Answer:

Both sizes are better because they cost Same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A coupon offers $1.00 off the 16

Quantity Price

Pint 16 $3.98

Quart 32 $5.98

If he gets $1 off for the 16-ounce size. The price will be:

3.98-1=2.98

He needs to pay $2.98 for 16-ounce pint.

Now find which one is better by calculating the unit rate.

$\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{2.98 }{16}\approx0.186$

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

For Quart 32 find the unit rate as shown:

$\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{5.98}{32}\approx0.186$

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

Hence, both of the size are better as the unit rate is same.

Which dimensions can create more than one triangle? A. Three angles measuring 75°,45°, and 60°. B. 3 sides measuring 7, 10, 12?

NeTakaya

This is vague. Any dimensions that make a triangle can make more than one, just draw another right next to it. What's really being asked is which dimensions can make more than one non-congruent triangle.

A. Three angles measuring 75°,45°, and 60°.

That's three angles, and 75+45+60 = 180, so it's a legit triangle. The angles don't determine the sides, so we have whole family of similar triangles with these dimensions. TRUE

B. 3 sides measuring 7, 10, 12?

Three sides determine the triangles size and shape uniquely; FALSE

C. Three angles measuring 40°, 50°, and 60°? 

40+50+60=150, no such triangle exists. FALSE

D. 3 sides measuring 3,4,and 5

Again, three sides uniquely determine a triangle's size and shape; FALSE

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have:

0.1x + 0.25y = 19.9 and

x + y = 100
