In order to get $5 per pound, you need a ratio of 1:2. One $9 for every two $3 will get you $5 per pound, since 9 + 3 + 3 is 15, divided by 3 pounds is $5. For 240 pounds, divide by three (since there is one $9 and two $3). This is 80 times the 3 pounds at $5.
Therefore, 1 × 80 is 80 pounds of $9 coffee, and 2 × 80 is 160 pounds if $3 coffee. which totals 240 pounds at $5 per pound.

Find f(–2) for the function f(x) = 3x2 – 2x 7. −13 −1 1 23
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

f ( x ) = 3x² - 2x

To find : f ( - 2 )

f ( - 2 ) = f ( x )

Here,

x = - 2

f ( - 2 ) = 3 ( - 2 )² - 2 ( - 2 )

           = 3 ( 4 ) - 2*( - 2 )

           = 3*4 + 4

           = 12 + 4

f ( - 2 ) = 16

P5

From Z tables and at P5 = 5% = 0.05, Z = -1.645
Therefore,
True value = mean +Z*SD = 24.1+(-1.645*2.1) = 20.6455 Chips per cookie

P95

From Z table and at P95=95%=0.95, Z= 1.645
Therefore,
True value = 24.1 +(1.645*2.1) = 27.5545 Chips per cookie

These values shows the percentages of amount of chips in the cookies. Thus, the more the percentage considered, the more the amount of chips in the cookies. This can be used to control the number of chips in cookies during production.
