Answer:

The unit rate is equal to $0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The unit rate is the ratio of two measurements in which the second term is equal to one

In this problem to find the unit rate, divide the total cost of cereal by the total weight of cereal

$\frac{2.10}{14}\frac{\$}{ounces} =0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$

therefore

The unit rate is equal to $0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$

$2.10/14oz
$0.3/2oz
$0.15/oz
So 15 cents per oz

Kerrie uses the work shown below to determine 35% of 280.

lys-0071 [83]

For this case we must find 35% of 280.

Kerrie gets 10% and then 25%. So:

10% of 280:

280 ------------> 100%

x -----------------> 10%

Where "x" represents the amount given by 10% of 280.

$x = \frac {10 * 280} {100}\\x = 28$

Thus, 10% of 280 is 28.

Now, we find 25% of 280:

280 ------------> 100%

x -----------------> 25%

Where "x" represents the amount given by 25% of 280.

$x = \frac {25 * 280} {100}\\x = 70$

Thus, 25% of 280 is 70.

So we have that 35% of 280 is given by:

$28 + 70 = 98$

So, Kerrie's solution is correct.

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare

larisa [96]

With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.

The length of the base of a rectangular prism is 9

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is 320 15/16 inches³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The length of the base of a rectangular prism is 9 7/8.

The width of the prism is 8 1/8.

And the height is 4 inches.

Now, to find the volume of the prism.

(Length) l = 9 7/8 = 79/8 inches.

(Width) w = 8 1/8 = 65/8 inches.

(Height) h = 4 inches.

So, by putting the formula to get the volume:

Volume = w×h×l.

$Volume=\frac{65}{8}\times 4\times \frac{79}{8}$

$Volume=320\frac{15}{16}$

Volume = 320 15/16 inches³.

Therefore, the volume of the prism is 320 15/16 inches³.
