Answer:

It will cost $512.73

Step-by-step explanation:

9 in by 6 in sandbox cost $228

i.e., 9*6 = 54 in²

54 in² cost $228

1 in² will cost $228/54

≈ $4.22

If the new dimension is 13 1/2 in by 9 in

then area will be 13 1/2*9

27*9/2 = 121.5 in²

The cost of 121.5 in² will be

121.5*4.22 = $512.73

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer: (A) 19.3%

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

\text{Vodka: }2.5\text{ oz }\times\dfrac{\$35}{1\text{ liter }}\times\dfrac{1\text{ liter }}{33.814\text{ oz }}=\$2.59\\\\\text{Vermouth: }0.5\text{ oz }\times\dfrac{\$7.99}{1\text{ liter }}\times\dfrac{1\text{ liter }}{33.814\text{ oz }}=\$0.12\\\\\text{Olive: }\$0.15

Vodka + Vermouth + Olive = Total Cost

$2.59  +   $0.12      + $0.15 = $2.86

\dfrac{\text{cost to make}}{\text{selling price}} = \dfrac{\$2.86}{\$15} = 0.19 = 19\%

How to reduce into simpler terms.?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The simplest form of the fraction \frac{45}{100}  is  \frac{9}{20}.

i.e.

\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some simple observations regarding how to reduce a fraction into simpler terms:

  • A fraction is reduced to lowest or simplest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.
  • In order to reduce a fraction to lowest or simplest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by their (GCF). Note that (GCF) is also called Greatest Common Factor .

So, lets take a sample fraction and reduce into simpler terms.

Considering the fraction

\frac{45}{100}

\mathrm{Find\:a\:common\:factor\:of\:}45\mathrm{\:and\:}100\mathrm{\:in\:order\:to\:cancel\:it\:out}

\mathrm{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}45,\:100:\quad 5

\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:the\:numerator\:and\:the\:denominator}

45=5\cdot \:9\mathrm{,\:\quad }100=5\cdot \:20

so

\frac{45}{100}=\frac{5\cdot \:\:9}{5\cdot \:\:20}

\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:5

     =\frac{9}{20}

Therefore, the simplest form of the fraction \frac{45}{100}  is  \frac{9}{20}.

i.e.

\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}

icang [17]

Answer:

You need to put the question, but I'll try to help as much as I can without the question. y=5/2x, if you put the amount of gummy candy in lbs in the x's place, and you multiply the amount by 5/2, you will get the price.
