Answer:

  Yes, she can.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 7/16 is less than 3 (less than 2 1/2, actually)

1 7/8 is almost 2,

So the sum will be less than 2 1/2 + 2 + 1/2 = 5. This sum is less than 6, so Gina can ship as she wants.

_____

The actual total weight is 4 13/16 pounds,

In a random sample of 5 residents of the state of Texas, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.9 pounds with a standa
sammy [17]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2><h2 />

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x} \pm\ t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n= 5, since n<30 , so the test we use here is t-test.

Sample mean : \overline{x}=1.9\text{ pounds}

Standard deviation: \sigma=0.89\text{ pounds}

Significance level : 1-\alpha:1-0.99=0.01

By using the standard normal distribution table , the critical value corresponds to the given significance level will be :-

t_{n-1,\alpha/2}=t_{5-1,0.01/2}=t_{4,0.005}=4.604

Now, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas will be :-

1.9\pm\ (4.604)\dfrac{0.89}{\sqrt{5}}\\\\\approx1.9\pm1.832\\\\=(1.9-1.832,1.9+1.832)=(0.068,\ 3.732)

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas  = (0.068, 3.732)

a small bar of gold is a rectangular prism that measures 40 millimeters by 25 millimeters by 2 millimeters. one cubic millimeter
guajiro [1.7K]
Step One 
Find the Volume in ccs.

V= l*w*h
l =40 mm
w = 25 mm
h = 2 mm
V = 40*35 * 2
V = 2800 mm^3

Step Two
Find the weight
1  mm^3 = 0.0005
2800 mm^3 = x   <<<<< answer 1

\frac{1}{2800} =  \frac{0.0005}{x}   Cross multiply.

1x = 2800 * 0.0005
x = 1.4 ounces.  <<<<< answer 2
