It sounds like initially we have a total of 18*5 = 90. Then we are adding 5 + 4 +3 +2 +1 to this.
so that gives us 105.

105/5 = 21

Find the perimeter of a square of sides 10.5cm

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Perimeter = 42 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has all equal sides so you would just add 10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 to get 42 cm.

Suppose you buy 4 buckets of apples and 5 buckets of peaches for $64. If you bought 8

Sophie [7]

Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let A represent the cost of one bucket of apple and P represent the cost of one bucket of peaches.

So we have ,

4 buckets of apples and 5 buckets of peaches for $64

8 buckets of apples and 3 buckets of peaches for $72

Writing this in the equation form we have,

4A + 5P = 64

8A + 3P = 72

Step 2:

Solving for the above 2 equations we can get the required costs

Equation 1 is

4A + 5P = 64 , Multiplying this by 2 we have 8A + 10P = 128

Equation 2 = 8A + 3P = 72

Subtracting both we have , 7p = 56 = > P = 8

Substituting this in equation 1 we have

8A + 80 = 128 => A = 6

Hence the cost of one bucket of apple is $6 and the cost of one bucket of apple is $8.

Option D is the correct answer.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the

Pavlova-9 [17]

Make slope intercept
3x - y = 5
3x = y + 5
y = 3x - 5
Parallel = same slope
Slope = 3
Y = 3x + b
Plug in the point
-2 = 3(-1) + b
-2 = -3 + b, b = 1

Solution: y = 3x + 1

A study of peach trees found that the average number of peaches per tree was 725. The standard deviation of the population is 70

TEA [102]

Answer:

She needs to sample 189 trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The standard deviation of the population is 70 peaches per tree.

This means that $\sigma = 70$

How many trees does she need to sample to obtain an average accurate to within 10 peaches per tree?

She needs to sample n trees.

n is found when M = 10. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$10 = 1.96\frac{70}{\sqrt{n}}$

$10\sqrt{n} = 1.96*70$

Dividing both sides by 10:

$\sqrt{n} = 1.96*7$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*7)^2$

$n = 188.2$

Rounding up:

She needs to sample 189 trees.
