Gallon of milk: $3.49
3lbs oranges: $1.14(3) = $3.42
Box of cereal: $3.46

Front end estimation is taking the number in front and the rest of the numbers coming after it will be zeroes.

Using front end estimation:
$3.49 => $3.00
$3.42 => $3.00
$3.46 => $3.00

Add all these up; Shen estimated the total cost of the groceries would be $9.00.

Multiply and simplify: sq rt 7x ((sq rt x)-7sq rt. 7)
jarptica [38.1K]
7x(√x - 7√7) Multiply √7x to "√x" and "-7√7" respectively: 
√7x*√x - 7√7*√7x 
First is to simplify: √7x² - 7√7²x 
Extract the squares: x√7 - 7*7√x 

Then, we simplify: x√7 - 49√x 
After simplifying the equation, I got the answer x√7 - 49√x.

A grocery store produce manager is told by a wholesaler that the apples in a large shipment have a mean weight of 6 ounces and a
Andru [333]

Answer:

W= 5.744

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a grocery store produce manager is told by a wholesaler that the apples in a large shipment have a mean weight of 6 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.4 ounces

Sample size n= 49

Margin of error = 0.10 (10% risk )

Let us assume X no of apples having mean weight of 6 oz is N(6,1.4)

Then sample mean will be normal with (6, 1.4/7) = (6,0.2)

(Because sample mean follows normal with std error as std dev /sqrt of sample size)

Now required probability <0.10

i.e.P(\bar X

Since x bar is normal we find z score for

P(Z

From std normal distribution table we find that z = 1.28

Corresponding X score =

W= 6-0.2*1.28\\W= 6-0.256 = 5.744

Find the first three terms of the sequence with nth term 3n-2​
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

To find out the first three terms of 3n - 2 substitute 1 ,2 and 3 into the equation.

so the three terms a

 3(1)-2=1

3(2)-2=6-2=4

3(3)-2=9-2=7

As you can see the sequence goes up in 1,4 and 7.To find out the 10th term you also substitute 10 into the equation so 3(9)-2=18-2=16

so 16 is the tenth term

Hope this helped!
