Carmine mixes 2.8 pounds of cashews with almonds to make a trail mix. He divides the trail mix into 5 equal portions. Each porti

on weighs 1.5 pounds. Which equation and solution shows the total amount of almonds he used in the mixture? One-fifth (2.8 + a) = 1.5 (5); a = 34.7 pounds of almonds One-fifth (2.8 + a) = 1.5; a = 4.7 pounds of almonds One-fifth (2.8 + a) = 1.5 (5); a = 4.7 pounds of almonds One-fifth (2.8 + a) = 1.5; a = 34.7 pounds of almonds

Answer:

I think its choice C

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it makes more sense to me

5 * 1.5 to get 7.5, which is total pounds

7.5 - 2.8 to get how many almonds

= 4.7

Choice C makes the most sense to get that answer

i'm only in 5th grade so tell me if i'm wrong ill be ok with that

Madi has $8.80 in pennies and nickels.
shepuryov [24]
Let p = number of pennies.
Let n = number of nickels.

We are given that n= 2p and the total value is $8.80.

We know that a penny = $0.01 and that a nickel = $0.05.

So $0.01p + $0.05n = $8.80.

Substitute 2p for n:
$0.01p + $0.05*2p = $8.80

$0.01p + $0.10p = $8.80

$0.11p = $8.80

p = 80
So n = 2p = 2*80 = 160

Thus there are 80 pennies ($0.8) and 160 nickels ($8.00). The value of all the coins is $8.80.

If it takes 10 seconds for 10 printers to print out 10 pages of paper, how many seconds will it take 50 printers to print out 50
Fed [463]

Lets use the formula RWT=J to solve this, where,

  • R is the rate
  • W is the number of workers/things
  • T is time
  • J is number of jobs/things

<em><u>"If it takes 10 seconds for 10 printers to print out 10 pages of paper"</u></em> - here -

W is 10 printers, T is 10 seconds,  and J is 10 pages. We can write:

R(10)(10)=10\\R(100)=10\\R=\frac{10}{100}\\R=0.1


<u><em>"how many seconds will it take 50 printers to print out 50 pages of paper"</em></u><em> - here we use R=0.1 (previously found) to figure out T.</em>

<em>RWT=J\\(0.1)(50)T=50\\5T=50\\T=\frac{50}{5}\\T=10</em>

So it will take 10 seconds for 50 printers to print 50 pages.

Using Normal Distribution to Analyze Data Martin suspects that people carry less cash with them than they used to because of cre
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 95

X=cash carried by the persons

x bar = 8.00

s = sample std dev = 2.50

Std error = \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } =\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{95} } \\=0.2565

Hence Z score would be

\frac{x-8}{0.2565}

a) P(X

-0.00

b) P(9

c) 95% conf interval margin of error = ±1.96*0.2565

=±0.54782

Confi interval = (8-0.5027, 8+0.5027)

= (7.4923, 8.5027)

C)If conf level increases, then width of interval would increase since critical value would increase.

If sample size increases std error would decrease and hence margin of error.

So interval would decrease.
