You have been asked to analyze the popcorn recipes of three different local theatres in order to figure out which theatre has th

e best popcorn. In this case, the "best" popcorn is the most buttery! In your quest to find the best, you meet with each theatre manager individually and ask for the ratio of oil to popcorn kernels that they use in their recipes. Here are their responses.
The manager of Theatre A says that they usually go through about 15 cups of popcorn kernels and about 5 cups of oil each weeknight.
The manager of Theatre B says that they order 18 cups of oil and 72 cups of popcorn kernels each week.
The manager of Theatre C says that their concessions use 6 cups of oil and 32 cups of popcorn kernels on a busy Saturday.
You also ask about the amount of salt each theatre uses in their recipe. Their responses are below.

Theatre A uses 2 cups of salt for every 10 cups of oil.
Theatre B uses 1/8 cup salt for every cup of oil.
Theatre C uses 1 cup of salt for every 6 cups of oil.
For each of the following ratio problems, use a double number line or an equation to solve. Type your answers as numbers.

If Theatre A uses 27 cups of popcorn kernels, how many cups of oil will they use?

Victoria has $200 of her birthday gift money saved at home, and the amount is modeled by the function h(x) = 200. She reads abou
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

h(x) * s(x) = 200(1.05)^(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our interest equation is s(x) = (1.05)^(x - 1). This is actually a part of a bigger formula for calculating the amount of money accumulated including interest:

A = P(1 + r)^n, where A is the total, P is the principal amount (initial amount), r is the interest rate, and n is the time

Here, we technically already have the (1 + r)^n part; it's just (1.05)^(x - 1). The principle, though, will actually be the 200 because she starts out at $200.

Thus, to combine these, we simply multiply them together to get:

h(x) * s(x) = 200(1.05)^(x - 1)

Mary bought 4 gallons of milk for $10.00. Jill bought 2.5 gallons for $6.00.
RoseWind [281]

Step-by-step explanation:  

In order to find the better buy, we must find the cheaper unit price or price per gallon.  To find the price per gallon, divide the cost by the number of gallons.

Mary

Mary bought 4 gallons for $11.

The price is $11 and the gallons are 4.

Jill

Jill bought 2.5 gallons for $7.25

The price is $7.25 and the gallons are 2.5

Better buy

Mary paid $2.75 per gallon and Jill paid $2.90 per gallon. 2.75 is less than 2.90, so Mary had the better buy.

loris [4]
<span>A 96% confidence interval means that 96% of the time you can believe that the result will fall into a range of numbers. In the case of weight lifting this would mean that 96% of the time, the proportion of weight-lifting injuries were accidental would fall in between the two parameters set forth.</span>
