Let the cost of one pound of candy be x and one pound of mint be y.

3x+2y=10.8 a 
x+3y = 5.35  b 
 B*3 = 3x+9y = 16.05 b
 
b-a = 7y = 16.05-10.8= 5.25
           y = 5.25/7 = 0.75 

The cost per pound of mints is $0.75

The amount of snow fall falling in a certain mountain range is normally distributed with a mean of 74 inches, and a standard dev
Nutka1998 [239]

Given that the sample mean is μ=74 and sample standard deviation σₓ=\frac{σ}{ \sqrt{n}}  =\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}  =2.

Thge Z- score is Z=\frac{76.8-74}{2} =1.4.

Now we use the Z-score to calculate the required probability.

Refer to standard normal distribution table.

The required probability is

P(X>76.8) =P(Z>1.4)=1-P(Z

Aiko is finding the sum (4 + 5i) + (–3 + 7i). She rewrites the sum as (–3 + 7)i + (4 + 5)i. Which statement explains the mathema
yan [13]
In this item, it can be seen that from an expression of,
                                  (4 + 5i) + (-3 + 7i)
Aiko transformed the equation by factoring out the i's from the expression and wrote it as,
                                   (4 + 5)i + (-3 + 7)i
Now this is wrong because i there is not a variable but a notation that 5 and 7 are imaginary numbers. In fact, she cannot factor out the i's because it is not present in both -3 and 4. The answer therefore to this item is the last sentence, "Aiko incorrectly used the distributive property by combining ..."
