Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: d. 0.55
Step-by-step explanation:
The given probability distribution:
Number of Goals 0 1 2 3 4
Probability .05 .15 .35 .30 .15
The probability that in a given game the Lions will score less than 3 goals
= probability that in a given game the Lions will score less than or equal to 2
= 0.5+0.15+0.35
= 0.55
Hence, the correct option is d. 0.55
The outlier is 71.
An outlier in a set of data is the one that is significantly lower or higher than the average of the totals. Whichever number skews the average is the outlier.
In this case, it's 71.

Answer:
he grows by 5 cm every year between 1999 and 2006
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a arithmetic progression problem with the formula;
T_n = a + (n - 1)d
We are told that In 1999 Daniel was 146 cm tall. He grew to be 176 cm by the year 2006.
Thus;
a = 146
d = 2006 - 1999 = 7
Thus;
176 = 146 + (7 - 1)d
176 - 146 = 6d
30 = 6d
d = 30/6
d = 5 cm
Thus, he grows by 5 cm every year between 1999 and 2006
