Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The jars of peanut butter that I buy cost $7.20 each and normally contain 500 grams.

At present, however, each jar contains an extra 20% free.

And additionally, the supermarket has a "buy 3 jars get another one free''.

Question asked:

By how much is the cost per 100 grams of peanut butter less than it normally is if I take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today?

Solution:

Cost of a jars of peanut = $7.20

Normally, weight of peanut butter in one packet = 500 gram

At supermarket offer, each jar contains an extra 20% free, means a packet  of peanut butter contains = 500 + 20% of 500                                                                                                            =500+500\times \frac{20}{100} =500+100=600\ gram

And extra benefit = buy 3 jars get another one free, means we will get 4 jars by just giving price of only 3 jars.

That means, total weight of peanut butter you are getting by giving 3 packet's price =  Each jar weigh \times number of jars

                       = 600 \times 4 = 2400 gram

<u>Cost of each packet will be same as previously as during the offer;</u> $7.20

Cost of 3 packet's peanut (2400 gram) =  7.20\times3=\$21.6

Now, we will calculate cost per 100 grams of peanut butter :

<u>During offer:</u>

Cost of 2400 grams of peanut butter = $21.6

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = \frac{21.6}{2400}

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = \frac{21.6}{2400}\times100=\frac{2160}{2400} =\$0.9

<u>Normal day:</u>

Cost of 500 grams of peanut butter = $7.20

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = \frac{7.20}{500}

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = \frac{7.20}{500}\times100=\frac{720}{500} =\$1.44

We found that cost of 100 gram of peanut butter in normal day is $1.44 while cost of 100 gram of peanut butter during offer is $0.9 means cost per 100 gram during offer is ($1.44 - $0.9 = )$0.54 less than cost during normal day.

<u>Conclusion:</u>

Therefore, cost per 100 grams of peanut butter is $0.54 less than it is normally if you take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today.

a wall is 2m at one end and 2.4m at the other end. the area of the wall is 26.4m squared. what is the length of the wall?
andrew11 [14]
Since the height is different on both ends, we can assume that the wall is a trapezoid. Knowing that, we can replace the measures we know in the formula and our onky variable is the length of the wall - we only need to isolate it. A= ((b+B)h)/2 26.4=((2+2.4)h)/2 52.8=4.4h h=12
