Answer:
144 cloves
Step-by-step explanation:
You separate 42 bulbs of garlic into two groups:one for planting and one for cooking.
We have a ratio of planting to cooking
Planting : Cooking
You will plant 3 bulbs for every 4 bulbs that you will use for cooking.
Hence: 3 : 4
The total of their proportion = 3 + 4 = 7
Hence:
The number of garlic you plant =
3/7 × 42 = 18 bulbs of garlic
The number of garlic you use to cook =
4/7 × 42 = 24 bulbs of garlic
We are also told that:
Each bulb has about 8 cloves. How many cloves of garlic will you plant?
From the calculation above , we know the number of bulbs of garlic been planted
= 18 bulbs.
Hence:.
1 bulb = 8 cloves
18 bulbs = x
x = 8 cloves × 18 bulbs
x = 144 cloves
Therefore, you will plant 144 cloves of garlic
The interest rate is B. 4%
Given:
Principal = 450
Interest = 126
term = 7
rate = ?
Simple Interest is computed by multiplying the Principal, rate, and term.
Interest = P × r × t
126 = 450 × r × 7
126 = 3150r
r = 126/3150
r = 0.04 x 100% = 4%
To check:
I = 450 × 0.04 x 7
I = 18 × 7
I = 126
110% =1.10
multiply the old price by that
2.85 *1.10 = 3.135
round to 3.14
new price is $3.14
The answer is II and III, which is the last choice from above. This is because the symbol "less than (or equal to)" indicated a conjunction, which means we have to take into account that the absolute value can be less than or equal to 15, and greater than or equal to -15. This solution set falls in between the two values, hence, the conjunction.
