No 12.14 is not bigger than 12.44
12.14 < 12.44
This sets up as a very commonly used proportion.
90 oz / 18.95 = 1 oz / x Cross multiply
90 x = 18.95 Divide by 90
x = 18.95 / 90
x = 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
So each ounce of shampoo costs 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.
This is a very handy way to check best deals. Stores have trained us for years to believe that the more we buy of a brand, the better the price. It isn't always true. Sometimes buying the smaller quantity is the better deal. There is only one way to be sure and that's to do a proportion like this one.
Try this is an example. The same company makes a smaller container of shampoo of 45 oz for 9.15. How much is 1 oz and which is the better deal? You should get 0.20333 dollars so this is marginally (just) the better deal.
Area of a trapezoid is A=height over 2 B1 +B2, so 10+10=20, then 20(8)=160, 160/2=80. Answer is b.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>A true proportion is a set of ratios that equal each other.</em>
<em> </em>For example, 1:2=2:4 is a proportion.
As we look through the list, we observe only B equals each other. Imagine 3:4 and 9:12 as a fraction. (¾ and 9/12). If we reduce 9/12, we get ¾. Thus, 3:4 = 9:12:)
I hope this helps!
Answer:
-914
Step-by-step explanation:
f(n)=-5f(n-1)-n
f(2)= -5f(1) -2 = -5(7) - 2 = -37
f(3) = -5f(2) - 3 = -5(-37) - 3 = 182
f(4) = -5f(3) - 4 = -5(182) - 4 = -914
