Answer:

  440 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the total weight to the weight of apples is ...

  (4 + 3 + 4) : 4 = 11/4

So, the total weight will be ...

  total weight = (total weight)/(apple weight) × (apple weight) = (11/4)×(160 lb)

  total weight = 440 lb

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

The problem doesn't say what the ratio is. We have to assume it is the ratio of weights. (It could be the ratios by volume, sugar content, cost, or any of a number of other factors.)

To test μ for an x distribution that is mound-shaped using sample size n ≥ 30, how do you decide whether to use the normal or st
Luden [163]
Answer:
Use the normal distribution if the population standard deviation is known.
Use the student's t distribution when the population standard deviation is unknown.

Explanation:
A mound-shaped distribution refers to the normal distribution.
A good sample size for testing against the normal distribution should be
n >= 30.
The condition for the sample size is satisfied.
However, we are not given the population standard deviation, therefore it is assumed to be unknown.
Therefore the student's t distribution should be used.
