A nut mixture of almonds and cashew nuts at a small fair is $1.00 per pound of almonds and $3.55 per pound of cashew nuts. Over

the entire day, 65 pounds of the nut mixture were sold for $189.95. If p is the number almonds and n is the number of cashew nuts, then the system of equations that models this scenario is: p+n=65p+3.55n=189.95p+n=65p+3.55n=189.95 Determine the correct description and amount of pounds for almonds and cashew nuts that were sold. A (26.0, 39.0)There were 26.0 pounds of almonds and 39.0 pounds of cashew nuts sold at the fair. B (16.0, 49.0)There were 16.0 pounds of almonds and 49.0 pounds of cashew nuts sold at the fair. C (49.0, 16.0)There were 49.0 pounds of almonds and 16.0 pounds of cashew nuts sold at the fair. D (39.0, 26.0)There were 39.0 pounds of almonds and 26.0 pounds of cashew nuts sold at the fair.

Answer:

B. (16.0, 49.0) There were 16.0 pounds of almonds and 49.0 pounds of cashew nuts sold at the fair.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, p represents the number of pounds of almond and n be the number of pounds of cashew nuts,

Since, total nuts = 65

⇒ p + n = 65 ----(1)

Also, the total spending is $ 189.95 in which almond costs $ 1.00 per pounds and cashew costs $ 3.55 per pound,

⇒ p + 3.55n = 189.95 -----(2)

Equation (1) - equation (2),

2.55n = 124.95

⇒ n = 49

From equation (1),

p + 49 = 65 ⇒ p = 16

Hence, there are 16 pounds of almonds and 49 pounds of cashew.

What is 2.75 rounded to the nearest hundredth
almond37 [142]
Well first off we need to know how to round or what rounding is. Rounding is the approximation of numbers usually decimals to a approximate cut off number for numbers that are too long or hard to work with/remember. To round a number you simply need to look at the number behind that number whether its a whole number (integer) or a decimal, either one will work. Now continuing on (on) how to round the number, look at the number after it and if it is 5 or above the number rounds up +1 and all numbers behind that turn to 0. For example 3.25500 round to the nearest hundredth, 3.26(000). Now if the number is 4 or smaller then you don't do anything at all (no rounding) and all the numbers after the being rounded number turn to 0's like so, 3.254(0000) rounded to the nearest hundredth, 3.25(00000). So now that we know how to round and what rounding is we need to look at are hundredth place on are number here and see what the next number is after that, in this case it is 0 because there is no stated number there the default next number is 0 like so,
2.750 and because 0 is under 5 we don't do any rounding at all here and just leave it as it is. So 2.75 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 2.75

A TV set contains five circuit boards of type A, five of type B, and four of type C. The probability of failing in its first 500
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

0.903264

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a TV set contains five circuit boards of type A, five of type B, and four of type C. The probability of failing in its first 5000 hours of use is 0.03 for a type A circuit board, 0.04 for a type B circuit board, and 0.03 for a type C circuit board.

Let A' = the event that A fails, B' =  B fails and C'= C fails.

Probability that no circuit board fails = Prob (A'B'C')

= P(A')P(B')P(C')  (since A,B, C are independent, their complements are independent

= (1-0.03)(1-0.04)(1-0.03)

= 0.903264

State the additive property of zero using the variable b.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a variable b

We have to state the additive property of zero using the variable b.

Additive property of zero: It states that when any number b is added to zero then we get  sum is equal to number itself.

Mathematical representation:

b+0=0+b=b

Suppose, a number  b=9

Then, 9+0=9

0+9=9

This property is called additive property of zero because when 9 is added to 0 then we get sum equals to 9.

Each year, all final year students take a mathematics exam. It is hypothesized that the population mean score for this test is 8
drek231 [11]

Answer:

95% Confidence interval:  (96.06,103.94)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 85

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 100

Sample size, n = 30

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 11

95% Confidence interval:

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

100 \pm 1.96(\frac{11}{\sqrt{30}} ) = 100 \pm 3.94= (96.06,103.94)

(96.06,103.94) is the 95% confidence interval for  the population mean test score.
