Jessica made 124 cookies. She put the cookies into three boxes, A, B and C.

Mathematics

There are 78 cookies in box C, 26 cookies in box B and 10 cookies in box A.

let the number of cookies in first box be represented mathematically as   B-16

the number of cookies in second box be represented as B

the number of cookies in third box be represented as 3B

Since there are 124 cookies we can make an equation  such that it becomes

B-16 +B +3B =124

Solving for B, we have

5B -16 =124

5B =124 +16

5B =130

B=130/5

B=26

Therefore Box A contains B-16 =26-16 =10 cookies

Box C contains 3B =3 X 26=78 cookies

Which steps could be part of the process in algebraically solving the system of equations, y + 5x = x2 + 10 and y = 4x – 10? Che
guapka [62]
That would be :
 4x – 10 = x2 – 5x + 10  ( y = 4x - 10 is substitute for y)

 PROOF:        y + 5x = x²<span> + 10
</span>                      (4x - 10) + 5x = x² + 10
                       4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10
     <span>
    
</span>0 = x2 – 9x + 20<span>  (liked terms are grouped and simplified)

PROOF:     </span> 4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10
                    4x = x² -5x + 10 + 10
                     0  = x² -5x -4x + 20
                     0  = x² - 9x + 20


Solving:
              x² - 9x + 20 = 0 

              x² - 5x - 4x + 20 = 0

              (x - 5) (x - 4)  = 0

           ⇒ x = 4  (as question says) OR x = 5

<h3>What is population proportion?</h3>

A population proportion is defined as the percentage of a population that belongs to a individual category. Certainty gaps are used to evaluate population proportions.

Here, the margin of error is 3.4%.
expected population proportion = 58% ± 3.4%
expected population proportion interval = (58% - 3.4%, 58% + 3.4%)
expected population proportion interval = (54.6%, 61.4%).


Thus, The required expected population proportion that prefers to shop at places with loyalty cards is between 54.6% and 61.4%.
