Answer:
The green would take 4 and the blue would take 16 times respectivly. I did it by finding the volumes of the cups in terms of pi, then dividing it by the volume of the sink.
Step-by-step explanation:
So the volume of the whole half sphere is 512pi.
Now we have to find the volumes of the cup.
Equation: 
Blue cup:

It would take 16 times to drain it completly.
Green cup:

It would take 4 times to drain it completly.
What exactly is your question?
Answer: yes it’s 78$
Step-by-step explanation: The difference is 42.00
I think she can add 5p more of orange which is 9p and 6p more water which is 8p. I'm pretty sure this works because 9 is the next closest multiple of 3 and 8 is one number less than that. Hope this helps!
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.
Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395. We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85. We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00. Altogether this gives us
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%. This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
