I would say it’s the first one because if you round it it is going to be approximately 12 so that is my reason and also why it isn’t number two is because if you subtract 13.26 and 7.98 you get 5. Something so that’s why

Lily bought 25.29 pounds of grapefruit. The lightest grapefruit weighed 1.4 pounds. The heaviest grapefruit weighed 1.6 pounds.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven that the lightest is 1.4 and the heaviest is 1.6, this implies that ALL the fruit must weigh between 1.4 and 1.6.

This also implies that the average weight of the fruit must also be between 1.4 lb and 1.6 lb.

recall that : average weight = total weight / number of fruit

we are given than total weight = 25.29 lb, so

average weight = 25.29 / number of fruit

Just go down the choices and test which choice gives an average weight between 1.4 and 1.6 lbs.

Choice A: number of fruit = 19

average = 25.29 / 19 = 1.33 (outside of range, not the answer)

Choice B: number of fruit = 17

average = 25.29 / 17 =1.49 (within range , possible answer)

Choice C: number of fruit = 10

average = 25.29 / 10 = 2.529 (outside of range, not the answer)

Choice D: number of fruit = 50

average = 25.29 / 50 = 0.5058 (outside of range, not the answer)

From the above, we can see that only B gives an average between 1.4 and 1.6 lb.

There are nine water bottles in a fridge. Three full boxes are added. Two more boxes are added, both of which have one fewer bot

Degger [83]

The number of bottles in a full box is 12.

Explanation

Suppose, the number of bottles in a full box is $x$

So, the number of bottles in three full boxes $=3x$

Now, two more boxes are added, both of which have one fewer bottle than the other three. So, the number of bottles in these two boxes $= 2(x-1)$

As there were 9 bottles initially and now there are 67 bottles in the fridge, so the equation will be....

$9+3x+2(x-1)=67\\ \\ 9+3x+2x-2=67\\ \\ 5x+7=67\\ \\ 5x=67-7\\ \\ 5x=60\\ \\ x=\frac{60}{5}=12$

Thus, the number of bottles in a full box is 12.

A piece of wire measuring 20 feet is attached to a telephone pole as a guy wire. The distance along the ground from the bottom o

dem82 [27]

Answer: Height at which the wire is attached to the pole is 12 feet.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of the wire = 20 feet

Let the height at which wire is attached to the pole be h

and distance along the ground from the bottom of the pole to the end of the wire be x+4

Now, it forms a right angle triangle so, we can apply "Pythagorus theorem".

$H^2=B^2+P^2\\\\20^2=x^2+(x+4)^2\\\\400=x^2+x^2+8x+16\\\\400=2x^2+8x+16\\\\400=2(x^2+4x+8)\\\\200=x^2+4x+8\\\\x^2+4x-192=0\\\\x^2+16x-12x-192=0\\\\x(x+16)-12(x+16)=0\\\\(x+16)(x-12)=0\\\\x=-16\ and\ 12$
