The cost of the packaging will be D. 1/4x²/x + 2.

<h3>How to calculate the cost?</h3>

From the information given, the cost of packing a box of chocolates is given by 1/4x², where x is the number of chocolates and a box can never have fewer than 3 chocolates.

The weight of the box is also given as x+2. The cost of the packaging will be:

= Cost of packing a box of chocolate / Weight of a box of chocolate

= 1/4x²/x + 2.

In conclusion, the correct option is D.

In a race between 18 people, how many ways can the top 5 finishers be arranged?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is permutation, since order matters.  The formula for us is

₁₈P₅ = \frac{18!}{(18-5)!} which simplifies to

₁₈P₅ = \frac{18*17*16*15*14*13!}{13!}

The factorial of 13 cancels out on the top and bottom leaving you with

₁₈P₅ = 18 × 17 × 16 × 15 × 14

which comes to 1,028,160 ways

Another way to look at it is:  the first 5 people of 18 finish and the others you don't care about.  Once the first place person is first, there are only 4 of the 18 left to finish in second place.  Then there are only 3 left to finish in third place, etc.  So if we use that reasoning, we don't even need to use the formula, we can just say

18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14 and those are the first 5 people of 18 to finish.
