Answer:

Unit price of  potatoes = $1.50.

Unit price of onions - $3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is

6p + 3n = 18

n = 2p

Substitute  n = 2p in the first equation:

6p + 3(2p) = 18

6p + 6p = 18

12p= 18

p = 18/12 = $1.50 .

Now plug p = 1.50 into the second equation:

n = 2*1.50 = $3.

The amount of soda a dispensing machine pours into a 12-ounce can of soda follows a normal distribution with a mean of 12.30 oun
Ugo [173]

Answer: A) .1587

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The amount of soda a dispensing machine pours into a 12-ounce can of soda follows a normal distribution with a mean of 12.30 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.20 ounce.

i.e. \mu=12.30 and \sigma=0.20

Let x denotes the amount of soda in any can.

Every can that has more than 12.50 ounces of soda poured into it must go through a special cleaning process before it can be sold.

Then, the probability that a randomly selected can will need to go through the mentioned process =  probability that a randomly selected can has more than 12.50 ounces of soda poured into it =

P(x>12.50)=1-P(x\leq12.50)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{12.50-12.30}{0.20})\\\\=1-P(z\leq1)\ \ [\because z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-0.8413\ \ \ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\=0.1587

Hence, the required probability= A) 0.1587
