Shen’s mother gave him $10 to go buy groceries. He picked up a gallon of milk for $3.49, three pounds of oranges that cost $1.14 per pound, and a box of cereal for $3.46. Shen used front-end estimation to determine whether he had enough money for the groceries. How much did he estimate the total cost would be?

He estimated that he had about $7 worth of groceries.
He estimated that he had about $9 worth of groceries.
He estimated that he had about $10.30 worth of groceries.
He estimated that he had about $10.40 worth of groceries.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He estimated there were about $10.40 worth of groceries

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to round the prices up to the nearest tenth and then add them all.

3.50

3.50

1.15

1.15

1.15

___

10.45

So 10.45 is closest to 10.40 and you have to remeber that this is just an estimate so it will be less because we rounded the answer up.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

$9 its be heres my work

Step-by-step explanation:

Gallon of milk: $3.49

3lbs oranges: $1.14(3) = $3.42

Box of cereal: $3.46

Front end estimation is taking the number in front and the rest of the numbers coming after it will be zeroes.

Using front end estimation:

$3.49 => $3.00

$3.42 => $3.00

$3.46 => $3.00

Add all these up; Shen estimated the total cost of the groceries would be $9.00.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {x < 4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the given inequality:

[tex]5x - 1 < 2x + 11[/tex]

-Take [tex]2x[/tex] and subtract it from [tex]5x[/tex]:

[tex]5x - 1 - 2x < 2x - 2x + 11[/tex]

[tex]3x - 1 < 11[/tex]

-Add both sides by [tex]1[/tex]:

[tex]3x - 1 + 1 < 11 + 1[/tex]

[tex]3x < 12[/tex]

-Since [tex]3[/tex] is positive, then the inequality sign remains the same. So, divide both sides by [tex]3[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} < \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {x < 4}[/tex] (final answer)

The volleyball team raised $350 from its fundraiser. It wants to buy jerseys and volleyballs. The jerseys cost $12 each, and the team needs 22 jerseys. Volleyballs cost $15 each. What is the maximum number of volleyballs the team can buy and still have money left? Write your answer and explain the steps you took. WILL GIVE BRAIKNLIEST IF RIGHT!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The team can buy 5 volleyballs at maximum with no money left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the money that the jerseys used:

12 × 22 = $264

Next, you have to subtract that from the total amount:

350 - 264 = $86

Finally, you have to see how many volleyballs you can buy:

If volleyballs cost $15 each then, 86 ÷ 15 = 5.73333333(Infinite)

But you can not buy part of a volleyball so you would have to buy 5 volleyballs. Then you would only have .7333333(Infinite) money left over, but that wouldn't be good for anything.

are straight lines. Find x and y. Give reasons to justify your solutions.

Answers

Answer:

x = 18

y = 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

m<MON = 90° (given)

m<MOA = 72° (given)

m<AON + m<MOA = m<MON (Angle Addition Postulate)

m<AON + 72° = 90° (Substitution)

Subtract 72° from each side

m<AON = 90° - 72°

m<AON = 18°

m<AOD = 18° + 2x

m<BOC = 3x

m<AOD = m<BOC (vertical angles)

18 + 2x = 3x (Substitution)

Subtract 2x from each side

18 = 3x - 2x

18 = x

x = 18.

72° + y + 3x = 180° (angles on a straight line)

Plug in the value of x

72 + y + 3(18) = 180

72 + y + 54 = 180

126 + y = 180

Subtract 126 from both sides

y = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for fundung the nth term of t geometeric series is expressed as;

Tn = ar^(n-1)

a is the first term

n is the number of term

r is the common ratio

Given

a = 3

r = 21/3 = 48/12 = 4

Substitute

Tn = 3(4)^(n-1)

Tn = 3(4^n/4)

Tn = 3/4(4^n)

Tn = 0.75(4^n)

Hence the nth term of the geometric series is Tn = 0.75(4^n)

To get any term, simply substitute the value of into the equation

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.705015

b) 0.13424

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

The incubation period for the eggs of a house wren is normally distributed with a mean of 336 hours and a standard deviation of 3.5 hours.

a) Find the probability that an egg has an incubation period between 328 and 338 hours.

For x = 328

z = 328 - 336/3.5

z = -2.28571

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 328) = 0.011135

For x = 338

z = 338 - 336/3.5

z = 0.57143

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 338) = 0.71615

The probability that an egg has an incubation period between 328 and 338 hours.

P(x = 338) - (P(x = 328)

0.71615 - 0.011135

= 0.705015

b) Suppose a researcher has fifteen house wren eggs in an incubator. Find the probability that the average incubation time for the fifteen eggs is greater than 337 hours.

We are given a sample of 15 wren eggs,

We use this z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

n is random number of samples

z = 337 - 336/3.5/√15

z = 1.10657

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<337) = 0.86576

P(x>337) = 1 - P(x<337) = 0.13424

Suppose it is known that 33% of House wren eggs never hatch. Suppose an ornithologist has forty house wren eggs. Find the probability that less than 25% never hatch.

Solve for e 0.75(8+e)=2-1.25e

Answers

0.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e

0.75(8) = 6

6 + 0.75e = 2 - 1.25e

Add 1.25e on both sides

6 + 2e = 2

Subtract 6 on both sides

2e = -4

Divide the whole thing by 2

e = -2
0.75(8+e)=2-1.25e
0.75(8)+(0.75)(e)=2+-1.25e
6+0.75e=2+-1.25e
0.75e+6=-1.25e+2
0.75e+6+1.25=-1.25e+2+1.25e
2e+6=2
2e+6-6=2-6
2e=-4
2e/2=-4/2
e=-2
