X + (x + 2) + ( x + 4) + (x + 6)
----------------------------------- = 15
4
4x + 12
--------- = 15
4
Multiply by 4 on both sides
4x + 12 = 60
subtract 12 from both sides
4x = 48
divide by 4 on each side
x = 12
x + 2 = 14
x + 4 = 16
x + 6 = 18
We cannot calculate the confidence interval without the sample size. However, for the second question, the sample size needed would be 49.
The formula we use is

To find the z-score:
Convert 98% to a decimal: 0.98
Subtract from 1: 1-0.98 = 0.02
Divide by 2: 0.02/2 = 0.01
Subtract from 1: 1-0.01 = 0.99
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this value is closest to a z-score of 2.33.
Using the z-score, our standard deviation (9) and our margin of error (3), we have:
Answer:
$33.81
Step-by-step explanation:
2.49*3 = 7.47 dollars for 3 pounds of strawberries
3.19*2 = 6.38 dollars for 2 pounds of blueberries
4.99*4 = 19.96 dollars for 4 pounds of pineapple
7.47 + 6.38 + 19.96 = 33.81 dollars spent in total
51 snack in all because 18 + 23 = 51
In math, "of" almost always means "times".
"The property" is 7/8 acre.
So "1/4 of the property" means "1/4 times 7/8 acre".
1/4 x 7/8 = (1 x 7) / (4 x 8)
That's 7/32 .
Mr. Lopez hasn't plowed up anything yet, but his plan is to plow up 7/32 acre for his garden.
