Answer:

  • $2.79 per bottle
  • $0.186 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

When you talk about "unit price," you need to define the unit of interest. Unit prices on grocery store shelves don't always use the same unit, even for like items. Here it might be convenient to use any of the following as the "unit":

  • 1 bottle
  • 1 ounce
  • 1 pint (16 ounces)
  • 1 cup (8 ounces)

The "unit price" is computed as ...

  unit price = (price for some number of units)/(the number of units)

The "number of units" may be larger, smaller, or equal to 1.

Then the price per cup (8 ounces) would be ...

  unit price = (price for 15 oz)/(15/8 cups) = ($2.79)(8/15)

  = $1.488 per cup

__

The price per ounce would be ...

  unit price = ($2.79)/(15 oz) = $0.186/oz

__

We assume that the unit of interest is probably 1 ounce, but it could be something else. Your grader may expect the value to be rounded to the nearest cent, $0.19 per ounce.

Answer:

7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the order of operations.

We do the operation in the bracket first. So we are left with:

2 * (2) + 3

We multiply before we add, so:

4 + 3.

Finally, we add.

I don't understand this question but the company I choose was PepsiCo. The shares price is $146.02​
Anni [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  136.96754 shares, or maybe 136 shares

Step-by-step explanation:

At a cost of $146.02 per share, $20,000 will buy ...

  $20,000 / (146.02/share) = 136.96754 shares

__

Some accounts will let you purchase partial shares; others require you purchase whole shares. $20,000 is enough to pay for 136.96754 shares, but you may be able to purchase only 136 shares. (You would have $141.28 in cash remaining after that transaction.)

Some accounts manage shares in multiples of 0.001 shares; others may use more decimal places. Above, we have shown the quantity that spends the entire $20,000. Using fewer decimal places will leave some cash remaining.

We have assumed you're not paying any brokerage fees or loads that would reduce the amount of money that actually purchases shares.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Whenever you buy anything, the cost of more than one of it is the unit price times the number of units. (Quantity discounts may apply.) In like fashion, the cost of multiple shares of stock is the single-share cost multiplied by the number of shares. As with all multiplication relations, a corresponding division relation is <em>the number of shares is the total cost divided by the cost per share</em>.
