Answer:

The cost of 1 cupcake  = $3.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of one cupcake = $ x.00

Now, the money spent by Cherie on 2 cupcakes = 2 ($x.00) = $2x

Also, the money spent by Sonya on 4 cupcakes = 4 ($x.00)  = $4x

Now, according to the question:

$2x  + $12.50  = $4x  + $5.00

or, 2x + 12.50 = 4x + 5

⇒ 4x - 2x = 12.50 - 5

or, 2x = 7.50

or, x  = 7.50/2 = 3.75

or, x = $3.75

Hence, the cost of 1 cupcake  = $3.75.

One researcher wishes to estimate the mean number of hours that high school students spend watching tv on a weekday. a margin of
PtichkaEL [24]
Margin of error, e = Z*SD/Sqrt (N), where N = Sample population

Assuming a 95% confidence interval and substituting all the values;
At 95% confidence, Z = 1.96

Therefore,
0.23 = 1.96*1.9/Sqrt (N)

Sqrt (N) = 1.96*1.9/0.23

N = (1.96*1.9/0.23)^2 = 262.16 ≈ 263

Minimum sample size required is 263 students.

Round to the nearest tenth wa hit is the perimeter of the triangle
klio [65]

Answer:

D. 11.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is a 30°-60°-90° triangle. There is a shortcut to find the lengths of the sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle. The longest side is the hypotenuse. The longest side is double the shortest side or, the shortest side is half the longest side. Here the longest side is 5, so the short leg (shortest side) is 2.5

The other shortcut is that the longer leg is the

short leg×sqroot3

Here, the short leg is 2.5, so the long leg is 2.5×sqroot3

Perimeter is all the sides added together.

5 + 2.5+ 2.5×sqrt3

Do the times first.

5 + 2.5 + 4.3

= 11.8
