Answer:

One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:

4t + 8a = 10

6t + 14a = 17

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:

12t + 24a = 30

-12t - 28a = -34

Add them together and solve for a:

-4a = -4

a = 1

Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:

4t + 8a = 10

4t + 8(1) = 10

4t + 8 = 10

4t = 2

t = 0.5

So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

The volume of a shampoo filled into a container is uniformly distributed between 370 and 385 milliliters. (a) What are the mean
Olenka [21]

Answer:

(a) mean = 377.5ml. standard deviation = 4.33

(b) 0.333

(c) 384.25 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)The mean:

\mu = \frac{385 + 370}{2} = 377.5 ml

The standard deviation:

\sigma = \frac{385 - 370}{\sqrt{12}} = 4.33

(b)

P(x < 375) = \frac{375 - 370}{385 - 370} = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333

(c)P(x > m) = 0.95

\frac{m - 370}{385 - 370} = 0.95

m - 370 = 14.25

m = 384.25ml

So the volumn of shampoo should be 384.25ml to exceed 95% of containers.
