Answer:

  a. $0.47 per ounce

  b. $0.36 per ounce

  c. the gallon size costs less per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit rate is a rate that is expressed with one unit in the denominator. That is, it is <some amount> per unit. The <some amount> value will generally depend on what unit is chosen. This problem suggests the desired unit is 1 oz of paint.

__

<h3>a.</h3>

Unit cost for a quart:

  ratio = cost/ounces = $14.99/(32 oz) ≈ $0.468/oz ≈ $0.47/oz

__

<h3>b.</h3>

Unit cost for a gallon:

  ratio = cost/ounces = $45.99/(120 oz) ≈ $0.359/oz ≈ $0.36/oz

__

<h3>c.</h3>

The cost per ounce is less for the gallon size. If at least 3 quarts of paint is needed, then buying it in the gallon size will cost less.

If less than 3 quarts are needed, then a gallon container will cost more than is necessary for the paint required. The "better deal" depends on the amount of paint required.

Which of the following is an arithmetic sequence?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

And arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the difference between each of the numbers are constant.

It is not A, because the difference between 3 and 9 is positive 6, and the difference between 9 and 81 is positive 72.

It is not C, because the difference between 4 and 1 is -3, and the difference between 1 and 4 is positive 3.

It is not D, because the difference between 2 and -2 is -4, and the difference between -2 and 2 is positive 4.

And it is B because the numbers maintain a constant difference between each other, which is -3.
