Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
225/25 = 21
21+2=23
Since we have the 2.1 next to the parenthesis, we need to first distribute.
2.1 * x & 2.1 * 5
2.1x + 10.5
Then we take that and add the equals seven to the problem to move onto the next step.
2.1x + 10.5 = 7
We must get the 2.1x alone, therefore subtracting the 10.5 as it will also be subtracted on the other side as well.
2.1x + 10.5 = 7
- 10.5 -10.5
2.1x = -3.5
To get the x alone, we must divide both sides by 2.1, therefore removing the 2.1 from the x.
2.1x = -3.5
/2.1 /2.1
x = 1.66666666667

Mean weight of the bag of pears = u = 8 pounds
Standard deviation = s = 0.5 pounds
We have to find what percentage of bags of pears will weigh more than 8.25 pounds. This can be done using the z score.
We have to convert x = 8.25 to z scores, which will be:
z score = 0.5From the z table, the probability of z score being greater than 0.5 is 0.3085
Therefore, the probability of a bag to weigh more than 8.25 pounds is 0.3085
Thus 0.3085 or 31% (rounded to nearest integer) of bags of pears will have weight more than 8.25 pounds at the local market.
