Lets x is price of noble fir trees and y - is price for douglas fir trees
students got 5x+3y=420$ on friday
and 12x+9y=1080
now we need just solve the system of equations
5x+3y=420 - multiply by 3
12x+9y=1080

15x+9y=1260
12x+9y=1080
substract second equation from first
15x-12x=1260-1080
3x=180 x=60$ - the price of noble fir trees

put value x=60 in first equation 5x+3y=420
5*60+3y=420
300+3y=420
3y=120 y=40$ - price of Douglas fir trees

Answer: Noble fir trees cost $60 and Douglas fir trees cost $40

Rounded to the nearest hundred thousand to 400,000
kozerog [31]
That number is impossible to round... It is probably already been rounded to the Highest form.
400,000 has not other numbers to round up or down (Unless you say 4 but then it would stay as it is)

The frequency distribution is

S/N Class limit Frequency

1 0-2 4

2 3 -4 1

3 5-6 2

4 7-8 2

5 9 - 10 0

6 11 - 12 0

The value for value upper class boundary of the fifth class is CB_5 =  10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The lower class limit is 0

The class width is 2

The scores is 8,6,2,4,2,0,2,6,7

The frequency distribution is

S/N Class limit Frequency

1 0-2 4

2 3 -4 1

3 5-6 2

4 7-8 2

5 9 - 10 0

6 11 - 12 0

Generally the upper class boundary of the fifth class is mathematically represented as

CB_5 =  \frac{10 + 11}{2}

            CB_5 =  10.5
