Response:  I should request 150¢ for the bunch of bananas.  

Step-by-step explanation:  As an employee at a fruit market where bananas are priced at 50¢ a pound.

A customer presents me a bunch of bananas weighing 3 pounds.

We must determine the cost that should be charged for the bunch of bananas.

For this problem, we’ll apply the UNITARY method.

It’s also relevant that

100 ¢ = $1.

The price for one pound of bananas amounts to  50¢

Thus, the cost for 3 pounds of bananas can be determined by

p = (50 × 3)¢ = 150¢ = $1.50.

Hence, I should demand 150¢ for the bunch of bananas.

The sum of four consecutive odd numbers is 368 find the numbers​
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

The four odd numbers in sequence are 89, 90, 91, and 93.

Step-by-step explanation:

Designate the four consecutive numbers as x, x+2, x+4, and x+6.

Based on the information given in the question

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 368

4x + 12 = 368

4x = 356

x = 89

Consequently, the numbers are 89, 90, 91, and 93.

Hope this is helpful:)

Isabella built a time travel machine, but she can't control the destination of her trip. Each time she uses the machine she has
babunello [11817]

The likelihood that at least one trip occurs before Isabella's birth is 0.7627.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, Isabella has invented a time machine, but she lacks control over where she travels. Each use of the device holds a 0.25 probability of leading her to a time preceding her birth. Over the initial year of trials, she operates her machine 5 times. If we assume every journey has an equal chance of going back in time, we can calculate the odds that at least one of these trips occurs before she was born. Here's the calculation:

The probability of traveling to a time prior to her birth is 0.25.

The chance of not traveling back in time, given that the machine is used 5 times:

⇒ (1-0.25)(1-0.25)(1-0.25)(1-0.25)(1-0.25)

⇒ (1-0.25)^5

⇒ (0.75)^5

The probability that at least one trip goes before Isabella's birth is equal to 1 minus the probability of not traveling back to that period:

⇒ 1-(0.75)^5

⇒ 0.7627

Consequently, the chance that at least one trip travels before Isabella's birth is 0.7627.
