a grocery store receives a shipment of 700 oranges the manager randomly selects 25 oranges to weigh. in that sample 2 oranges weigh 5 ounces. How many oranges in the shipment can the manager predict weigh 5 ounces

Answers

Answer 1
set up a proportion

2 x
— = —
25 700

700(2)= 25(x)

1400/25=x

x=56
Answer 2

The number of oranges in the shipment can the manager predict weighing 5 ounces would be; 56.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The relations between variables, either direct or inversely proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

Given that a grocery store receives a shipment of 700 oranges the manager randomly selects 25 oranges to weigh in that sample 2 oranges weigh 5 ounces.

Now set up a proportion;

2/25 = (x)700

Cross multiplication;

700(2)= 25(x)

1400/25=x

x=56

Therefore, the number of oranges in the shipment can the manager predicts weighing 5 ounces would be; 56.

Last year, 120 new houses were built in a neighborhood. So far this year, 2/3

Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Multiply the total number of houses built by the fraction sold:

120 x 2/3 = (120 x 2)/3 = 240/3 = 80

80 houses were sold.

New houses built = 120

New houses sold = 2/3 x 120

= 80 new houses

The value of the matrix X is X =  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-2\\7&0\\\end{array}\right][/tex].

What are Matrices?

Matrices are a set of numbers arranged in such a way that the numbers are arranged in rows and columns.

Each number is called element in a matrix.

Given are two matrices.

A = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&-7\\6&1\\\end{array}\right][/tex] and B = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-9&5\\1&-1\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

We have given that, a matrix X exists such that,

X - A = B

We can rearrange this as,

X = A + B

Adding the two matrices,

The entries will be,

2 - 9 = -7

-7 + 5 = -2

6 + 1 = 7

1 - 1 = 0

X =  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-2\\7&0\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Hence the X is option A.

A process that fills packages is stopped whenever a package is detected whose weight falls outside the specification. Assume that each package has probability 0.02 of falling outside the specification and that the weights of the packages are independent. Find the mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped. Numeric Response

Answers

Answer:

The mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each package, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it fails outside the specifications, or it does not. Packages are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Number of trials expected for n sucesses

Also called inverse binomial distribution, is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{n}{p}[/tex]

In which p is the probability of a success in a trial.

Assume that each package has probability 0.02 of falling outside the specification and that the weights of the packages are independent.

This means that [tex]p = 0.02[/tex]

Find the mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped.

This is when [tex]n = 1[/tex], as the process is stopped when a package is outside the specifications. So

[tex]E = \frac{n}{p} = \frac{1}{0.02} = 50[/tex]

The mean number of packages that will be filled before the process is stopped is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:

  o +y +b +v = r +g +b

  o +y +v = g +v

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  (o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)

  b = r +b -v

Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...

  b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)

  v = r

Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:

20) Since the triangles are similar, you can say that 98 corresponds to 42 and 77 corresponds to 3x+6, because of this you can write an equation ((98/77)(3x-6) =42) and then simplify to get x = 13.

21) Since ABC and DFE are similar, we can say that 2x+2 corresponds to x+3 and 24 corresponds to 16. You can write this as the equation (24/2x+2)(x+3) = 16 and simplify to get x=5.

find the value of x and y in the following figure where ABCD is a parallelogram

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:

3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)

Solve for x

3x - 1 = 2x + 2

Collect like terms

3x - 2x = 1 + 2

x = 3

Also:

5y + 1 = 6y - 1

Collect like terms

5y - 6y = -1 - 1

-y = -2

Divide both sides by -1

y = -2/-1

y = 2

√130 or ≈ 11.40175425

Step-by-step explanation:

(-6, 0) & (5, 3)

To find the distance between these two points, we want to use the distance formula: d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Plug in the given values.

d = √[(5 - (-6))² + (3 - 0)²]

Simplify the parentheses.

d = √[(5 + 6)² + (3 - 0)²]

d = √[(11)² + (3)²]

Evaluate the exponents.

d = √[(121) + (9)]

Add the expression within the brackets [ ].

d = √[130]

This is your answer.

A school sells 712 tickets for a talent show. Adult tickets cost $8 each, and children's tickets cost $4 each. A total of $4,256 is collected
from ticket sales. Which system of equations can be used to determine the number of adult tickets sold, x, and the number of children's
tickets sold, y?
O A. x + y = 712
4x + 8y = 4,256
OB. x + y = 712
8x + 4y = 4,256
C. X + 8y = 712
x + 4y = 4,256
OD. 8x + y = 712
4x + y = 4,256

Answers

Answer:

B

x + y = 712

8x + 4y = 4,256

Step-by-step explanation:

If x=the amount of adult tickets, and y=the amount of children's tickets, then the total amount of tickets (712) should be x+y. Our first equation: x+y=712

The total made from adult tickets is found by multiplying the amount of tickets by the price per ticket: 8x. The total made from children's tickets is found by multiplying the amount of tickets by the price per ticket: 4y.The total amount of money made (4256) is the sum of the amount made by adult tickets (8x) and the amount made by children's tickets (4y). Our second equation: 8x+4y=4256

I. Ella packed 70 books more than Ray.

II. Ray packed 580 books.

III. Ella packed 650 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Ray = 29 boxes of 20 books

Ella = 26 boxes with 25 books

To find the total number of books packed by Ray;

Total for Ray (Ray packed) = 29 * 20

Total for Ray = 580 books.

To find the total number of books packed by Ella;

Total for Ella (Ella packed) = 26 * 25

Total for Ella = 650 books.

Next, we find the difference between the books packed by Ella and Ray;

Difference = Ella - Ray

Difference = 650 - 580

Difference = 70 books

What are all of the zeros in this equation?

Answers

Answer:

0, 1 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions;

x^3-2x^2+x = 0

x(x^2-2x+1) = 0

x = 0 and x^2-2x+1 = 0

Factorize x^2-2x+1 = 0

x^2-x-x+1 = 0

x(x-1)-1(x-1) = 0

(x-1)(x-1)= 0

x = 1 twice

hence the zeros of the equation are 0, 1 and 1
