Answer:
The 16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese is the better buy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Even though 8-oz is half the amount of 16-oz, that doesn't mean it's cheaper. Let's find the amount of and 8-oz bottle when a 16-oz bottle is $5.78:
16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese = $5.78
A price of an 8-oz bottle when 16-oz is divided by 2:
16 ÷ 5.78 = $2.76
The original price of the 8-oz bottle should've been $2.76 but it's more expensive due to VAT.
So the 8-oz bottle is more expensive, therefore the 16-oz bottle is the better buy!
Answer:
Perpendicular!
Step-by-step explanation:
If they were parallel they would have the exact same slope. If they are perpendicular their slopes would be opposite reciprocals of each other... which they are. Another trick to tell if two slopes are perpendicular is to multiply them by each other and if the answer equals -1 they are perpendicular:
7/8 • -8/7 = -1/1 = -1
Answer:
a = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a multi-step equation using the distributive property and rational coefficents (fractions). The first step is to complete the distributive property on both sides of the equation and multiply each term in the expression in parenthesis by the constant on the outside. (3/4 x 2a) - (3/4 x 6) +1/2 = (2/5 x 3a) + (2/5 x 20). When we multiply and simplify, we get 3/2a - 9/2 + 1/2 = 6/5a + 8. Next step is to combine like terms: 3/2a - 8/2 = 6/5a +8. We then need to isolate the variable by using inverse operations: 3/10a = 12, then solve for 'a' by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal (10/3) to get a = 40.

Answer:
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
0.06 is one-tenth of the number that is 10 times bigger than 0.06.
0.06 * 10 = 0.6
0.06 is one-tenth of 0.6.
