The table shows the number of different kinds of entrées sold at the basketball concession stand on Tuesday night. Entrées Sold on Tuesday Kind of Entrée Number Sold Chili dog 6 Frito pie 16 Hot dog 8 Nachos 10 If the basketball concession stand sells 120 entrées at the basketball concession stand on Friday night, which prediction for Friday is supported by the data in the table? Responses A The number of nachos sold will be half the number of Frito pies sold.The number of nachos sold will be half the number of Frito pies sold. B At least 25 hot dogs will be sold.At least 25 hot dogs will be sold. C The number of hot dogs sold will be 6 more than the number of chili dogs sold.The number of hot dogs sold will be 6 more than the number of chili dogs sold. D The number of nachos sold will be 6 times the number of hot dogs sold.
To make a prediction for Friday night, we can look at the data from Tuesday night and make a reasonable assumption.
According to the table, there were 6 chili dogs, 16 Frito pies, 8 hot dogs, and 10 nachos sold on Tuesday night.
Option A states that the number of nachos sold will be half the number of Frito pies sold. On Tuesday night, there were 16 Frito pies sold. Half of 16 is 8. However, on Tuesday night, there were actually 10 nachos sold, which is more than 8. Therefore, option A is not supported by the data.
Option B states that at least 25 hot dogs will be sold. On Tuesday night, there were 8 hot dogs sold. Since 25 is greater than 8, option B is supported by the data.
Option C states that the number of hot dogs sold will be 6 more than the number of chili dogs sold. On Tuesday night, there were 6 chili dogs sold. Adding 6 to that gives us 12, which is less than the 8 hot dogs sold. Therefore, option C is not supported by the data.
Option D states that the number of nachos sold will be 6 times the number of hot dogs sold. On Tuesday night, there were 8 hot dogs sold. 6 times 8 is 48, which is greater than the 10 nachos sold. Therefore, option D is not supported by the data.
Based on the data, the only prediction supported by the table is option B: at least 25 hot dogs will be sold on Friday night.
you sure
Yes, I am certain that the prediction supported by the data in the table is option B: at least 25 hot dogs will be sold on Friday night. This is because on Tuesday night, there were 8 hot dogs sold, and the prediction states that at least 25 hot dogs will be sold. Since 25 is greater than 8, the prediction is supported by the data.
A bag contains the following prize tickets: • 6 tickets labeled “8-ounce bottle of SLIME” • 2 tickets labeled “4 RINGTONES” • 8 tickets labeled “32-ounce SLUSHIE” • 4 tickets labeled “16-ounce ICE CREAM SUNDAE”. Each of the 190 7th grade students who passed the Math benchmark test will draw a prize ticket from the bag. The prize will be recorded for that student, then the ticket will be returned to the bag. What is a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn? Responses A 7676 B 3838 C 104
To make a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn, we need to consider the number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets in the bag.
According to the information given, there are 8 tickets labeled "32-ounce SLUSHIE" and 4 tickets labeled "16-ounce ICE CREAM SUNDAE" in the bag.
Since each of the 190 7th grade students who passed the Math benchmark test will draw a prize ticket from the bag, we can calculate the average number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn by dividing the total number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets by the number of students.
Total number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets = 8 + 4 = 12.
Number of students = 190.
Prediction = (Number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets) / (Number of students)
= 12 / 190
= 0.063158
Based on this calculation, a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn is approximately 0.063158, which can be rounded to 0 or 1, as we cannot have a fractional number of ticket draws.
Therefore, the most reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn is option C: 1.
A bag contains the following prize tickets: • 6 tickets labeled “8-ounce bottle of SLIME” • 2 tickets labeled “4 RINGTONES” • 8 tickets labeled “32-ounce SLUSHIE” • 4 tickets labeled “16-ounce ICE CREAM SUNDAE”. Each of the 190 7th grade students who passed the Math benchmark test will draw a prize ticket from the bag. The prize will be recorded for that student, then the ticket will be returned to the bag.

To make a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or an ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn, we need to calculate the probability of drawing a slushie or ice cream sundae ticket.
The total number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets in the bag is 8 + 4 = 12.
The total number of tickets in the bag is 6 + 2 + 8 + 4 = 20.
To calculate the probability of drawing a slushie or ice cream sundae ticket, we divide the number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets by the total number of tickets:
Probability = number of slushie and ice cream sundae tickets / total number of tickets
= 12 / 20
= 0.6
Therefore, the probability of drawing a slushie or ice cream sundae ticket is 0.6.
Since there are 190 students drawing tickets, a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn is:
Number of draws = probability * number of students
= 0.6 * 190
= 114
Therefore, a reasonable prediction for the number of times a slushie or ice cream sundae prize ticket will be drawn is 114.
Option D: 114 is the most reasonable prediction.
