Answer:

$3.49

Step-by-step explanation:

-The z value is calculated by the formula:

$z=\frac{\bar x -\mu}{\sigma}$

Where $\mu, \sigma$ are the mean and standard deviation respectively and $\bar x$ is the price of the random selection.

#We substitute and solve for $\mu$ :

$z=\frac{\bar x -\mu}{\sigma}\\\\1.6=\frac{4.29-\mu}{0.5}\\\\0.8=4.29-\mu\\\\\mu=3.49$

Hence, the mean price of a box of cereal is $3.49

Clive is making hamburgers for a cookout. How many 1/4- pounds hamburgers can he make from 2 and 3/4 pounds of ground beef

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

11 1/4- pounds hamburgers can be made from 2 and 3/4 pounds of ground beef.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the amount of beef uses in 1 hamburger = 1/4 pound = 0.25 pounds

Total amount of beef available = 2 3/4 pounds

Now, solving the mixed fraction,we get

$2\frac{3}{4} = 2 + \frac{3}{4} = 2 + 0.75= 2.75$

So, the total available beef = 2.75 pounds

Now, $\textrm{ Number of burgers made} = \frac{\textrm{Weight of available beef}}{\textrm{Beef used in 1 hamburger}}$

= $\frac{2.75}{0.25} = 11$

So, <u>the total number of hamburgers made = 11 </u>

Hence, 11 1/4- pounds hamburgers can be made from 2 and 3/4 pounds of ground beef.

The function P(x)equals0.35xnegative 76 models the relationship between the number of pretzels x that a certain vendor sells an

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

$P(X=700) =0.35*700 -76= 169$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following profit function:

$P(X) = 0.35 X -76$

And we are interested on find the profit after selling 700 pretzels, so we just need to replace X=700 into the profit function like this:

$P(X=700) =0.35*700 -76= 169$

The profit function is on the figure attached. We see that for 0<X<217 we have negative profits, and for X>217 we will have positive values for the profit. And also we can see that for X=700 we have a profit of approximately 169.

Find the volume of given prism round to the nearest tenth necessary.

atroni [7]

First, find the area of the base (the triangle) and then multiply it by the height

to find the area of the triangle you need to know the height. cut the triangle in half and you get a right triangle, from there you can use the Pythagorean theorem. remember since you cut the triangle in half you have to divide one of the sides by 2

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (plug in known information)
a^2 + (7.5)^2 = (15)^2 (solve, first solve the exponents)
a^2 + 56.25 = 225 (subtract 56.25 on both sides)
a^2 = 168.75 (solve for a, put 168.75 under the square root)

then once you find the area multiply by the known height
