Answer:

Steak sandwich = x = 4

Cheese fries = y = 1.75

Taco salad = z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Steak sandwich = x

Cheese fries = y

Taco salad = z

This week:

x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 - - - - (1)

Last week :

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - - (2)

Two weeks ago :

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

Taking (1) and (2)

x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 ___(1)

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 ___(2)

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 1 and subtract

2x + 4y + 4z = 23

2x + 3y + z = 15.25

_______________

y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4)

Taking (2) and (3)

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - (2)

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 2 and subtract

2x + 3y + z = 15.25

2x + 8y + 2z = 26

______________

-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5)

Lets solve (4) and (5)

y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4) - - - multiply by 5

-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5) - - - multiply by 1

Then add the result :

5y + 15z = 38.75

-5y - z = - 10.75

____________

14z = 28

z = 28 / 14

z = 2

To find y ; put z = 2 in (4)

y + 3z = 7.75

y + 3(2) = 7.75

y + 6 = 7.75

y = 7.75 - 6

y = 1.75

From equation 3 ;

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

x + 4(1.75) + 2 = 13

x + 7 + 2 = 13

x + 9 = 13

x = 13 - 9

x = 4

Hence,

Steak sandwich = x = 4

Cheese fries = y = 1.75

Taco salad = z = 2

A marketing consultant observed 40 consecutive shoppers to estimate the average money spent by shoppers in a supermarket store.
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

0.998 is the probability that the average money spent by  a sample of 40 shoppers is within $10 of the actual population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Standard Deviation, σ = $21.51

We are given that the distribution of average money spend is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

We have to find:

P( average money spent is within $10 of the actual population mean.)

= P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{10\times \sqrt{40}}{21.51}}) = P(z \leq 2.94)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(z \leq 2.94) = 0.998

The height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base.
Ber [7]

Let x represent radius of circle.

We have been given that the height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base. So height of cylinder would be 2x.

Now we will use volume of cylinder formula to our given problem.

V=\pi r^2h, where,

r = Radius of base of cylinder,

h = Height of cylinder.

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

V=\pi\cdot x^2\cdot 2x

V=2x^3\pi

Therefore, our required volume expression would be 2x^3\pi.

Add 212+(−13) . Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.
nordsb [41]

The value of the given expression after addition is 199 and this can not written as a mixed number in the simplest form.

According to the question,

We have the following expression:

212+(-13)

Now, we know that the multiplication of one negative and one positive integers is always positive.

So, we have the following expression:

212-13

199

Now, this number is whole number and it can not be written as a mixed number. It could only have been written as a mixed number when the result would have been in a fraction.

Hence, the value of the given expression after addition is 199 and this can not written as a mixed number in the simplest form.
