He can make 3 batches of soup.

Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.

0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10

We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:

7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5

Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5

Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3

Given data:

Total number of lizards infected = 38

Of the 15 species B lizards 40% survived

For specie C one more survived than died

Out of the 24 lizards that died 1/3 were species A

<u>A) contingency table </u>

attached below

<u>B) Determine the proportion of these lizards in this study that were either specie A or Specie B </u>

P ( A or B ) = ( 8 + 15 ) / 38 = 0.605 ≈ 0.61

<u>C) determine the probability that specie C lizard did not study </u>

P ( not surviving  | C ) = 7 / 15 = 0.466 ≈ 0.47

Find the discount price and subtract from the total to find the sale price.

To find the discount price, multiply 90 b 40% (convert 40% into decimal)

90 x 0.4 = 36

Next, subtract the discount from the total to find the sale price.

90 - 36 =  54

So, the sale price is <u>$54</u>.
