Answer:
- 25 pounds cashews
- 15 pounds peanuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of pounds of cashews in the mix. Then 40-c is the number of pounds of peanuts. The total cost of the mix is ...
10c +2(40 -c) = 7(40)
8c +80 = 280 . . . . simplify
c +10 = 35 . . . . . . . divide by 8
c = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10
40-c = 40-25 = 15 . . . . pounds of peanuts
25 pounds of cashews and 15 pounds of peanuts should be used in the mix.
less than; Set A
It is less than, because if you add half of the sum of the least and greatest numbers of the set to the lowest number in the set, you get the median. The median of Set A was 17, and the Median of Set B was 17.5.
Set A is more variable in terms of range, because it has a larger range.

Answer:
The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.
Step-by-step explanation:
A student that purchases 10 tickets out of 2900 has a probability of winning the cruise that can be calculated as:

Each ticket cost $5, so he has spent $50 for the 10 tickets.
Then, the expected value of this operation is equal to the expected value of the earnings (probability of winning the prize multiplied by the value of the prize), minus the costs:

The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.
Answer:
y = -3x/2 + 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, basically what you do is modify it so that y is on one side.
3x+2y = 5
2y = 5-3x
y = (5-3x)/2
y = 5/2 -3x/2
So, the answer is the second option.
