20+5=25 then 25-4.67=20.33 so then you do 20.33/4.5=4.5 so the cost for one pound of fruit is $4.57. Hope this helps :)

It takes 36 minutes to manually package 400 candles into boxes for shipment. When an automated packaging system works together w

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Candles can be manually packed at the rate of ...

... (400 candles)/(36 minutes) = 11 1/9 candles/minute

The two systems together pack candles at the rate of ...

... (400 candles)/(9 minutes) = 44 4/9 candles/minute

Then the machine's packing rate is the difference between the total and the manual rates:

... machine rate = (44 4/9 candles/minute) - (11 1/9 candles/minute)

... = 33 1/3 candles/minute.

At this rate, the machine working alone can pack 400 candles in ...

... (400 candles)/(33 1/3 candles/minute) = (400/(100/3)) minutes

... = 400 × 3/100 minutes = 12 minutes

High school students from track teams in the state participated in a training program to improve running times. Before the train

Nataly [62]

Answer:

b. The values X and Y are independent therefore, the mean is 34 seconds and the standard deviation is 50 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Before the training, the mean running time for the students to run a mile was 402 seconds with standard deviation 40 seconds.

This means that $\mu_X = 402, \sigma_X = 40$

After completing the program, the mean running time for the students to run a mile was 368 seconds with standard deviation 30 seconds.

This means that $\mu_Y = 368, \sigma_Y = 30$

Which of the following is true about the distribution of X-Y?

They are independent, so:

$\mu = \mu_X - \mu_Y = 402 - 368 = 34$

$\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_X^2+\sigma_Y^2} = \sqrt{40^2+30^2} = 50$

This means that the correct answer is given by option b.
