Answer:

If 2/5 are apples, 2/5 x 8.9 kilos = 0.4 x 8.9 = 3.56 kilos of apples

pears = 8.9 - 3.56 = 5.34 kilos

if apples are 2/5, then pears are 3/5. 3/5 x 8.9 = .6 x 8.9 = 5.34 kilos of pears

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=-x^{2} +36$

can be factored out as (-x-6)(x-6)

x-intercepts are: +6 and -6

represents the two ends of the rainbow

y-intercept: y=36

represents the highest point of the rainbow

Answer:

B. Yes, there are at least 10 people with weak bones and 10 people with strong bones in each group.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The correct answer is:

B. Yes, there are at least 10 people with weak bones and 10 people with strong bones in each group.

Question 1 Answer:

Aunt 1 and Grandma 1 would fill gift bags.

Mom and Aunt 2 would make centerpieces.

You and Grandma 2 would blow up balloons.

Since you are pairing up to complete the tasks, these pairs each have the shortest times in their respective categories and therefore are the most logical pairing to complete tasks.

Question 2 Answer:

We use algebra and our previous pairings to determine the length of each task.

<u>Gifts Bags --> 6/7 hours</u>

x = time together

$\frac{1}{x}$ = rate of completion

Aunt 1 = $\frac{1}{1.5}$ Grandma 1 = $\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{2}{3} +\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{7}{6} = \frac{1}{x}$

$x = \frac{6}{7}$

<u>Centerpieces --> 7/4 hours</u>

x = time together $\frac{1}{x}$ = rate of completion

Mom = $\frac{1}{3.5}$ Aunt 2 = $\frac{1}{3.5}$

$\frac{2}{7} + \frac{2}{7} = \frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{4}{7} = \frac{1}{x}$

$x = \frac{7}{4}$

<u>Balloons --> 15/16 hours</u>

x = time together $\frac{1}{x}$ = rate of completion

You = $\frac{1}{1.5}$ Grandma 2 = $\frac{1}{2.5}$

$\frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{16}{15} = \frac{1}{x}$

$x = \frac{15}{16}$

Shortest amount of time to complete all tasks is:

$\frac{6}{7} + \frac{7}{4} + \frac{15}{16} = \frac{397}{112}$ ≈ 3.54 hours

Converting hours to hours and minutes --> 3 hours 32 minutes

Therefore they must arrive by 5:28pm to complete the tasks in time to leave at 9:00pm.
