He created the table to show the results of the experiment.Predict how many boxes of roses with red bows Adam would have to order if he were to sell 1,567 total boxes of flowers. Round to the nearest whole number.(1 point)
To predict how many boxes of roses with red bows Adam would have to order, we need to find the proportion of boxes of roses with red bows out of the total number of boxes of flowers.
First, let's find the total number of boxes of roses with red bows:
15 (Boxes of Roses with Red Bow)
Next, let's find the total number of boxes of flowers:
15 (Roses and a Red Bow) + 12 (Roses and a Yellow Bow) + 5 (Roses and a Green Bow) + 8 (Carnations and a Red Bow) + 5 (Carnations and a Yellow Bow) + 9 (Carnations and a Green Bow) + 17 (Daisies and a Red Bow) + 12 (Daisies and a Yellow Bow) + 7 (Daisies and a Green Bow) = 90
Now, we can find the proportion of boxes of roses with red bows out of the total number of boxes of flowers:
15 / 90 = 1 / 6
To predict how many boxes of roses with red bows Adam would have to order if he were to sell 1,567 total boxes of flowers, we need to multiply the proportion by the total number of boxes of flowers:
1 / 6 * 1,567 = 261.17
Rounded to the nearest whole number, Adam would have to order approximately 261 boxes of roses with red bows.
wrong
Let's correct the calculation:
To predict how many boxes of roses with red bows Adam would have to order, we need to find the proportion of boxes of roses with red bows out of the total number of boxes of flowers.
First, let's find the total number of boxes of roses with red bows:
15 (Boxes of Roses with Red Bow)
Next, let's find the total number of boxes of flowers:
15 (Roses and a Red Bow) + 12 (Roses and a Yellow Bow) + 5 (Roses and a Green Bow) + 8 (Carnations and a Red Bow) + 5 (Carnations and a Yellow Bow) + 9 (Carnations and a Green Bow) + 17 (Daisies and a Red Bow) + 12 (Daisies and a Yellow Bow) + 7 (Daisies and a Green Bow) = 90
Now, we can find the proportion of boxes of roses with red bows out of the total number of boxes of flowers:
15 / 90 = 1 / 6
To predict how many boxes of roses with red bows Adam would have to order if he were to sell 1,567 total boxes of flowers, we need to multiply the proportion by the total number of boxes of flowers:
(1 / 6) * 1567 = 261.17
Therefore, rounded to the nearest whole number, Adam would have to order approximately 261 boxes of roses with red bows.
