 into the equation:

(g°f)(4) =  -96(4)² + 64(4) - 16

(g°f)(4) = -1296
