Answer:

Cereal B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are two different rates for cereals A and B.

as Cereal A: 15oz for $2.95 or Cereal B: 32oz for $5.95

As such we cannot compare unless we make it unit rate for same number of units

Let us find unit oz rates

Cereal A per oz= \frac{2.95}{15} =0.1967dollars

Cereal B per oz = \frac{5.95}{32} =0.1859dollars

Comparing unit rates per ounce,

we find that Cereal B per oz is lower.

Answer is Cereal B.

Using a linear regression calculator. The best fit line obtained is :

ŷ = -1.618X + 215.636 ; which shows decrease in weight has the number of weeks grow.

Carters weight 15 Weeks into his diet :

X = 15

ŷ = -1.618(15) + 215.636

= 191.366

= 191 (nearest whole number)

Raymond used 36 cubes to build the first layer of a rectangular prism. The edge length of each cube was 1 inch. The finished pri
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Volume = 288in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base\ Cubes = 36

Layers = 8

Required

The volume of the prism

The number of base cubes represents the base area and the number of layers represents the height of the prism.

So, the volume is calculated as:

Volume = Base\ Cubes * Layers i.e Base Area * Heights

Volume = 36 * 8

Volume = 36in^2 * 8in

Volume = 288in^3
