Caleb spent 34.95 on 5 pounds of coffee. how much was the coffee per pound?

1 answer:

4 0

It would be $6.99. All you have to do is divide the total (34.95) by pounds of coffee (5). 34.95 / 5 will give you 6.99! You can check this by doing 6.99 * 5, which would again give you 34.95. Contact me if you need any more help. :^)

Question Help When purchasing bulk orders of batteries, a toy manufacturer uses this acceptance sampling plan: Randomly select

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The probability is $P(X \le 2 ) = 0.9072$

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject $(100 -90.72) = 9.2\%$ of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 36

The proportion that did not meet the requirement is $p = 0.03$

Generally the probability that the whole shipment is accepted is equivalent to the probability that there is at most 2 batteries that do not meet the requirement , this is mathematically represented as

$P(X \le 2 ) = [ P(X = 0 ) + P(X = 1 ) + P(X = 0)]$

=> $P(X \le 2 ) = [ [^{n}C_0 * (p)^{0} *(1-p)^{n-0} ] + [^{n}C_1 * (p)^{1} *(1-p)^{n-1} ] + [^{n}C_2 * (p)^{2} *(1-p)^{n-2} ]]$

Here C stands for Combination (so we will be making the combination function in our calculators )

=> $P(X \le 2 ) = [ [^{36}C_0 * (0.03)^{0} *(1-0.03)^{36-0} ] + [^{36}C_1 * (0.03)^{1} *(1-0.03)^{36-1} ] + [^{36}C_2 * (0.03)^{2} *(1-0.03)^{36-2} ]]$

=> $P(X \le 2 ) = [ [1 * 1 * 0.3340 ] + [36* 0.03 *0.3444 ] + [630 * 0.0009 *(0.355 ]]$

=> $P(X \le 2 ) = 0.9072$

The company will accept 90.72% of the shipment and will reject $(100 -90.72) = 9.2\%$ of the shipment , so many of the shipment are rejected

One shelf will hold 45 pounds of boxes. If you have to store 270 pounds of boxes, how many shelves will you need?

arlik [135]

Hi!

We will solve this using ratios, like this:

1 shelf holds 45 pounds

x shelves hold 270 pounds

______________________

x = (270*1)/45

x = 270/45

x = 6

6 shelves will be needed to hold 270 pounds of boxes.

Hope this helps!

Express your final answer in simplest form 3/5 + -7/8

frez [133]

Answer:

- 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

you first change the fractions numbers in to decimal form

so; 2/5 = 0.4

-7/8 = - 0.875

hence; 0.4 + (-0.875)

= - 0.475

in to its simplest form = - 0.5

the answer is - 0.5
