Answer: Andre picked 252 pounds of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of pounds of apple picked by Jane.

Let y = number of pounds of apple picked by Andre

Let z = number of pounds of apple picked by Maria

Andre picks three times as many pounds as maria. It means that

y = 3z

Jane picks two times as many pounds as Andre. It means that

x = 2y

The total weight of the apples is 840 pounds. It means that

x + y + z = 840 - - - - - - - - - 1

We will substitute z = y/3 and x = 2y into equation 1

2y + y + y/3 = 840

Cross multiplying with 3

6y + 3y + y = 2520

10y = 2520

y = 2520/10 = 252

x = 2y = 252× 2 = 504

z = y/3 = 252/3 = 84

Determine whether the underlined number is a statistic or a parameter. In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is foun
Ann [662]

Answer:

1. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a fixed measure which <u>describes the whole population</u> while a statistic is a <u>characteristic of a sample</u> (which is a portion of the target population).

In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is found that "40%" own a computer.

The study involved the entire population of employees in the college, therefore the result describes the computer owning <u>characteristics of the whole population under study</u>. It is therefore a parameter.

<u>The correct option is 1.</u>

B. The school prom committee sold presale tickets for
Ivan

Answer:

218 students purchased tickets at the dance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of presale tickets

y be the number of tickets sold at the dance

According to given statement;

x+y=334      Eqn 1

18x+24y=7320    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 18

18(x+y=334)

18x+18y=6012      Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(18x+24y)-(18x+18y)=7320-6012

18x+24y-18x-18y=1308

6y=1308

\frac{6y}{6}=\frac{1308}{6}\\y=218

Therefore,

218 students purchased tickets at the dance.
