Answer:
- $2.79 per bottle
- $0.186 per ounce
Step-by-step explanation:
When you talk about "unit price," you need to define the unit of interest. Unit prices on grocery store shelves don't always use the same unit, even for like items. Here it might be convenient to use any of the following as the "unit":
- 1 bottle
- 1 ounce
- 1 pint (16 ounces)
- 1 cup (8 ounces)
The "unit price" is computed as ...
unit price = (price for some number of units)/(the number of units)
The "number of units" may be larger, smaller, or equal to 1.
Then the price per cup (8 ounces) would be ...
unit price = (price for 15 oz)/(15/8 cups) = ($2.79)(8/15)
= $1.488 per cup
__
The price per ounce would be ...
unit price = ($2.79)/(15 oz) = $0.186/oz
__
We assume that the unit of interest is probably 1 ounce, but it could be something else. Your grader may expect the value to be rounded to the nearest cent, $0.19 per ounce.
tis a little of plain differentiation.
we know the radius of the cone is decreasing at 10 mtr/mins, or namely dr/dt = -10, decreasing, meaning is negative.
we know the volume is decreasing at a rate of 1346 mtr/mins or namely dV/dt = -1346, also negative.
so, when h = 9 and V = 307, what is dh/dt in essence.
we'll be needing the "r" value at that instant, so let's get it
now let's get the derivative of the volume of the cone

The vertex is (-1.5, -6.75). So the x-coordinate is -1.5. Hope this helps and if so please leave a good rating and thanks. I really appreciate it. Have a nice day!
