$34.99 ... 2.5-pound bags
$x = ? ... 1 pound

If you would like to know what is the unit rate of the shrimp in dollars per pound, you can calculate this using the following steps:

34.99 * 1 = x * 2.5
34.99 = x * 2.5      /2.5
x = 34.99 / 2.5
x = $13.996 = $14

The correct result would be $14.

Lets write the information which we have:-

$34.99 for 2.5 pound bag. 

To find this we will divide the amount of money for 2.5 pound bag. 

34.99 ÷ 2.5 = <span>13.996

</span><span>13.996 rounded to the nearest dollar would be 14.
</span>
So, the unit rate is ABOUT $14 per pound. 

Hope I helped ya!!

Of the following options, what could be a possible first step in solving the equation 8x + 3 = 2x − 15?
miskamm [114]
 B.<span>Adding 15 to both sides of the equation. 

A. Adding 8x to both sides wouldn't cancel anything out. 
B. Adding 15 to both sides will cancel out 15 making it easier to solve for x.  
C.Adding 3 to both sides will not cancel anything out.
D. Adding 2x to both sides won't cancel anything out. </span>

What is equation of the line that passes through the point (-3,8) and has an undefined slope
aniked [119]

The equation of line that passes through point (-3, 8) and has an undefined slope is x = -3

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that we have to find the equation of line that passes through point (-3, 8) and has an undefined slope

Since the line has an undefined slope. This informs us that it is a vertical line parallel to the y-axis and passing through all points in the plane with the same x-coordinate.

If the slope of the line is undefined, then, by definition the line is a vertical line.

For a vertical line, the value of  x  is the same for each and every value of  y

Given point is (x, y) = (-3 , 8)

Because the value of  x  in the point provided in the problem is -3, we get

Equation of line is : x = -3

Suppose that the population mean for income is $50,000, while the population standard deviation is 25,000. If we select a random
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Probability that the sample will have a mean that is greater than $52,000 is 0.0057.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population mean for income is $50,000, while the population standard deviation is 25,000.

We select a random sample of 1,000 people.

<em>Let </em>\bar X<em> = sample mean</em>

The z-score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

               Z = \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean = $50,000

            \sigma = population standard deviation = $25,000

            n = sample of people = 1,000

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

So, probability that the sample will have a mean that is greater than $52,000 is given by = P(\bar X > $52,000)

  P(\bar X > $52,000) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } > \frac{52,000-50,000}{\frac{25,000}{\sqrt{1,000} } } ) = P(Z > 2.53) = 1 - P(Z \leq 2.53)

                                                                    = 1 - 0.9943 = 0.0057

<em>Now, in the z table the P(Z </em>\leq<em> x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.53 in the z table which has an area of 0.9943.</em>

Therefore, probability that the sample will have a mean that is greater than $52,000 is 0.0057.
