Answer:

$ 2.75 or 275 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Amount of potatoes that Gary can buy = 5.5 pounds

Rate of potatoes per pound = 50 cents

We have to find

How much money Gary have= x = ?

As we know

Total Amount Spent on potatoes = (Rate of potatoes per pound) (Amount of potatoes that Gary can buy)

x = (50) (5.5) = 275 cents

We can convert this amount in dollars by dividing it with 100 as 1 dollar contain 100 cents.

x = 275/100 =  $ 2.75

So Gary has 275 cents or 2.75 dollars

The heights (in cm) and arm spans (in cm) of 31 students were measured. The association between (height) and (arm span) is shown
sergeinik [125]

Answer: Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the association between height and arm span is modeled by the equation

y = 4.5 + 0.977*x

where y is height and x is arm span.

Mike is 172 cm tall, so his arm span is:

172cm = 4.5 + 0.977*x

x = (172 - 4.5)/0.977 = 171.443 cm

and George is 165 cm tall, so his arm span is:

x = (165 - 4.5)/0.977 = 164.278 cm

Then the difference between their arm span is:

171.443cm - 164.278cm = 7.165 cm

So Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.
