To find the unit price of each bag, divide each cost by the weight to find the cost of shrimp per pound.

For the 2.12 pound bag: 14.75 / 2.12 =  $6.96 (rounded to the nearest cent)

For the 3.77 pound bag: 24.99 / 3.77 = $6.63 (rounded to the nearest cent)

You can tell that buying the 3.77 pound bag is better based on the unit price because of 6.63 < 6.96.

2.12 pound = $14.75
1 pound = $14.75 ÷ 2.12 = $6.96

3.77 pound = $24.99 
1 pound = $24.99 ÷ 3.77 = $6.63

The store that Salma visited on the second week has a better price.

Jeff is four years less than twice his nephew's
ira [324]

Answer:

His nephew would be 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should model the word problem into an equation. This gives you the equation 18=2x-4. Then, you add 4 to both sides of the equation, getting 22=2x. Then, you divide both sides by two, which equals 11, which shows that his nephew is 11 years old. Hope this helped!

According to a report from the United States Environmental Protection Agency, burning one gallon of gasoline typically emits abo
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

B. The mean amount of CO_2 emitted by the new fuel is actually lower than 89 kg but they fall to conclude it is lower than 89 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A Type II error is the failure to reject a false null hypothesis.

Given the null and alternate hypothesis of a fuel company which wants to test a new type of gasoline designed to have lower CO_2 emissions.:

H_0: \mu = 8.9 kg\\H_a: \mu < 8.9 kg \\\text{ (where \mu is the mean amount of CO_2 emitted by burning one gallon of this new gasoline)}

where \mu is the mean amount of CO_2 emitted by burning one gallon of this new gasoline.

If the null hypothesis is false, then:

H_a: \mu < 8.9 kg

A rejection of the alternate hypothesis above will be a Type II error.

Therefore:

The Type II error is: (B) The mean amount of CO_2  emitted by the new fuel is actually lower than 89 kg but they fall to conclude it is lower than 89 kg.

Look at the picture below for the info

Answer:

x = -3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(2x-1) = -1/7 -4/7

Combine like terms

1/2(2x-1) = -5/7

Multiply each side by 2

2*1/2(2x-1) = -5/7*2

2x-1 = -10/7

Add 1 to each side

2x-1+1 = -10/7 +1

2x = -10/7 +7/7

2x = -3/7

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -3/7 *1/2

x = -3/14
