Answer:

7\frac{17}{20} pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of apples Lowell bought = 4\frac{1}{4} pounds

                                                      ≈ \frac{17}{4} pounds

Weight of oranges Lowell bought = 3\frac{3}{5} pounds

                                                        ≈ \frac{18}{4} pounds

So total weight of the fruits = \frac{17}{4} + \frac{18}{5}

                                              = \frac{85+72}{20}

                                              = \frac{157}{20}

                                              = 7\frac{17}{20} pounds

Therefore, total weight of the fruits Lowel bought is  7\frac{17}{20} pounds.

Since we are not given any information about the proportion, we will assume the sample proportion to be 0.50

so,
p = 0.50
The Error is 10% percentage point. This means that on either side of the population proportion the error is 5% so E = 0.05
z = 1.645 (Z value for 90% confidence interval)

The margin of error for population proportion is calculated as:

E=z* \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }  \\  \\ 
 \frac{E}{z} = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }  \\  \\ 
( \frac{E}{z} )^{2}= \frac{p(1-p)}{n} \\  \\ 
n= p(1-p)* (\frac{z}{E})^{2}  \\  \\ 
n=271

This means 271 students should be included in the sample

Ariana and Emily are both standing in line at Papa Joe’s Pizza. Ariana orders 4 large cheese pizzas and 1 order of breadsticks.
Eva8 [605]

The cost of 1 large pizza is $7.99 and cost of one breadstick is $2.50

Elimination method was used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of one large pizza = x

Cost of one breadstick = y

According to given statement;

4x+y=34.46    Eqn 1

2x+y=18.48     Eqn 2

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 1

(4x+y)-(2x+y)=34.46-18.48\\4x+y-2x-y=15.98\\2x=15.98

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{15.98}\\x=7.99

Putting x=7.99 in Eqn 2

4(7.99)+y=34.46\\31.96+y=34.46\\y=34.46-31.96\\y=2.50

The cost of 1 large pizza is $7.99 and cost of one breadstick is $2.50

Elimination method was used.

Oscar has received a $4,000 gift and is looking for a bank to start a savings account. Which option
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The best option for him would be a real interest rate of 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nominal interest rate is the one that represents the percentage of increase of the money that is in a certain investment, without discounting the depreciation due to inflation or the payment of taxes.

On the other hand, the real interest rate is the one that represents the real increase in the money invested, after discounting inflation and any taxes to be paid.

Therefore, the best option for Oscar would be to invest his $ 4,000 in a savings account with a real interest rate of 5% per year.

To solve problems about spans of time that include B.C. and A.D. dates, you would need to use which numbers?
Studentka2010 [4]

The correct numbers to use in solving problems about spans of time like B.C. and A.D. should be “integers”.

Integers are whole numbers (not a fractional number or not a decimal number) which can take a value of negative, zero, or positive number. Example of integers would be -1, 0 and 1.

<span>In calculations, the time period would be on the x-axis. Since B.C. and A.D. are two different spans of time, therefore in the calculations, the date of BC should be negative (negative x-axis) while the date of AD should be positive (positive x-axis). This would place the origin as the common reference.</span>
