A grain dealer sold to one customer 5 bushels of wheat, 2 of com, and 3 of ryo, for $228: to another, 2 of wheat, 3 of corn, and 5 of ryo, for $228, and to a third, 3 of wheat, 5 of com, and 2 of rye, for $228. What was the price per bushel for com?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.30 :) hope this helps!!!!!!! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

w = wheat     c = corn    r = rye

6w + 3c + 6r = 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r = 49.20

6w + 6c + 3r = 41.40

since you want the answer for c, manipulate then add 2 equations that will get rid of 1 variable:

if we multiply the first equation by -1 then add it to the second equation, it will eliminate the r

-6w -  3c -  6r = - 45.90

3w + 6c + 6r =   49.20

------------------------------------

- 3w +3c  =      3.30    or     w - c = - 1.10

If we multiply the 3rd equation by -2 then add it to the first equation, it will eliminate the  r  again:

-12w - 12c -  6r = - 82.80

  6w + 3c + 6r =    45.90

------------------------------------------

- 6w - 9c         =  - 36.90   or       2w + 3c  =   12.30

now we have 2 equations and 2 variables that we can solve by substitution:

w = c - 1.10

2(c - 1.10)  + 3c = 12.30

2c - 2.20 + 3c   =   12.30

5c = 14.50

c = 2.90      

w = c - 1.10   or  1.80

3r = 41.40 - 6(1.80) - 6(2.90)

3r = 13.20    r = 4.40

I will pick the 2nd equation to check my answers :)!

3(1.80) +  6(2.90)  + 6(4.40)  = 49.20

5.40 + 17.40 + 26.40 =  49.20

Answer 2

As per linear equation, the price per bushel for corn is $22.8.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation is an equation that has one or multiple variable with the highest power of the variable is 1.

Given, a grain dealer sold to one customer 5 bushels of wheat, 2 of corn, and 3 of rye, for $228.

To another customer, he sold 2 of wheat, 3 of corn, and 5 of rye, for $228.

To a third customer, 3 of wheat, 5 of corn, and 2 of rye, for $228.

Let, per piece of wheat is of $x.

Per piece of corn is of $y.

Per piece of rye is of $z.

Therefore, 5x + 2y + 3z = 228 ....(1)

2x + 3y + 5z = 228 .........................(2)

3x + 5y +2z = 228 ..........................(3)

Multiplying equation(1) by '2' and equation(2) by '5' and substract, we get:

2(5x + 2y + 3z) - 5(2x + 3y + 5z) = 2(228) - 5(228)

⇒ (10x + 4y + 6z) - (10x + 15y + 25z) = - 3(228)

⇒ (- 11y - 19z) = - 684

⇒ 11y + 19z = 684 ......(4)

Multiplying equation(2) by '3' and equation(3) by '2' and substract, we get:

3(2x + 3y + 5z) - 2(3x + 5y +2z) = 3(228) - 2(228)

⇒ (6x + 9y + 15z) - (6x + 10y + 4z) = 228

⇒ - y + 11z = 228 .......(5)

Now, multiplying equation(5) by '11' and then add with equation (4), we get:

 11y + 19z + 11(- y + 11z) = 684 + 11(228)

⇒ 140z = 3192

⇒ z = 22.8

Putting the value of 'z' in equation (5) we get:

- y + 11(22.8) = 228

⇒ y = 22.8

Now, putting the values of 'y' and 'z' in equation (1), we get:

5x + 2(22.8) + 3(22.8) = 228

⇒ 5x = 114

⇒ x = 22.8

Khan uses 78ft of fence for a pen and the length is 25ft. What is the width

Answers

Answer:

The width is 14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Fence = 78[/tex]

[tex]Length = 25[/tex]

Required

Determine the width

To do this, we assume that the fence is a rectangle

So, we use the following formula.

[tex]Perimeter = 2 * [Length + Width}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]Perimeter = Fence = 78[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]78= 2 * [25 + Width}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]39= 25 + Width[/tex]

Solve for Width

[tex]Width = 39 - 25[/tex]

[tex]Width = 14[/tex]

If a sample proportion is 0.55, which of the following could be a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion? Select all that apply.
(a) Lower bound: 0.50; Upper bound: 0.60 (b) Lower bound: 0.53; Upper bound: 0.59 (c) Lower bound: 0.52; Upper bound: 0.58 (d) Lower bound: 0.60; Upper bound: 0.70 (e) Lower bound: 0.45; Upper bound: 0.60​

Answers

Answer:

The correct options are a and c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval:

A confidence interval is given by the sample proportion plus/minus the margin of error. This means that the confidence interval is symmetric, that is, the difference between the upper bound and the sample proportion has to be the same as the difference between the sample proportion and the lower bound.

Sample proportion is 0.55

So options for the confidence interval are:

Lower bound - upper bound

0.54 - 0.56

0.53 - 0.57(which means that option b is wrong)

0.52 - 0.58(which means that option c is right)

...

0.5 - 0.6(which means that option a is right).

The correct options are a and c.

The confidence interval is the range of value between which the true population proportion would lie given a certain margin of error. Hence the correct options are A and C

Hence, the upper and lower boundary would the same error value above and below the mean proportion.

Evaluating the options given :

Error below = 0.50 - 0.55 = -0.05

Error above = 0.60 - 0.55 = 0.05

Error below = 0.53 - 0.55 = -0.02

Error above = 0.59 - 0.55 = 0.04

Error below = 0.52 - 0.55 = -0.03

Error above = 0.58 - 0.55 = 0.03

Error below = 0.60 - 0.55 = 0.05

Error above = 0.70 - 0.55 = 0.15

Error below = 0.45 - 0.55 = -0.10

Error above = 0.60 - 0.55 = 0.05

Therefore, the only options with equal margin of error, above and below the mean are options A and C.
