A fruit stand has 200 apples. They order 19 bags with 12 apple each. They sell 42 bags that have 8 apples each. The owner says t

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The owner's estimate is reasonable. They ordered about 240 apples and sold about 320 so they should have about 80 fewer apples than they started with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of apples already available with Owner = 200

Number of bags of apples ordered with 12 apples each = 19

Number of apples ordered = 12 $\times$ 19 = 228

Rounding off 19 to 20:

Number of apples ordered = 12 $\times$ 20 = 240

Around 240 apples were ordered.

Number of bags of apples with 8 apples each, sold = 42

Number of apples sold = 42 $\times$ 8 = 336

Rounding off 42 to 40, number of apples sold = around 320

Therefore, 80 more apples were sold than that of apples bought.

So, according to the estimate, there will be 80 fewer apples left than they started with.

Correct answer is:

The owner's estimate is reasonable. They ordered about 240 apples and sold about 320 so they should have about 80 fewer apples than they started with

A few years ago, a census bureau reported that 67.4% of American families owned their homes. Census data reveal that the owner

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: The rate of home ownership is 67.4%, i.e. p = 0.674.

Hₐ: The rate of home ownership is more than 67.4%, i.e. p > 0.674.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to determine whether the city should continue with plan of offering tax breaks to first-time home buyers in order to encourage people to become homeowners.

It is provided that, a few years ago, a census bureau reported that 67.4% of American families owned their homes.

But the Census data reveal that the ownership rate in one small city is much lower.

So, to improvise this the city council wants to offer tax breaks to first-time home buyers in order to encourage people to become homeowners.

They decide to adopt the plan on a 2-year trial basis and use the data they collect to make a decision about continuing the tax breaks.

To determine whether the city council should continue with the plan or not, the hypothesis can be defined as follows:

H₀: The rate of home ownership is 67.4%, i.e. p = 0.674.

Hₐ: The rate of home ownership is more than 67.4%, i.e. p > 0.674.

I need help on what the area of the shape is because they didn’t tell us how to find it

Leto [7]

Answer:

The area of the shape (trapezoid) is 55 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to get the area of a trapezoid is $((b_{1} +b_{2} )/2)*h$ . b1 is one of the bases, b2 is the other and h is the height.

First, you need to find the average of the bases:

(15+7=22)/2=11

Then, you multiply that by the height.

11*5=55

Lastly, you add the units.

55 square feet is the answer

If a cube has a volume of 8 cm what is it's side length?

lana [24]

Side length: 2 cm.

Volume of a cube:
V=a^3
(where V is volume, and a is side length)

If v=8, the formula would now be 8=a^3

Take the cube root of both sides

a=2.
