An online retailer sells two packages of protein bars.

Mathematics

In order to find the price per bar, we divide the price by the amount of bars.  For the first one:

15.37/10 = $1.54 per bar

The second package:

15.35/12 = $1.28 per bar.

The 10-pack costs $1.54 per bar and the 12-pack costs $1.28 per bar.  The 12-pack has the better price per bar.

Now, let's look at the price per ounce.  We do this in a similar way.  We find the total amount of ounces in the package, and divide the price by the number of ounces.

In the first package, we multiply 10*2.1=21.  We have 21 ounces in the first package.  Now we divide 15.37/21.  In the first package, we have 0.73 dollars per ounce.

Now, let's look at the second package.  We start by multiplying 1.4*12=16.8.  There are 16.8 ounces in the package.  Now, we divide 15.35/16.8=0.91.  So, in the second package, we have 0.91 dollars per ounce.

The cost per ounce of the 10-pack is $0.73 and the cost per ounce of the 12-pack is $0.91.  The first package has the better price per ounce.

The better explanation is the second one, because I prefer the lower price per ounce, I think that the 1st pack is the better buy.

What is the solution for 2x -4= -8
scoray [572]

Answer:

  x = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

  3x +  9 = 153

 

subtract 9 from both sides               -9       -9

 

                                                     3x = 144

 

divide both sides by 3                    3x/3 = 144/3

2x + (x + 9) = 153

 

2(48) + (48 + 9) = 153

 

96 + 57 = 153

 

153 = 153

64 = 4(p + 2) + 24 please solve step by step
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -16 = -16

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -16  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   6 .

     -16    +    1    =    -15

     -8    +    2    =    -6

     -4    +    4    =    0

     -2    +    8    =    6    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -2  and  8

                    p2 - 2p + 8p - 16

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   p • (p-2)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   8 • (p-2)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (p+8)  •  (p-2)

            Which is the desired factorization
