Section 3.5 pp. 265 #14
14. Business and finance. Julio works as a quality control expert in a beverage factory. The assembly line that he monitors produces about 20,000 bottles in a 24-hour period. Julio samples about 120 bottles an hour and rejects the line if he finds more than 1/50 of the sample to be defective. About how many defective bottles should Julio allow before rejecting the entire line?
So, I think she would only allow 1 bottles and she would reject the line.

16. Business and finance. Lunchmeat sells for about $3 per pound. You use about 1/2 pound per day for sandwiches. How much should you budget for lunchmeat over the next month (about 20 workdays)? One pound would last 2 days.
So, I would need 10 pounds of lunch meat.
3x10=$30 for lunchmeat

Yep.
Below are the solutions to each of the provided problems:
Section 3.1 pp. 219-222 #18:
Unfortunately, the specific problem is not provided.
Section 3.1 pp. 219-222 #38:
To evaluate the expression, 9 - 3 + 13 + 7 + 16, you simply combine like terms: 9 + 13 + 7 + 16 = 45.
Section 3.1 pp. 219-222 #44:
To find the total length of time for the three tasks, you simply add the times together: 7 + 12 + 21 = 40 minutes. To express this as a fraction of an hour, you can divide the total minutes by 60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour): 40/60 = 2/3 hours or 40 minutes.
Section 3.1 pp. 219-222 #50:
Unfortunately, the specific triangle is not described, so the perimeter cannot be found.
Section 3.2 p. 228 #22:
To find the least common multiple (LCM) of the given numbers (12, 20, and 35), you can list the multiples of each number and find the smallest multiple that is common to all three numbers. The LCM would be the smallest such multiple. In this case, the LCM of 12, 20, and 35 is 420.
Section 3.3 p. 241 #36:
The problem is not provided.
Section 3.3 p. 241 #55:
To find the total portion of the salary that these four expenses account for, you simply add the fractions together: 1/4 + 3/16 + 1/16 + 1/8 = 7/16. Therefore, these four expenses account for 7/16 of the salary.
Activity 7: Kitchen Subflooring, p. 247 Questions 1-5:
The questions are not visible, so the solutions cannot be provided.
Section 3.4 pp. 254-257 #26:
The problem is not provided.
Section 3.4 pp. 254-257 #30:
To find the total distance Robin ran during the week, you simply add the distances together: 5 1/3 + 2 1/4 + 3 1/2. To add mixed numbers, you need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 12. Therefore, the answer would be 12 2/12 + 5/12 + 6/12 = 18 13/12 = 19 1/12 miles.
Section 3.4 pp. 254-257 #48:
To find the increase in interest rate over the period, you need to subtract the initial interest rate from the final interest rate: 14 1/4 - 12 3/8. To subtract mixed numbers, you need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 8. Therefore, the answer would be 14 2/8 - 12 3/8 = 1 7/8. Therefore, the interest rate increased by 1 7/8 percentage points.
Section 3.5 pp. 265 #14:
To find the number of defective bottles Julio should allow before rejecting the entire line, you need to find 1/50 of the sample size. The sample size is 120 bottles per hour. Therefore, 1/50 of 120 would be 120/50 = 2.4. Since you can't have a fraction of a bottle, Julio should allow 2 defective bottles before rejecting the entire line.
Section 3.5 pp. 265 #16:
To find the total cost of lunchmeat over the next month, you need to multiply the price per pound by the number of workdays and the amount used per day. The price per pound is $3, the number of workdays is 20, and the amount used per day is 1/2 pound. Therefore, the total cost would be 3 x (20 x 1/2) = 30.
Section 3.5 pp. 265 #24:
To estimate the given quotient, 17 11/12 divided by 6 1/10, you can round down the dividend and round up the divisor to simplify the division. In this case, rounding down 17 11/12 to 17 and rounding up 6 1/10 to 7 would make the division easier. Therefore, 17 divided by 7 is equal to 2, with a remainder of 3. So the estimate of the quotient is 2 remainder 3.
