The owner of a new coffee shop is keeping track of how much each customer spends (in dollars). A random number table was used to generate a random sample of 20 pieces of data. The dot plot below shows the twenty pieces of data.

Based on the data in the dot plot, what would you expect the mean of the sample to be? EXPLAIN YOUR REASONING.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

answer: options

step-by-step explanation:

for this case we must apply distributive property to the following expression:

the distributive property states that:

then, when applying the property we have to multiply the -2 for each term within the parenthesis:
