Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The better buy is option C because you will be paying $3 instead of $18 for 24 bottles. Which means you will save $1.2 more than option B and $15 in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A:

If the bottle is 1.5 cent per bottle and you buy 24 bottles you will only spend:

=0.015*24=0.36 therefore only 36 cent.

Option B:

If the bottle is 70 cent per bottle and you buy 24 bottles you will only spend:

=0.70*24=16.8 therefore you will pay $16.8.

Option C:

If the bottle is 75 cent per bottle and you buy 24 bottles you will only spend:

=0.75*24=18 therefore you will pay $18.

Option D:

If the bottle is 1.4 cent per bottle and you buy 36 bottles you will only spend:

=0.014*36=0.50 therefore you will pay 50 cent.

∴ Option A you will overspend $3-0.36cents = $2.64

∴ Option B you will save $16.8-$3 = $13.8

∴ Option C you will save $18-$3 = $15

∴ Option B you will overspend $3-$0.5 = $2.5

Therefore option C is the best option because you will be paying $3 instead of $18 for 24 bottles. You will save $1.2 more than option B.
Answer 2
Answer: i would say 36 bottles for $4 by 1.4 cent because you get more bottle of waters and it doesn't cost that much money for a bottle of water

Math Twelve hundred students participated in the school chemistry contest. A random sample (Sample 1) from grades 9 and 10 showed scores of: 84, 50, 99, 83, 50, 78, 88, 85, 77, and 96.

A random sample (Sample 2) of grades 11 and 12 showed scores of: 57, 62, 86, 82, 74, 78, 96, 90, 97, and 83.

What is Statistics?

Statistics is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data.

A random sample (Sample 1) from grades 9 and 10 showed scores of:

84, 50, 99, 83, 50, 78, 88, 85, 77, and 96.

Ascending order:  50, 50, 77, 78, 83, 84, 85, 88, 96, 99

The sample has an even number of scores, so the median is the average of the two middle scores:

(83 + 84)/2

= 83.5

Therefore, the median of Sample 1 is 83.5.

For sample 2, the data set is 57, 62, 86, 82, 74, 78, 96, 90, 97, and 83.

Ascending order of scores: 57, 62, 74, 78, 82, 83, 86, 90, 96, 97

The sample has an even number of scores,

so the median is the average of the two middle scores: (82 + 83)/2

= 82.5

Hence, the median of Sample 1 is 83.5 and  median of Sample 2 is 82.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

in the town zoo, 3/28 of the animals are birds. of the birds, 4/15 are birds of prey. what fraction of the animals are birds of prey?

Answers

let's call the animals "a" and birds "b"

b=(3)/(28)a

we knot this from3/28 of the animals are birds.

and we also know that 4/15 are birds of prey.  so

p=(4)/(15)b

we could substitute:

p=(4*3)/(15*28)

and solve:

p=(1)/(35)
and this is the answer!

Quinn needs to buy fabric for a border to sew onto all four edges of a tablecloth. He also needs an extra 0.875 feet of fabric to make a matching potholder. The length of the table cloth is 4/3 of its width (w) in feet. The total amount of fabric needed (f), in feet, is represented by the equation below. f=2 (w+4/3 w) + 0.875
Quinn needs 113/8 feet of fabric for the border of the tablecloth and the potholder. What is the width of Quinn's tablecloth?

Answers

The width of Quinn's tablecloth is 2.839 inch

Quinn needs to buy fabric for a border to sew onto all four edges of a tablecloth.

\rm Total \; amount \; of \; fabric\; needed \; f = 2(w+ (4)/(3)* w )+ 0.875.......(1) \n

\rm Length \; of\; tablecloth = L = (4)/(3) * w

According to the given condition the fabric required for potholder = 0.875 feet

Quinn needs 113/8 feet of fabric for the border of the tablecloth and the potholder.

The Total amount of fabric needed for the border and the potholder = 113/8.....(2)

So from equation (1) and (2)  we get

\rm f = (113)/(8) \n

\rm Total \; amount \; of \; fabric\; needed \; f = 2(w+ (4)/(3)* w )+ 0.875=(113)/(8) \n

Solving for w we can get

w = 2.839 inch

 

The width of Quinn's tablecloth is 2.839 inch
