Answer:
0.4 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
In a day
Miguel is to feed Chester ,
Chester can eat 3/4 of an ounce for each pound of body weight.
Chester weighs 6.8 pounds
Hence:
1 pound = 3/4 ounce
6.8 pounds = x ounces
Cross Multiply
x = 6.8 × (3/4) ounces
x = 5.1 ounces
Chester is to be fed 5.1 ounces of food each day.
The amount of food left after 1 day
= 5.5 ounces - 5.1 ounces
= 0.4 ounces
Hence, 0.4 ounces of food is left after 1 day
A coefficient multiplies a variable. The 5 is a coefficient.
A variable is a letter that stands for a number. The x is a variable.
A base is a number that is raised to an exponent. The 2 is a base.
An exponent is what you raise a base to. The 3 is an exponent.
1/4 (a) = (2/3)
a = (2/3) * (4)
a=8/3
a= 2 2/3
SOLUTION:
A normal distribution would model this situation because the distribution is approximately symmetrical, thus the mean, median and mode are approximately the same and the population size is large ( greater than 30).
For every 4 picks there is 1 orange pick, so 12/4 should be fine
