Answer:

Cost 0.70 per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you see the cost and the weight you can get the price per pound, so if 5 pounds cost $3.50, you can evaluate doing a rule of three:

\frac{3.50}{5}=\frac{x}{1}

So if you clear X you´d get this:

x=\frac{(3.5)(1)}{5}

x=0.70

So the cost per pound is $0.70.

Now that you have the cost per pound you can do the equivalent ratios:

Cost---------------Apples

0.70---------------1 pound

3.5--------------- 5 pounds

  7---------------  10 pounds

Set up a proportion. 3.50 over 5 = x over 1 (x is what we are trying to find= the cost of 1 lb of apples)
Use cross products and multiply 3.50 by 1 to get 3.50 and then divide that by 5 to get 0.7.

So the apple cost 0.7 or seventy cents per pound.

Check: 0.7*5=3.5

That is correct!

Hope this helps!

What two whole numbers is √29 between?<br> 3 and 4<br><br> 4 and 5<br><br> 5 and 6<br><br> 6 and 7
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider perfect square numbers either side of 29

25 < 29 < 36, thus

\sqrt{25} < \sqrt{29} < \sqrt{36}, that is

5 < \sqrt{29} < 6

The weights of adobe bricks used for construction are normally distributed with a mean of 3 pounds and a standard deviation of 0
dedylja [7]

Answer:  a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 3 pounds

Standard deviation = 0.25 pounds

n = 28 bricks

So, (a) What is the probability that all the bricks in the sample exceed 2.75 pounds?

P(X>2.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{2.75-3}{0.25}\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{-0.25}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>-1)\\\\=0.8413

b) What is the probability that the heaviest brick in the sample exceeds 3.75 pounds?

P(X>3.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{3.75-3}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.75}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>3)\\\\=0.9987

Hence, a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.
