First, you divide the price by the amount of units in the pack. This is how you find how much one unit is worth in that pack. So for the first pack you divide 1.12 by three, and then you have .37333 repeating, which is about 38 cents. Next is the second pack, where we divide 4.38 by 12 which is .365, which is about 37 cents. The last pack is 8.68 divided by  24 which is .361, or about 36 cents. This means that the 24 pack is the best buy.
In real life you should also consider which would be too much for you or not enough. For example,  you might not even need 24 units of juice. You might only need 12 so you don't have too much extra. But hey, this is just a math problem ;)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 16.6km, and its area is 13.42km2. Find its length and width. length : km width : km
Otrada [13]

Answer:

l=5.12 & w=2.62

Step by step explanation:

A=l×w

13.42=lw

w=13.42/l

p = 2(l + w) \\ 16.6 = 2(l +  \frac{13.42}{l} ) \\ 16.6 = 2( \frac{ {l}^{2}  + 13.42}{l}) \\ 16.6 = 2(l + 13.42) \\ 16.6 = 2l + 26.84 \\ 2l = 26.84 - 16.6 \\ 2l = 10.24 \\ l =  \frac{10.24}{2}  \\ l = 5.12km

Since you have found the value of the length you can find the value.of the width.

w =  \frac{13.42}{l}  \\ w =  \frac{13.42}{5.12}  \\ w = 2.62km

Two trains travel directly toward each other. One of the trains travels at a rate of 12 km/h while the other travels at a rate o
Schach [20]
Write the equation of the first train: x = 12t
Write the equation of the second train: y = -20t+72, assuming the train one is at the origins when t = 0. 
Now solve the equation: 12t=-20t+72, 
32t = 72, then t = 2.25 hours. The two train meet after 2.25 hours. 
Now the equation of the <span>pigeon is like this: x = 48t. 
</span>Then for t = 2.25, we get
 x=2.25\times48=108 km

<span>The Hyde has flown 108 km when the trains meet.</span>

Please Help! I will give you a lot of points! (6.3)
Mandarinka [93]

Let x be the yearly salary of an architect. Then the yearly salary of a lawyer is 2x-20000.

We can build an equation now! x+(2x-20000)=211000, because the yearly salary of an architect plus the yearly salary of a lawyer is 211000.

We combine like terms to get 3x-20000=211000.

We add 20000 to both sides to get 3x=231000.

We divide both sides by 3 to get x=77000, so the average yearly salary of a lawyer is 77000.

Then, the average yearly salary of an architect is 2(77000)-20000=154000-20000=134000, so the average yearly salary of an architect is 134000.
