To answer this question, you need to understand how to change the description into an equation. Let say that Herbert's container volume is H and Betty's container is B. Then, from the problem you can get this equation:
1. B= 200 (Betty's container hold 200 milli liters)
2. H= 7/8 B (Herbert's container hold 7/8 as much juice)
If you put the 1st equation into the 2nd, you will get:
H=7/8 (200)= 175
Then the two containers will hold
H+B= 200 + 175= 375milli liters

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse
∆ABC, where lets say B is the right angle.
cos C = adjacent/hypotenuse = BC/AC

Answer:
4/27 ezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
9.5 +27b =4000
a=80 shares of stock A
b=120 shares of stock B
Let a be the number of shares of stock B
B the number of shares of stock B
A+B=200
