Hello!

Martin buys more fruit, because 6/3 is greater than 4/3. You can check which fraction is greater by converting it into a decimal, as decimals are sometimes easier to compare. 

4 / 3 = 1.3 (Repeating)

6 / 3 = 2

As you can see, 2 is greater than 1.3 Repeating, so 6/3 pounds are greater than 4/3 pounds.

Martin bought more fruit. If both fractions have a denomiator of 3, and Jack buys 4/3, and Martin buys 6/3, it's obviously Martin. 6 is more than 4. We don't have to worry about the denominator.

A grocery store sells a 6-pack of bottle water for $3.79, a 9-pack for $4.50, and a 12-pack for $6.89. Which package costs the l
stiks02 [169]
Cost per bottle

6 pack is 3.79 so the cost per bottle is 3.79/6=$0.631666666666667 per bottle

9 pack is 4.50 so the cost per bottle is 4.50/9=$0.50 per bottle

12 pack is 6.89 so the cost per bottle is 6.89/12=$0.574166666667 per bottle

0.63>0.57>0.50

the one that costs the least per bottle is the 9 pack which costs $0.50 per bottle

2. algebra

calculus, just take the deritivive and find wher it is 0
y=-0.2x+10
at x=50
sub 50 for x in original
y=250


algebra
for
y=a(x-h)²+k
(h,k) is vertex
k is maximum value


complete the square
y=(-0.1x²+10x)
y=-0.1(x²-100x)
take 1/2 of -100 and square it and add negative and positive inside
-100/2=-50, (-50)²=2500
y=-0.1(x²-100x+2500-2500)
factor perfect square
y=-0.1((x-50)²-2500)
exand
y=-0.1(x-50)²+250

vertex at (50,250)
producing 50 units yeilds a sale price of $250


max price is $250
