<u>Cold Farms: </u>

<u>Small box </u>

1 pint = $2.50

1 quart = $4.50

<u>Large Box</u>

1 quart = 2 pints .

2 pints  = $4.50

1 pint = $4.50 / 2 = $2.25

<u>Cone Dreams:</u>

<u>Small box </u>

1 quart = $4.25 and

1 pint = $4.25/2 =  $ 2.125

<u>Large Box</u>

1 gallon = $9.50.

1 gallon = 8 pints

8 pints = $9.50.

1 pint = $9.50 / 8 = $ 1.1875.


<h3>15) Therefore, large size container of Cold Farms ice cream is better deal for Sheldon because it cost $2.25 per pint of ice cream as compared to small box cost $2.50 per pint.</h3><h3 /><h3>16) Cone Dreams Large size container cost just $ 1.1875 per pint of ice cream. So, Cone Dreams Large size container is best deal.</h3>

Answer:

The larger size of the cold farm ice cream is the better deal . To get the equivalent volume of the small size to the large size , one needs to spend $2.5 + $2.5 = $5.0 where as for the larger size you will only spend $ 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price for cold farm ice cream for the small size is $2.5 for 1 pint and for the larger size it is $4.5 for 1 quarts. Sheldon wants to know the better deal for the size container of cold farm ice cream.

Firstly, the prices are in different volume unit we need to convert them to the same units.

1 pints = 0.5 quarts

That means small size of cold farm ice cream is $ 2.5 for 0.5 quart and larger size is $ 4.5 for 1 quart.

Small size  

$2.5 for 0.5 quart

$5.0 for 1 quart

Larger size  

$ 4.5 for 1 quart

The larger size of the cold farm ice cream is the better deal . To get the equivalent volume of larger size , one needs to spend $2.5 + $2.5 = $5.0 where as for the larger size you will only spend $ 4.5.

Nick is now seven times as old as Harry. In 6 years, Nick will be five times as old as Harry. How old will Harry be in 6 years?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

7x+6 = 5(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents Harry's age now, so 7x represents Nick's age now. (Nick is 7 times as old as Harry.)

In 6 years, Harry's age will be x+6.

In 6 years, Nick's age will be 7x+6, which is 5 times Harry's age at that time, 5(x+6). Hence an appropriate equation is ...

... 7x+6 = 5(x+6)

_____

Please note that finding the value of x does not give the answer to the question. We are asked for Harry's age in 6 years, so the answer is x+6 (=18).

Can someone answer this for me im really bad at math 6x+17
Maslowich

Answer:

It cannot be answered if we don't figure out what x means. IF we knew what X is we can multiply 6 by x and then add 7.

an example would be if x was 3. we could figure out the answer by just doing (6*3)+7=25
