Answer:
shop b
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find for example how much 100 grams of peanut butter cost in each shop using a proportion
shop A 100 : 250 = x : 325
x = (325 * 100) / 250 = $130
shop B 100 : 340 = x : 408
x = (408 * 100)/ 340 = $120
We discovered that shop B is cheaper
Answer: 0.403 / 100 = 0.00403
Hope this helps ♥️

Answer:
P is exactly 3km east from the oil refinery.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's d be the distance in km from the oil refinery to point P. So the horizontal distance from P to the storage is 3 - d and the vertical distance is 2. Hence the diagonal distance is:

So the cost of laying pipe under water with this distance is

And the cost of laying pipe over land from the refinery to point P is 400000d. Hence the total cost:

We can find the minimum value of this by taking the 1st derivative and set it to 0

We can move the first term over to the right hand side and divide both sides by 400000


From here we can square up both sides






d = 3
So the cost of pipeline is minimum when P is exactly 3km east from the oil refinery.
