Answer:
50 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Before drying, the cranberries have ...
(100% -99%)(100 lb) = 1 lb
of "meat."
After drying, that represents (100% -98%) = 2% of the total weight. Then the total weight is ...
1 lb = 2%·x
x = (1 lb)/0.02 = 50 lb
The dried cranberries will weigh 50 lb.

Answer:
the sum of 2 consecutive even integers is 66.
Step-by-step explanation:
This means that if one integers is x, the other must be either x-2 or x+2. Therefore, we can write 6=x+(×-2)=2×2. Solving for x, we can find ×=34. this means that the other integer is 34-2=32. indeed, 32+34=66, and done hope this helped C:
Answer:
option 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
alright, ima explain each option.
1. "smallest odd numbers" 2 is an even number. that's out of the playing field.
2. "add up to 10" sure, they do add up to 10, but finding prime and composite numbers are all about division and multiplication.
3. this is true. 2, 3, and 5 are all prime numbers, and they have the nice divisibility rules. [ for 2, it has to be even, for 5, it has to end in 0 or 5, and 3 has to have the sum of its digits being divisible by 3. ]
4. they do multiply to 30, but this does not help break the composite numbers down.
5. we cannot make every number with just these. we can not multiply any other whole number to get 7 for per example, because it's a prime number.

no the firm will not do the investment. because if the firm borrows the money & invest it in the project then the return will be 6% but the cost is 8%. so it will lose 2%.
it also should not invest his own money on the project to get get the 6% return. because he could have loan the money to someone else & get 8% return. therefore his opportunity cost of investing the money is greater than the return.
therefore he should not make the investment .
