Given:
grapes = 2 1/2 pounds
apples = 1 1/4 times as many pounds as grapes.
For easier computation, let us convert these fractions into numbers with decimal places.
2 1/2 pounds = 2.50 pounds
1 1/4 times = 1.25
Apples = 2.50 pounds * 1.25 = 3.125 pounds of apples.
Or we still use fractions. We need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.
2 1/2 = 5/2
1 1/4 = 5/4
5/2 * 5/4 = 5*5 / 2*4 = 25/8 is simplified to 3 1/8 pounds
Solution:
Population in the city= 10,000
As genetic condition affects 8% of the population.
8 % of 10,000

As, it is also given that, there is an error rate of 1% for condition (i.e., 1% false negatives and 1% false positives).
So, 1% false negatives means out of 800 tested who are found affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found affected are not affected at all.
So, 1% of 800 
Also, 1% false positives means out of 10,000 tested,[10,000-800= 9200] who are found not affected , means there are chances that 1% who was found not affected can be affected also.
So, 1% of 9200 
1. Has condition Does not have condition totals = 800
2. Test positive =92
3. Test negative =8
4. Total =800 +92 +8=900
5. Probability (as a percentage) that a person has the condition if he or she tests positive= As 8% are found positive among 10,000 means 9200 are not found affected.But there are chances that out of 9200 , 1% may be affected

that is Probability equal to 0.01 or 1%.

Please check explanations
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to make a description
Mathematically, a prism is a solid shape with parallel bases, separated by a particular height
To find the volume of the prism, all we have to do is to find the area of one of the bases
After this, we then multiply the value obtained by the height of the prism. This gives the volume of the prism
Ok, so this one requires you to set up an equation that makes sense....(mr. Smith + mr. Harry)/2= 489...that is the average money from the problem....ok so let’s add some variables now and make it look like math. 2x is mr smith from the first sentence. X is mr. Harry. This yields
(2x+x)/2=489.....use inverse operations to yield
2x+x=978
Combine like terms to get
3x=978
Then divide by 3
To give you x=326
What does x tell you?
X= harry = 326
2x = Smith = 652
To check add them together and divide by 2 to get the average....489
<u>Answer</u>
<em>12 in by 12 in</em>
<u>Explanation</u>
The original length = x
This makes the length of the cube made to be = x - (2×2)
= (x - 4) in
height of the cube = 2 in
Volume of the cube = (x - 4) × (x - 4) × 2 = 128
= (x² - 8x + 16) × 2 = 128
= 2x² - 16x + 32 = 128
= 2x² - 16x + 32- 128=0
= 2x² - 16x - 96 = 0
= x² - 8x - 48 = 0
lets use the factor method to solve the quadrilatic equation above,
x² - 8x - 48 = 0
proctuct = -48
sum = -8
The two factors are; -12 and 8.
(x + 8)(x - 12) = 0
So the value of x are 12 and -8. Since x is a length, it can not be negative.
∴ x = 12 in.
The original dimensions of the sheet are <em>12 in by 12 in</em>.
