Answer: 56 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample of 25 oranges, 2 oranges weigh 5 ounces.

Proportionally represented, that would be:

= 2 / 25

Assuming the 25 is representative for all 700 oranges, the number of oranges that can be expected to weigh 5 ounces from the shipment is:

= Proportion of 5 ounces oranges from sample * Total number of oranges

= 2/25 * 700

= 56 oranges

Sylvie finds the solution to the system of equations by graphing. y = x + 1 and y = x – 1 Which graph shows the solution to Sylv
Furkat [3]
Graphs of y = x+- 1 and of y = x - 1 are shown in the figure below.
The intersection of the two graphs is the solution for the two equations.

Answer:
There is no solution.

Explanation:
It is clear that the two lines are parallel and will never intersect.

Note that the equation for a straight line is of the form
y = mx + b
where
m = slope,
b = y-intercept.

y = x + 1 has slope of m=1.
y = x - 1 has slope of m=1.
The two slopes are equal.
Because parallel lines do not intercept, there is no solution.

If a radioactive isotope has a half-life of 6 hours and 12 milligrams is initially present, how much will
Serhud [2]

Answer:0.75 milligrams will  be present in 24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

The formula for radioactive decay can be written as

N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)

where

No= The amount of the radioactive substance at time=0=milligrams

t 1/2= the half-life= 6 hours

t=24 hours

N(t) = the amount at time t

Step 2--- Solving

N(t)=No (1/2)^(t/t 1/2)

=N(t)=12 x ( 1/2) ^ (24/6)

= 12 x (1/2) ^4

= 12 x 0.0625

= 0.75 milligrams

14. Sharon earns $25 per item she sells plus a base salary of $100 per week. Write and solve an inequality to find how many item
kozerog [31]
Amount earned by Sharon per item sold = $25
Base salary of Sharon per week = $100
Amount that needs to be earned by Sharon per week = $700
Let us assume the number of items sold by Sharon per week = x
Then
100 + 25x = 700
25x = 700 - 100
25x = 600
x = 600/25
   = 24
So Sharon needs to sell 24 items to earn a total of $700 per week. I hope you have understood the method of solving such problems.
