Answer:

8 packs of bottled water and 14 packs of candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided,

Each pack of water bottles = 35 bottles

Each pack of candy = 20 candy

Since quantity of candy in each pack is small than quantity of water bottle in each pack, in order to have same quantity in numbers of both bottles and candies,

Purchase quantity of candy packs shall be more than the pack of water bottles.

Further, with this option 1 and 2 are not valid as candy packs are same or less than packs of water bottle.

In option 3 and 4, option 3 have smaller quantities as provided manager bought the least possible quantity.

Accordingly

Option 3

8 packs of water bottle = 8 \times 35 = 280 \ water\ bottles

14 packs of candy = 14 \times 20 = 280 \ candies

Since the quantities of water bottles and candies are same this is an opt answer.

You have to divide the amount of money by the pack number. So A would be 0.25 cents per soda. B would be 0.25 cents per soda. C would be 0.26 cents per soda. And finally, D would be 0.22 cents per soda. Therefore Store D would be the best buy.

Hope this helps!!!!!!!!! ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊

7x+5=2x-35 <br> What is the answer
Mnenie [13.5K]
7x + 5 = 2x - 35


=> 7x - 2x = - 35 - 5


=> x( 7 - 2 ) = - ( 35 + 5 )


=> x( 5 ) = - ( 40 )


=> x × 5 = - 40


= >x = \frac{ - \cancel{40} \: \: \: ^{8} }{ \cancel{5}} \\ \\ \\ = > x = 5

x = 5



Therefore the value of x in the given equation 5

A thermos in the shape of a cylinder is filled with coffee. The height of the cylinder is 12 inches and its radius is 2 inches.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Option C is correct

Volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the cylinder is given by:

V =\pi r^2h

Where

V is the volume of the cylinder

r is the radius

h is the height of the cylinder respectively

As per the statement:

A thermos in the shape of a cylinder is filled with coffee.

the height of the cylinder is 12 inches and its radius is 2 inches

⇒ h = 12 inches and r = 2 inches.

Substitute the given values and use \pi = 3.14 in [1]

then;

V =3.14 \cdot 2^2 \cdot 12

V =3.14 \cdot 48

Simplify:

V  ≈150.8 inches.

Therefore, the volume of coffee in the thermos is, 150.8 cubic inches
