Answer:

$0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each pounds of banana = $0.80

Number of pounds of banana = 2 1/4 pounds

Total cost of banana = $0.80 × 2 1/4 pounds

= 0.80 × 9/4

= 0.80 × 2.25

= 1.8

Total cost of banana = $1.8

Cost of each pounds of strawberry = $1.10

Number of pounds of strawberry = 1 1/2 pounds

Total cost of strawberry = $1.10 × 1 1/2 pounds

= 1.10 × 3/2

= 1.10 × 1.5

= 1.65

Total cost of strawberry = $1.65

How much more did Megan spend on bananas than on strawberries?

Total cost of banana - Total cost of strawberry

= $1.8 - $1.65

= $0.15

Answer:

$0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each pounds of banana = $0.80

Number of pounds of banana = 2 1/4 pounds

Total cost of banana = $0.80 × 2 1/4 pounds

= 0.80 × 9/4

= 0.80 × 2.25

= 1.8

Total cost of banana = $1.8

Cost of each pounds of strawberry = $1.10

Number of pounds of strawberry = 1 1/2 pounds

Total cost of strawberry = $1.10 × 1 1/2 pounds

= 1.10 × 3/2

= 1.10 × 1.5

= 1.65

Total cost of strawberry = $1.65

How much more did Megan spend on bananas than on strawberries?

Total cost of banana - Total cost of strawberry

= $1.8 - $1.65

= $0.15

Suppose the average price for new cars in 2012 has a mean of $30,100 and a standard deviation of $5,600. Based on this informati
KatRina [158]

Answer:

($13,300,$46,900)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in he question:

Mean, μ = $30,100

Standard Deviation, σ = $5,600

Chebyshev's Theorem:

  • According to  theorem atleast 1 - \dfrac{1}{k^2}  percent of data lies within 2 standard deviations of mean.
  • For k = 3,

1 -\dfrac{1}{(3)^2} = 0.889 \approx 89\%

Thus, 89% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.

\mu - 3(\sigma) = 30100 - 3(5600) = 13300\\\mu + 3(\sigma) = 30100 + 3(5600) = 46900

Thus, we expect at least 89% of new car prices to fall within ($13,300,$46,900)

A bag contains 3 triangles, 4 squares, 5 pentagons, and 6 hexagons. If one shape is randomly chosen, what is the probability tha
e-lub [12.9K]

I’d say that it’s definitely random choice for the squares, pentagons, and hexagons. But, if we are looking at how common it would be between the 3 of them, then I would say that it would be one of the hexagons, because there are more hexagons than any of the other shapes in the bag.

There are 4 semi- trailer truck park a line at the stop. After the first truck, each in the line weights 2 tons more than the tr
Anna11 [10]

Let's say the first truck weighs x tons

Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons

The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons

The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons

Total weight of 4 trucks:

x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32

 

which can be solved easily to give x = 5

11b-12<-100
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

ok wait which symbol? this (<)?

well it should stay the same since -100 is greater than the 11b-12

LHS=RHS

11b÷11b b must cancell b also do the same on -12. -12÷11 will give u a lesser value compared to -100

prove me wrong
