Luke was out of cereal for breakfast. He walked to the grocery store to buy his favorite, Honey Nut Cheerios. While looking at t

he cereal, he noticed all the different box sizes and different prices. A giant "Family Size" box contained 14.7 oz and cost $5.99. A small, individual size contained 1.5 oz and cost $1.89. He wanted to get the most "bang for his buck." Which choice is the better buy? In other words, which choice is cheaper per ounce? Which one should he buy and why?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I had to find how much it is per ounce and for the small box it cost $1.25 per ounce and for the family size it cost $0.41 which is less than $1.25 so the answer would be the family size of Honey Nut Cheerios

Answer:

a) P(x < 5) = 0.7291

b) P(x ≥ 3) = 0.9664

c) P(3 < x < 4) = 0.2373

d) 5.35 million tons of cargo in a week will require the port to extend operating hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem with

Mean = μ = 4.5 million tons of cargo per week

Standard deviation = σ = 0.82 million

a) The probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week

= P(x < 5)

We first standardize/normalize 5.

The standardized score of any value is the value minus the mean divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (5 - 4.5)/0.82 = 0.61

To determine the probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week

P(x < 5) = P(z < 0.61)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(x < 5) = P(z < 0.61) = 0.72907 = 0.7291 to 4 d.p

b) The probability that the port handles 3 or more million tons of cargo per week?

P(x ≥ 3)

We first standardize/normalize 3.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (3 - 4.5)/0.82 = -1.83

To determine the probability that the port handles less than 3 or more million tons of cargo per week

P(x ≥ 3) = P(z ≥ -1.83)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(x ≥ 3) = P(z ≥ -1.83)

= 1 - P(z < -1.83)

= 1 - 0.03362

= 0.96638 = 0.9664

c) The probability that the port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week = P(3 < x < 4)

We first standardize/normalize 3 and 4.

For 3 million

z = (x - μ)/σ = (3 - 4.5)/0.82 = -1.83

For 4 million

z = (x - μ)/σ = (4 - 4.5)/0.82 = -0.61

To determine the probability that the port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week

P(3 < x < 4) = P(-1.83 < z < -0.61)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(3 < x < 4) = P(-1.83 < z < -0.61)

= P(z < -0.61) - P(z < -1.83)

= 0.27093 - 0.03362

= 0.23731 = 0.2373 to 4 d.p

d) Assume that 85% of the time the port can handle the weekly cargo volume without extending operating hours. What is the number of tons of cargo per week that will require the port to extend its operating hours?

Let x' represent the required number of tons of cargo thay will require the port to extend its operating hours.

Let its z-score be z'

P(x < x') = P(z < z') = 85% = 0.85

Using the normal distribution table,

z' = 1.036

z' = (x' - μ)/σ

1.036 = (x' - 4.5)/0.82

x' - 4.5 = (0.82 × 1.036) = 0.84952

x' = 0.84952 + 4.5 = 5.34952 = 5.35 to 2 d.p

Therefore, 5.35 million tons of cargo in a week will require the port to extend its operating hours.

Hope this Helps!!!

These are 8 questions and 8 answers:

1) Quesion 1:

 9+√2
---------
 4 - √7

Answer: the third option:

36 + 9√7 + 4√2 + √14
-----------------------------
               9

Explanation:

Multiply both numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

The conjugate of 4 - √7 = 4 + √7

=>

\frac{9+ \sqrt{2} }{4- \sqrt{7} } . \frac{4+ \sqrt{7} }{4+ \sqrt{7} } =  \frac{(9)(4)+9 \sqrt{7}+4 \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} . \sqrt{7}  }{(4)^2-( \sqrt{7})^2 } =

= \frac{36+9 \sqrt{7} +4 \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{14} }{16-7}

2) Question 2: sum

5x (\sqrt[3]{x^2y})+2( \sqrt[3]{x^5y})

Answer: fourth option

7x( \sqrt[3]{x^2y} )

