Answer is 11.5

Total weight of the shipment is 65, and 1 envelope weight 7.5 that’s means
65-7.5= 57.5

As we are looking for each box weight in pounds so you divided 57.5/5 =11.50

Hope this helps!

Initial weight= 65 lbs total


STEP 1
Subtract weight of envelope from total weight

65 - 7.5= 57.5 lbs for 5 boxes


STEP 2
Divide remaining weight equally into 5 parts (5 boxes of equal weight)

57.5 ÷ 5= 11.5 lbs per box


ANSWER: Each box weighs (B) 11.5 pounds.

Hope this helps! :)

Which function represents the sequence?
Tom [10]

Answer: SECOND OPTION

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute any value of <em>n</em> shown in the table attached into each function given in the options, and observe if you obtain the value of a_n shown in the table.

Let's substitute n=1 (According to the table, you need to obtain a_n=3):

<u>For the first option:</u>

f(1)=1+3=4

<u>For the second option:</u>

f(1)=7(1)-4=3  THIS IS THE FUNCTION

<u>For the third option:</u>

f(1)=3(1)+7=10

 <u>For the fourth option:</u>

f(1)=1+7=8

Therefore, the answer is the second option.

Terrence has 64 stamps. Of his stamps, 12 are from Europe and 1/4 are from Africa. The rest are from Asia. What fraction of his
Tamiku [17]
16 of his stamps are from Africa, since 1/4 of 64 is 16. If I subtract his 28 from Europe and Africa (16 plus 12 equals 28) from his original 64, I am left with 36 stamps. 36/64 is simplified to 9/16. So 9/16 of Terrence's stamps are from Asia.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The survey results will be inaccurate since the entire sample of the population was eating at the same restaurant.

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing a survey you must make sure it is unbiased by asking a variety of people for example if you are wondering what is the favorite class at school you have to ask a certain amount of people from each class because if you ask only people from P.E the answer more than likely will be P.E or if u ask 3 people from Art and 17 from P.E your answer will properly be P.E. Make sense?
