A grocery store manager received two shipments of oranges. According to the distributor of the oranges, the oranges in both ship

ments were equivalent because all of the oranges ranged in weight from 140 to 190 grams. The grocery store manager decided to weigh a sample of 25 oranges from each shipment to compare the weights of the oranges. The line plots show the manager's results
Based on these samples, which statement is true about the two shipments of oranges?


The two shipments have about the same mean weight but a different range of weights.

The two shipments have a different mean weight and a different range of weights.

The two shipments have about the same mean weight and the same range of weights.

We have been given two line plots which represents the data weight of 25 oranges of two shipments created by  grocery store manager.

We have to find which of the given statements are true. To answer our problem we have to find the range and mean of the given data.

The range of a data set can be calculated  subtracting the lowest value of data set from highest value of data set. By subtracting lowest value from highest value of both of our data set we get

190-140=50

Since both data sets have same highest and lowest values our range is same that is equal to 50.

Now we will find mean of both data sets. Let us start with shipment 1 data.

Mean of shipment 1 = \frac{140+145+150+2(155)+2(160)+3(165)+4(170)+5(175)+3(180)+2(185)+190}{25}\\&#10;=\frac{4215}{25}\\&#10;=\frac{843}{5}=168.6

Now we will find mean of shipment 2.

Mean of shipment 2 =\frac{140+3(145)+5(150)+4(155)+3(160)+2(165)+2(170)+2(175)+180+185+190}{25}&#10;=\frac{4000}{25}&#10;=160

After calculating mean of both data sets we get mean of both data sets are different. Now look at the provided options which is equivalent to our answer.

The last option is correct because we got the same result in our answer that two shipments have the same range of weights but a different mean weight.

X + x + x = 54<br> What’s the answer for this
Oliga [24]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x+x+x=54

(x+x+x)=54(Combine Like Terms)

3x=54

3x=54

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x  3 = 54

3 x=18

Answer:

x=18

Hello

1 km = 1000 m

12 km = 12,000 m

Each day, she runs 10 * 400 m = 4000 m

12,000 m / 4000 m = 3

It will take 3 days.

Kathy is fencing in her yard that has an area of 800 square feet. Her yard is in the shape of a rectangle where the length is 60
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be:

W: width of the yard.

L:length.

Now, we can write the equation of that relates length and width:

L=5W-60 (Equation #1)

The area of the yard can be expressed as (using equation #1 into #2):

Area=W*L=W*(5W-60) (Equation #2)

Since the Area of the yard is 800 ft^2, then equation #2 turns into:

800=W*(5W-60)

Now, we rearrange this equation:  

800=W*(5W-60)//800=5W^2-60W//5W^2-60W-800=0

We can divide the equation by 5 :

W^2-12W-160=0

We need to find the solution for this quadratic. Let's find the factors of 160 that multiplied yields -160 and added yields -12. Let's choose -20 and 8, since (-20)*8=160 and -20+8=-12. The equation factorised looks like this:

(W-20)(W+8)=0

Therefore the possible solutions are W=20 and W=-8. We discard W=-8 since width must be a positive number. To find the length, we substitute the value of W in equation #1:

5*20-60=40

Therefore, the dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.

Sari drives 55 miles per hour. Which equation shows the proportional relationship between hours (h) and miles (m)?
Finger [1]

Answer:

m=55h

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{y}{x} or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Let

m ----> the distance in miles (y-coordinate)

h ----> the time in hours (x-coordinate)

In this problem the constant of proportionality k is given and is equal to

k=55\ \frac{miles}{hour} ----> the speed

substitute

m=55h
