A quality control officer randomly checking weights of pumpkin seed bags being filled by an automatic filling machine. Each bag

is advertised as weighing 400 grams. A bag must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted. What is the range of rejected bag, x, for the bags of pumpkin seeds?
A. 397.9 B. x < 397.9 and x > 402.1
C. x < 400.0 and x> 402.1
D. 400.0 > x < 402.1

<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

Product A is an 8oz. Bottle of cough medicine that sells for $1.36. Product B is a 16oz. Bottle cough medicine that costs $3.20.
Pavlova-9 [17]
Product A= 8oz = 1.36 x 2= 2.72. 16oz = 2.72

product B=16oz= 3.20

so Product A has the lower unit price.

good job on increasing our team sales from 90 to 130 units per day.” wow i never thought that we could increase our sales by
artcher [175]

The sales was increased by 44.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Lets do this cumulative
  • 90 of 10 % =  9  which is 99
  • 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 108
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 117
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 126
  • 90 of 4 % = 3.6 which is 129.6
  • 90 of 0.044% = 0.0396 which is 129.99
  • This comes to nearly 44.44 to be closer there was an increase.
  • Always rule 1 approximation use 50% of 90 if it is above 130.
  • Down it to 40% of 90 see if the sales is lower than 130.
  • It should always start with 50,40,30....10 percents.
  • Alternative should be 10,1 or decimals.
  • Approximation using decimals rounding up becomes simple.

Venita is factoring the expression 32 a b minus 8 b. She determines the GCF and writes the factored expression as 8 b (4 a minus
never [62]

Answer:

She subtracted the GCF from the second term in the expression instead of dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 32ab-8b, to find the common greatest factor, we will bring out a function that us common to both terms 32ab and 8b. To do that, we need to first find their individual factors as shown:

32ab = (2×2×2)×2×2×a×(b)

8b = (2×2×2×b)

From both factors, the common terms are the values in parenthesis i.e 2×2×2×b = 8b

Hence the GCF of the expression 32ab - 8b is 8b. On factoring out 8b from the expression we will have;

= 32ab - 8b

= 8b(32ab/8b - 8b/8b)

= 8b(4a-1)

Comparing the gotten equation with Venita's own, 8b(4a-0), we can say that she correctly factored out the GCF but her error was that she subtracted 8b from the second term of the expression instead of dividing by 8b. 8b-8b is what gives her 0 making her expression wrong. She should have divided her second term also by 8b to have 8b/8b which results in 1 instead of 0 that venita got.
