The best deal is offered by the Store Z

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We have to find which store offers the best deal

This is found by calculating the unit rate of each store

Unit rate of each store means price per can .i.e price of 1 can

<h3><u>Store X: 4 cans for $2.48</u></h3>

Therefore, store X sells 4 cans for $ 2.48

Price of 1 can is found by dividing 2.48 by 4

\text{Price of 1 can } = \frac{2.48}{4} = 0.62

Thus unit rate of store X is $ 0.62 per can

<h3><u>Store Y: 5 cans for $3.00</u></h3>

Therefore, store Y sells 5 cans for $ 3.00

Price of 1 can is found by dividing 3.00 by 5

\text{Price of 1 can } = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6

Thus unit rate of store Y is $ 0.6 per can

<h3><u>Store Z: 59 cents per can</u></h3>

1 cents is equal to 0.01 dollar.

59 cents = 0.59 dollar

Thus unit rate of store Z is $ 0.59 per can

Comparing unit rate of store X, Y, Z

0.62 > 0.6 > 0.59

Thus, unit rate of store Z is lower than store Y and store X

Therefore, the best deal is offered by the Store Z

The diameter of a basketball rim is 18 inches. A standard basketball has a circumference of 30 inches. What is the distance betw
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Diameter of the basketball rim = 18 inches

Circumference of the standard basketball = 30 inches

Area of circle = π r²  

Basketball rim = 3.14 * (18/2)² = 3.14 * 9² = 3.14 * 81 = 254.34 in²

Circumference of a circle = 2 π r

30 = 2 * 3.14 * r

r = 30 / (2*3.14) = 30 / 6.28 = 4.78 inches

Standard basketball = 3.14 * (4.78)² = 3.14 * 22.85 = 71.75 in²

254.34 - 71.75 = 182.59 in²
