Answer:

Brand A

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

The question is  one of finding out what the unit cost is.

Brand A: $4.59 has a count of 40

Brand B: $3.99 has a count of 30

Brand A

unit = 4.59 / 40 = 0.115

<em>Rounded: 0.12</em>

Brand B

unit = 3.99 / 30 = 0.133

<em>rounded: 0.13</em>

Brand A even with proper rounding is the better buy

Answer:

  Brand A

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost comparison can be done a variety of ways. The most formal of solutions will calculate the cost per bag for the two brands.

<h3>Informal solution</h3>

The cost for 10 bags of Brand B is $3.99/3 = $1.33. The cost for 10 more bags (40 bags instead of 30) of Brand A is $4.59 -3.99 = $0.60. This is less than the $1.33 it would cost to buy 10 more bags of Brand B, so ...

  Brand A is the better buy

<h3>Formal solution</h3>

The cost per bag is found by dividing the cost by number of bags:

  Brand A: $4.59 / (40 bags) = $0.11475 per bag

  Brand B: $3.99 / (30 bags) = $0.133 per bag

13¢ per bag is more than 11¢ per bag, so Brand A is the better buy.

A game shop sells marbles in clear plastic cylinders. Four marbles fit across the diameter of the cylinder and 10 marbles fit fr
slega [8]
To start, you know that this question is asking for the surface area of one of the cylinders, and the formula to finding the surface area of a cylinder is A=2πrh+2<span>πr^2.

Now, to find the surface area, you first need to figure out the height of the plastic cylinder and its radius. 
Since you know that the diameter (twice the radius) of the cylinder is equivalent to 4 marbles, and each marble has a diameter of 2 cm, the diameter of the cylinder would be 8 cm. Then, to find its radius, you divide by 2, so its radius is 4.
Now, since you know that the height of the cylinder is 10 marbles, you multiply 10 by 2 to get that the height is 20 cm tall. 
Since you now have the values of the height and the radius, plug the values into the surface area of a cylinder formula (r is radius and h is height).
</span>A=2π(4)(20)+2π(4)^2.
<span>Assuming that pi is 3.14, when you simplify this using PEMDAS, you get 
502.4+100.48 which then simplifies to 602.88, the area of the plastic to make one cylinder.
