X^2+3(X+2)=24
X^2+3x+6-24=0

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we start by solving for the z score

We have the following information

x = 3.25

Standard deviation = sd = 2.25

Mean = 5.50

Z = (x - mean)/sd

z = 3.25 - 5.50/2 25

z = -1.00

If we look this up in the standard normal distribution table,

P(z<-1.00) = 0.1587

Which when approximated gives us

16%

Therefore approximately 16% of lobsters will have to be returned back to the sea.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer: (A) 19.3%

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$\text{Vodka: }2.5\text{ oz }\times\dfrac{\$35}{1\text{ liter }}\times\dfrac{1\text{ liter }}{33.814\text{ oz }}=\$2.59\\\\\text{Vermouth: }0.5\text{ oz }\times\dfrac{\$7.99}{1\text{ liter }}\times\dfrac{1\text{ liter }}{33.814\text{ oz }}=\$0.12\\\\\text{Olive: }\$0.15$

Vodka + Vermouth + Olive = Total Cost

$2.59 + $0.12 + $0.15 = $2.86

$\dfrac{\text{cost to make}}{\text{selling price}} = \dfrac{\$2.86}{\$15} = 0.19 = 19\%$
