<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

    B. x < 397.9 and x > 402.1

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Each bag is advertised as weighing 400 grams.

Also, a  bag must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted.

Hence, for the bag being accepted the weight must be no less than 2.1 gram from 400 gram and should be no more than 2.1 gram from 400 grams.

i.e. the weight of the bag must be such that:

               400-2.1≤ x ≤ 400+2.1

i.e.

              397.9 ≤ x ≤ 402.1

Hence, if the weight of the bag is less than 397.9 grams or is more than 402.1 grams then the bag will be rejected.

i.e. The range for the bag being rejected is: x<397.9 grams and x>402.1 grams.

From 0g to 494.7g are rejected as well as those heavier than 505.3grams.

You calculate this by subtracting and adding 5.3 to 500

Explain how you used the bar model in exercise 2 to solve the problem
lutik1710 [3]

We are given that Grandma has 14 red roses and 7 pink roses.

In order to represent them on bar modal, we need to make a bar with 14 identical sections for 14 red roses.

And for pink roses, we need to make a bar with 7 identical sections for 7 pink roses.

<em>From the bar graph, we can see that bar for red roses have 7 more boxes than bar of pink roses.</em>

<h3>Therefore,  she have 7 more red roses than pink roses.</h3>

Answer:

Your answer is B because y is total cost so it would go first, and miles is x so it would go after the 0.15 or 0.10, then add the monthly pay, and there you go!!

Maggie is considering two investments. Investment A Investment B Principal $10,000 $8,000 Interest rate 3% 2.8% Time in years 5
lana [24]
To solve this we are going to use the simple interest formula: A=P(a+rt)
where
A is the final amount.
P is the initial investment. 
r is the interest rate in decimal form.
t is the time in years. 

Investment A. We know that the initial investment is $10,000, so P=10000. We also know that the number of years is 5, so t=5. To convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
r= \frac{3}{100} =0.03
Lets replace those values in our formula to find A:
A=P(a+rt)
A=10000(1+0.03*5)
A=11500

Investment B. P=8000, t=15, and r= \frac{2.8}{100} =0.028.
A=P(a+rt)
A=8000(1+0.028*15)
A=11360

We can conclude that investment A will be worth than investment B at the end of the investment period.
