A pineapple is 7 times as heavy as an orange. the pineapple also weighs 870 grams more than the orange. what is the total weight
zzz [12365]
Let's convert each statement into mathematical terms.

Pineapple = p

Orange = x

is indicates equality

 

Pineapple has a weight that is 7 times that of an orange:  p = 7x

Pineapple is 870 grams heavier than the orange. p = 870 + x

 

Insert  p = 7x  into the second equation:

7x = 870 + x

Subtract  x from both sides

6x = 870

Divide by 6

x = 145

 

The weight of the orange is 145 grams.

The weight of the pineapple is 7 times that of the orange = 7(145) = 1015 grams.

At a small coffee shop, the distribution of the number of seconds it takes for a cashier to process an order is approximately no
Leona [12618]

Answer:

The correct answer is;

A. 0.17

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the provided details;

The average time taken for a cashier to handle an order, μ = 276 seconds

The deviation from the average, σ = 38 seconds

The z-score for an order processing time of x = 240 seconds can be calculated as follows;

Z=\dfrac{x-\mu }{\sigma }

Thus;

Z=\dfrac{240-276 }{38 } \approx  -0.9474

The resulting probability

P(z = -0.9474) = 0.17361

Hence, the estimated proportion of orders processed in under 240 seconds is roughly 0.17361 or 0.17 when rounded to two decimal places.

Sanjit drives the 45 km distance between York and Leeds he then drives a further 42 km from Leeds to Blackpool
Leona [12618]

The average speed for his entire journey from York to Blackpool is about 61.41 km/h.

Here’s a breakdown of how we arrive at this:

\text{ The average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Total time taken}}

The distance he travelled from York to Leeds is 45 km,

and the speed during that section was 54 km/h.

Therefore, the time taken to travel from York to Leeds is 45/54 hours (since Time = Distance/Speed).

Next, the distance from Leeds to Blackpool is 42 km,

and the time for that leg of the journey is 35 minutes, which is 35/60 hours.

This leads to the total duration for his trip as

=\frac{45}{54}+\frac{35}{60}=\frac{450+315}{540}=\frac{765}{540}=\frac{17}{12} hours.

The cumulative distance covered equals 45 + 42 = 87 km.

Thus, his average speed is calculated as:

=\frac{87}{17/12}= \frac{12\times 87}{17}=\frac{1044}{17}=61.4117647\approx 61.41\text{ km per hour}

Inessa [12570]
X² + 7x - 8 = 0; product = -8 times 1 = -8; sum = 7; {-1, 8}; x² - 1x + 8x - 8 = 0; x(x - 1) + 8(x - 1) = 0; thus, x + 8 = 0 or x - 1 = 0, leading to x = -8.
