goal is that in each of the next 4 years, she will have three times ad many customers as the year before. Betsy shows her calculations in the TABLE below that if she meets this goal each year, she will have 312 customers 4 years from now. is Betsy correct? Use the drop-down menus to explain your reasoning. Expression: (8 + 18) * 3^4
Step 1: 26 * 3^4 <<< TABLE
Step 2: 26 * 12
Answer: 312
Pick the correct answer in parentheses:
Betsy's calculations in Step 1 are ( is she Correct or Incorrect) because... ( .She added incorrectly .She has 26 customers at the end of her second year .She should have multiplied 18 * 3^4 before adding 8)
Besty's calculations in Step 2 are ( is she Correct or Incorrect) Because.... ( .She did not find the correct value of 3^4 .26 * 3^4 = 26 * 12 .She did not apply the order of operations correctly)
If Betsy reaches her goal each year, she will have.. ( .2,106 .312 .1,466) customers 4 years from now.
Approximately 0.2% of the apples will be more than three standard deviations above the mean size. In a bin of 100 apples, 0.2% of 100=0.2% apples, this rounds down to zero apples that size or larger. (In a bin of 500 apples, there could be one apple of that size.)
