Answer: 2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Data:
Money spent by Paula for red bell peppers = $2.56
Money spent by Paula on green bell peppers = $1.92
Both pepper cost = $1.60/ pound
Therefore:
Total pounds of bell peppers bought by Paula
= cost of green bell pepper + red red bell pepper / price/pound
= $2.56 + $1.92 / $1.60
= $4.48 / $1.60
= 2.8 pounds
Paula bought 2.8pounds of pepper
Brad's profit was 30%
Further explanation:
Profit is the money someone earns on selling a product on more than its actual cost.
The formula for profit is:
Given
Purchase price of energy drinks = £9.25
Selling price of one bottle=£1
Selling price of 12 bottles=1*12=£12
Profit= Selling Price - Purchse price
=12-9.25
=£2.75
Brad's profit was £2.75
Now,
Profit percentage= (Profit/Purchase Price)*100
=(2.75/9.25)*100
=0.30*100
=30%
Brad's profit was 30%

1. For multiplication and division), we first compare the number of significant figure (let's call it SF later in the problem) that the factors have. The product will have the least numbers between them. So, for the case of 11.55 x 2.5, 11.55 has 4 SF while 2.5 has 2. So we choose the smallest which is 2 for this case. Hence, the answer is B.
2. Using the same rules as mentioned in Item 1, we first compare the number of SF in the numbers give. 975.0321 has 7 SF while 0.0003 has 1 (all zeroes not following a counting number are not significant). We now solve for the quotient and round it off to 1 SF.
(975.0321/0.0003) = 3250107. Rounding it off, we have 3000000 or 3 x 10⁶. Thus, the answer is D.
3. The rules for multiplication still apply even for more than two factors. So, let's first take note of the SF present in each factor as shown below.
0.00147 = 3 SF
8.314 = 4 SF
7.100 = 4 SF (zeroes after a counting number in the decimal place are considered significant)
From this, we can see that the product must round off to 3 SF. Multiplying the three numbers, we have
0.00147 x 8.314 x 7.100 = 0.086773218
So, the product rounded off to 3 SF is 0.0868 or 8.68 x 10⁻². So, the answer must be C<span>.

Answer:
- Fresh Pond: p(t) = 854 +3t
- Strawberry: p(t) = 427·1.10^t
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The general term of an arithmetic sequence is ...
an = a1 + d(n -1)
If we let the sequence of population numbers be modeled by this, and we use t for the number of years, we want n=1 for t=0, so n = t+1 and we have ...
p(t) = 854 +3(t+1-1)
p(t) = 854 +3t
__
(b) The general term of a geometric sequence is ...
an = a1·r^(n-1)
were r is the common ratio. Here, the multiplier from one year to the next is 1+10% = 1.10. Again, n=t+1, so the population equation is ...
p(t) = 427·1.10^(t+1-1)
p(t) = 427·1.10^t
