<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.

A newspaper and three hot chocolates cost $7. Two newspapers and two hot chocolates cost $6. How much does one hot chocolate cos
pochemuha

Answer:

the cost of one hot chocolate is $2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the hot chocolate cost and y be the newspaper cost.

Given:

A newspaper and three hot chocolates cost $7

So, the equation is

3x+y=7--------(1)

Two newspapers and two hot chocolates cost $6

So, the second equation is.

2x+2y=6---------(2)

Find one hot chocolate cost?

Solve equation 1 for y.

3x+y=7

y=7-3x

Put y value in equation 2

2x+2(7-3x)=6

2x+14-6x=6

14-4x=6

-4x=6-14

-4x=-8

negative sign is cancelled both side.

x=\frac{8}{4}

x=2

Therefore, the cost of one hot chocolate is $2.

The difference of 3 times a number and 15 is no less than the square of the number.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

(B) The inequality that represents this relationship is 3x  < x^2 +15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the given number = x

⇒ 3 times the given number = 3 (x)  = 3x

Square of the given number = (x)^2  = x^2

Now, According to the question:

The difference of (3 x) and 15 is no less than x^2

⇒ 3x - 15 < x^2\\ \implies 3x  < x^2 +15

or, 3x  < x^2 +15

Hence, the given inequality is represented as 3x  < x^2 +15
