0.14x + 0.07(280-x) = 0.08*280

0.14x + 19.6-0.07x = 22.4

0.07x + 19.6 = 22.4

0.07x = 2.8
x = 2.8 / 0.07 = 40
 x = 40 pounds of Soybean
280 -40 = 240 of cornmeal

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

50 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

100 percent divided by 6 (the amount of data) is 16 2/3.

Each number represents 16 2/3 percent.

3 of the numbers are either 2 or 9.

16 2/3x3=50.001

The final answer is a 50% probability.
