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.
Answer:
729
Step-by-step explanation:
I have not done this in some time so the terms may be a bit unconventional, but they work. The key to this is multiplying by -3.
1*(-3) = -3
-3*(-3) = 9
And so on.
1, -3, 9, -27, 81, -243, 729
Answer:
The sampling method applied is Cluster sampling.
Step-by-step explanation:
A cluster sampling method is the type of sampling where first the entire population is divided into homogeneous groups. Then a random sample of these groups are selected.
After selecting a sample of groups, a random sample of fixed size is selected from each group.
In this case all freshmen are first divided into 30 sections, then 4 random sections are selected and the students in those 4 sections are sampled.
The sampling method applied is Cluster sampling.
Answer: 658 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of ways the number "r" items can be chosen from the available number "n", the combination formula for selection is used. This formula is denoted as:
nCr = n! / (n-r)! × r!
Where n! = n×(n-1)×(n-2) ... ×3×2×1.
If we have 6 accounting majors and 7 finance majors and we are to choose a 7-member committee from these with at least 4 accounting majors on the committee, then the possibilities we have include:
[4 accounting majors and 3 finance majors] Or [5 accounting majors and 2 finance majors] or [ 6 accounting majors and 1 finance major].
Mathematically, this becomes:
[6C4 × 7C3] + [6C5 × 7C2] + [6C6×7C1]
525 + 126 + 7 = 658 ways.
Note: it is 6C4 because we are choosing 4 accounting majors from possible 6. This applies to other selection possibilities.
The price of the hot dogs is $1.50 and $1 for soft drinks.
$9(6 hot dogs)+$4(4 soft drinks)=$13
$4.50(3 hot dogs)+$4(4 soft drinks)=$8.50
