Final answer:
Option A. Russ can fill 5 cartons with eggs. The number in 'two dozen eggs' is two, and the unit is 'dozen eggs.' For the gross of eggs example, the variable X represents the number of cracked eggs and can have values from 0 to 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine how many cartons of eggs Russ can fill when he collects 30 eggs and each carton holds 6 eggs, we divide the total number of eggs by the number of eggs that can fit in each carton:
30 eggs ÷ 6 eggs/carton = 5 cartons
Thus, Russ fills 5 cartons with eggs. Consequently, sentence A, 'Russ fills 5 cartons of eggs,' is true.
Regarding the question on quantities, for one dozen eggs:
- The number is one, and the unit is a dozen eggs.
For the quantity two dozen eggs:
- The number is two, and the unit is dozen eggs.
- The unit is eggs when referring to individual eggs, but for this context, since we're using 'dozen' as a collective term, it's 'dozen eggs'.
Fill in the blank for the conversion:
1 km = 1,000 meters
In the provided example: 'A gross of eggs contains 144 eggs', with 12 cracked eggs and a sample of 15 chosen for inspection:
- Let variable X represent the number of cracked eggs found in the inspection.
- X can take on values from 0 to 3 to satisfy the condition of 'at most three are cracked'.
