We know that 5 lbs of apples cost $2.99

To know how much do 3 lbs of apple cost, you can use cross multiplication

If 5 lbs cost $2.99

Then 3 lbs cost $x

The proportion between the price and the number of apples is the same, you have to calculate it as:

\begin{gathered} \frac{2.99}{5}=\frac{x}{3} \\ (\frac{2.99}{5})\cdot3=x \\ x=1.794 \end{gathered}

3 lbs of apples cost $1.79

A number is selected from the set (1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, 29, 38, 500). If equal elemental probabilities are assigned, what is
Katen [24]

Answer:

\frac{7}{9} OR 77.78%

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we first need to find out how many numbers fit the "less than 29 or odd" group.

This would be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, and 29, which is a total of 7 numbers.

Next, we figure out the total amount of numbers in the population.

This would be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, 29, 38, and 500, which is a total of 9 numbers.

Finally, we put the first number (7) over the total (9) = \frac{7}{9}

\frac{7}{9} is now able to be written in a percentage, if you need.

The probability is \frac{7}{9} OR 77.78%

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

2x^2 + 8 = -2 + 7
-2 + 7 = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by

x^2 + 4x = 5/2

Add (4/2^2) to both sides of the equation

x^2 + 4x + (4/2)^2 = 5/2 + (4/2)^2

factor the expression

(x + 4/2)^2 = 13/2

reduce the fraction by 2

(x + 2)^2 = 13/2

now solve equation for x
