Answer:

The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is</em></u>

Blues berry farm charges Percy a total of $24.75 for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries. The entrance fee is $6 and the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant

Determine the price for each kilogram of strawberries

Let

x ----> the price for each kilogram of strawberries

we know that

The entrance fee plus the price of each kilogram of strawberries multiplied by the number of kilogram of strawberries must be equal to $24.75

The linear equation that represent this situation is

$2.5x+6=24.75$

solve for x

subtract 6 both sides

$2.5x=24.75-6\\2.5x=18.75$

divide by 2.5 both sides

$x=\$7.50$

therefore

The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50

X + y = 24...y = 24 - x
3.50x + 5.00y = 97.50

3.50x + 5(24 - x) = 97.50
3.50x + 120 - 5x = 97.50
3.50x - 5x = 97.50 - 120
-1.5x = -22.50
x = -22.50/-1.5
x = 15....there were 15 ten oz boxes (x) sold

(14.14) larry reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria. so he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking. if eggs do

melomori [17]

we know that

The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.

The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.

If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella

then

the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.

Therefore

for all 5 to not have salmonella

= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776

= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places

REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella

Therefore

the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40

= 0.60

the answer is

0.60 or 60%
