The lower bound is 147.5 and the upper bound is 152.5.

Given the weight of an apple 150 g rounded to the nearest 5g.

We have to find lower bound and upper bound.

Lower bound is an element less than or equal to all the elements in a given set.

Upper bound is an element greater than all the elements in a given set.

Lower bound= Number 1- (Number nearest to which number 1 is rounded)/2

Upper bound=Number 1+(number nearest to which number 1 is rounded)/2

Weight of an apple =150 g

Lower bound=150-5/2

=150-2.5

=147.5

Upper bound=150+5/2

=150+2.5

=152.5

Hence the lower bound is 147.5 and upper bound is 152.5.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Sarah bought 7 coach tickets and 4 first class tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided, you can write the following equations:

x+y=11 (1)

240x+1100y=6080 (2), where:

x is the number of coach tickets

y is the number of first class tickets

In order to find the value of x and y, first you have to solve for x in (1):

x=11-y (3)

Now, you have to replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

240(11-y)+1100y=6080

2640-240y+1100y=6080

860y=6080-2640

860y=3440

y=3440/860

y=4

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find the value of x:

x=11-y

x=11-4

x=7

According to this, the answer is that Sarah bought 7 coach tickets and 4 first class tickets.

A box of donuts containing 6 maple bars, 3 chocolate donuts, and 3 custard filled donuts is sitting on a counter in a work offic

Svetlanka [38]

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of selecting a kind of donut from the box.

The probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is 0.068

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Bars = 6}$

$\mathbf{Chocolate = 3}$

$\mathbf{Custard= 3}$

The total number of donuts in the box is:

$\mathbf{Total= 6 + 3 + 3}$

$\mathbf{Total= 12}$

The probability of eating a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is calculated using:

$\mathbf{Pr = \frac{Chocolate}{Total}\times \frac{Custard}{Total-1}}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{12-1}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{Pr = \frac{3}{12}\times \frac{3}{11}}$

Multiply

$\mathbf{Pr = \frac{9}{132}}$

Divide

$\mathbf{Pr = 0.068}$

Hence, the probability that Warren eats a chocolate donut, and then a custard filled donut is approximately 0.068