Explanation:

Take x^5 out of the second radical which will result in a like term of the first radical:

5x( \sqrt[3]{x^2y} )+2( \sqrt[3]{x^5y}) =5x( \sqrt[3]{x^2y} )+2x( \sqrt[3]{x^2y})=7x( \sqrt[3]{x^2y})

which is the fourth option

3) Question 3. Which expression is equivalent to:

\frac{ \sqrt{10} }{ \sqrt[4]{8} }

Answer: the first option

Explanation

\frac{ \sqrt{10} }{ \sqrt[4]{8} } = \frac{ \sqrt[4]{10^2} }{ \sqrt[4]{8} } = \frac{ \sqrt[4]{100} }{ \sqrt[4]{8} } .  \frac{ \sqrt[4]{8^3} }{ \sqrt[4]{8^3} }  = \frac{ \sqrt[4]{(100)(512)} }{8} = \frac{ \sqrt[4]{51200} }{8} = \frac{4 \sqrt[4]{200} }{8} = \frac{ \sqrt[4]{200} }{2}

4) Question 4 What is the simplest form?

Answer: the second option

Explanation:

\sqrt[4]{81x^8y^5}=x^2 y\sqrt[4]{3^4y}  =3x^2y \sqrt[4]{y}

5) Question 5 Product

Answer: the fourth option:

104x^4+16x^4 \sqrt{30} [/tex]\\Explanation:\\Use the square of a binomial product: (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2\\[tex](4x \sqrt{5x^2} )^2+2(4x \sqrt{5x^2})(2x^2 \sqrt{6}) +(2x^2 \sqrt{6} )^2=

=16x^2(5x^2)+16x^4( \sqrt{30} )+4x^4(6)=80x^4+16x^4  \sqrt{30} +24x^4=

=104x^4+16x^4 \sqrt{30}

which is the fourth option.

6) Question 6 Product

Answer: fourth option

Explanation:

\sqrt[3]{16x^7} . \sqrt[3]{12x^9} = \sqrt[3]{2^4.2^2.3x^7x^9} =  \sqrt[3]{2^6.3.x^{16}}=2^2 x^5 \sqrt[3]{3x} =4 x^5\sqrt[3]{3x}

which is the fourth option.

7) Question 7. Simplified form of 2√18 + 3√2 + √162

Answer: 18√2

Explanation:

2 \sqrt{18}+3 \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{162}=2(3) \sqrt{2}  + 3 \sqrt{2} +9 \sqrt{2} =18 \sqrt{2}

which is the second option.

8) Question 8 which function is undefined for x = 0.

Answer: second option y = √ (x - 2)

Explanation.

The square root function is not defined for negative values.

When x = 0, x - 2 = -2, whose square root is not defined.

Therefore, the square root of x - 2 is not defined for x = 0.

I need help i do not understand this question
Anika [276]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

+2


Discussion:

-8 (17 - 12) / ( -2 (8 - (-2)) )  -

= -8 ( 5) / ( -2 ( 8+2))                          as 17 -12 = 5 and -(-2) = +2

= -40/ ( -2 (10))

= -40/(-20) =

= +2

which is the third choice.



Thank you,

The tennis team is selling tickets to wash for six dollars. And they don't do not sell very much tickets, the team decreases the
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The new cost of tickets after decrease of price at 23 % rate is $ 4.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The initial cost of the selling tickets = $ 6

Let The final cost of selling tickets = $ x

The rate of decrease of ticket price = 23 %

Now,

The final cost of tickets = initial cost of tickets × ( 1 - \dfrac{\textrm rate}{100} )

or, $ x = $ 6 × ( 1 - \dfrac{\textrm 23}{100} )

or, x = $ 6 × \frac{77}{100}

∴ x = $ 4.62

So decrease price = x = $ 4.62

Hence The new cost of tickets after decrease of price at 23 % rate is $ 4.62 Answer
