Weight of an grapefruit=weight of an orange+8% weight of an orange
weight of an apple=weight of an orange -10% weight of an orange

a.<span>By what percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
We should find the connection between grapefruit and an apple. We know the connection between the weight of a grapefruit and an orange, we know the connection between an orange and an apple, so this means we know the connection between a grapefruit and an apple.
</span>
weight of an grapefruit=weight of an <span>orange+8% weight of an orange
</span>weight of an orange=weight of an apple<span> +10% weight of an apple
</span>
-> weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple + 8%(weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple)= weight of an apple + 18% weight of an apple + 2% weight of an apple= <span>weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple 

</span><span>b.By what percentage is the apple lighter than the grapefruit?
</span>weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple<span>

Toko follows a budget to buy supplies to paint his room. He spends 1/2 of his budget on a roller, a tray, and tape. He spends $1
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The answer is $36.

B - budget
So the calculation is as following:
B= \frac{1}{2}B + 12.27 +  \frac{3.82}{ \frac{2}{3} } = \frac{1}{2}B + 12.27 + \frac{3.82*3}{2}=   \frac{1}{2}B + 12.27 +5.73
B= \frac{1}{2} B + 18
B- \frac{1}{2}B = 18
\frac{1}{2}B = 18
B = 18*2=36

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a table showing  the​ weights, in hundreds of​ pounds, for six selected cars. Also shown is the corresponding fuel​ efficiency, in miles per gallon​ (mpg), for the car in city driving.

Weight Fuel eff. x^2 xy y^2

X Y    

28 20 784 560 400

3 22 9 66 484

35 19 1225 665 361

32 22 1024 704 484

30 23 900 690 529

Mean 26.16666667 21.16666667 797.1666667 549 449.8333333

     

Variance   112.4722222  1.805555556

Covariance -553.8611111    

     

     

r -0.341120235    

Correlaton coefficient =cov (xy)/S_x S_y

Covariance (x,y) = E(xy)-E(x)E(y)

The correlation coefficient between the weight of a car and the fuel efficiency is -0.341
