Answer:
There are 3 prime numbers shown on the die: 2, 3 and 5. The probability of showing a prime number on a single die is 1/2, hence the probability of not showing a prime number is also 1/2. Total possible outcomes when two dice are rolled = 6*6 = 36. Total possible outcomes when two dice are rolled = 6*6 = 36.
Given, Customers pay $4 to enter the pumpkin patch.
And also given, customers pay $3 per pound for the pumpkins.
Given, $y be the total cost and there are x pounds of pumpkins.
The cost for pumpkin per pound = $3.
Therefore, the cost for x pound pumpkins = $(3x)
As the total cost includes the payment for entering the patch also,
So the total cost y = 3x + 4
We have got the required equation.
The equation to model the total cost is y = 3x+4.
2a.) 8.8 x 4 = 35.2g
2b.) 35.2 x 30 = 1056g or 1.056kg
