Answer:

Your answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

The lowest number is 4, therefore it cannot be C.

Now you'll have to cross out numbers on both sides and your mean will be 9 because you'll have to add 8 and 10 together and 18 divided by 2 is 9.

Next, put a line between 8 and 10, now the 8 side is the lower quartile and the 10 side is the greater quartile.

For the lower quartile, add 7 and 7 together, divide 14 by 2 and the lower quartile is 7.

For the greater quartile, add 11 and 13 together, that's 24, divide 24 by 2 and that's 12.

Lowest: 4

Mean: 9

Lower quartile: 7

Greater quartile: 12

Highest: 14

Therefore your answer is B and not A or C.

A tin of tennis balls costs $6.99, and each tin contains 4

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

About $1.75 per tennis balls

Step-by-step explanation:

A tin of 4 tennis balls costs $6.99. We are asked to find the price of one tennis ball.

We need to find the unit price, or price per ball.

Divide the cost by the number of tennis balls.

cost / tennis balls

cost = $6.99

tennis balls = 4 tennis balls

$6.99 / 4 tennis balls

Divide 6.99 by 4.

$1.7475 / 1 tennis ball

Round to the nearest cent or hundredth. The 7 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 4 to a 5 in the hundredth place.

$1.75 / 1 tennis ball

It would cost approximately $1.75 for one tennis ball.

Giving 100 points.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

1. Cost per customer: 10 + x

Average number of customers: 16 - 2x

$\textsf{2.} \quad -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

3. $10, $11, $12 and $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

$10 = cost of buffet per customer
16 customers choose the buffet per hour
Every $1 increase in the cost of the buffet = loss of 2 customers per hour
$130 = minimum revenue needed per hour

Let x = the number of $1 increases in the cost of the buffet

Part 1

Cost per customer: 10 + x

Average number of customers: 16 - 2x

Part 2

The cost per customer multiplied by the number of customers needs to be at least $130. Therefore, we can use the expressions found in part 1 to write the inequality:

$(10 + x)(16 - 2x)\geq 130$

$\implies 160-20x+16x-2x^2\geq 130$

$\implies -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

Part 3

To determine the possible buffet prices that Noah could charge and still maintain the restaurant owner's revenue requirements, solve the inequality:

$\implies -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

$\implies -2x^2-4x+30\geq 0$

$\implies -2(x^2+2x-15)\geq 0$

$\implies x^2+2x-15\leq 0$

$\implies (x-3)(x+5)\leq 0$

Find the roots by equating to zero:

$\implies (x-3)(x+5)=0$

$x-3=0 \implies x=3$

$x+5=0 \implies x=-5$

Therefore, the roots are x = 3 and x = -5.

Test the roots by choosing a value between the roots and substituting it into the original inequality:

$\textsf{At }x=2: \quad -2(2)^2-4(2)+160=144$

As 144 ≥ 130, the solution to the inequality is between the roots:

-5 ≤ x ≤ 3

To find the range of possible buffet prices Noah could charge and still maintain a minimum revenue of $130, substitute x = 0 and x = 3 into the expression for "cost per customer.

[Please note that we cannot use the negative values of the possible values of x since the question only tells us information about the change in average customers per hour considering an increase in cost. It does not confirm that if the cost is reduced (less than $10) the number of customers increases per hour.]

Cost per customer:

$x =0 \implies 10 + 0=\$10$

$x=3 \implies 10+3=\$13$

Therefore, the possible buffet prices Noah could charge are:

$10, $11, $12 and $13.
