Thanks for posting your question here. The answer to the above problem is x = <span>48.125. Below is the solution:
</span>
x+x/7+1/11(x+x/7)=60
x = x/1 = x • 7/7
x <span>• 7 + x/ 7 = 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>x + x/7 + 1/11 <span>• 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>8x <span>• 11 + 8x/ 77 = 96x/ 77
</span>96x - 4620 = 12 <span>• (8x-385)
</span>8x - 385 = 0
x = 48.125
Let the total cost of the item be represented by C and the price be represented by P, then given that t<span>he total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price, thus</span>
where k is a constant.
Given that <span>the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60, thus
Therefore, the total cost on a $55 item is given by

Answer:
0.08 ounces is interpreted as the Mean Absolute Deviation and this means that
the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean Absolute Deviation of a data set is defined as the distance or the deviation between a given data set and the calculated mean.
Mean Absolute Deviation tells us about how much a data set varies from it's mean.
From the above question, we are told that after weighing 48 eggs we have a mean of 2.1 ounces and mean deviation of 0.08 ounces
Therefore this means that the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces
<span>12x = 7y-10y
12x = -3y
-4x= y
y = -4x</span>
