If the point of the assignment is to get the most amount of cheese per dollar the answer is a.

You just divide the price with the number of ounces you buy and that will give you the price per ounce.

a = 5/(4*5) = $0.25 per ounce
b = 3.24/12 = $0.27 per ounce
c = 4.19/16 = 0.261875

therefore a is the best bang for the buck

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

c.

The 16ounce container is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know which container has the better price, you first need to divide prices per ounces.

a= 5/(4*5)=0.25\\b=3.24/12=0.27\\c=4.19/16=0.26

Now you want to know which is the better buy. For that, you want to find out which one gets the most product at the lowest price.

  • a: you need to expend $20 to get 20oz
  • b: you need to expend $3.24 to get 12oz
  • c: you need to expend $4.19 to get 16oz

If you want to expend less to get more, the right answer is C.

If p q r is prime numbers such that pq+r=73, what is the least possible value of p+q+r
Jobisdone [24]
The answer to this question would be: p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58

In this question, p q r is a prime number. Most of the prime number is an odd number. If p q r all odd number, it wouldn't be possible to get 73 since
odd x odd + odd= odd + odd = even
Since 73 is an odd number, it is clear that one of the p q r needs to be an even number. 

There is only one odd prime number which is 2. If you put 2 in the r the result would be:
pq+2= 73
pq= 71
There will be no solution for pq since 71 is prime number. That mean 2 must be either p or q. Let say that 2 is p, then the equation would be: 2q + r= 73

The least possible value of p+q+r would be achieved by founding the highest q since its coefficient is 2 times r. Maximum q would be 73/2= 36.5 so you can try backward from that. Since q= 31, q=29, q=23 and q=19 wouldn't result in a prime number r, the least result would be q=17
r= 73-2q
r= 73- 2(17)
r= 73-34=39

p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58

A ladder is placed with its foot 5m from the bottom of a wall 12m high. The top of the ladder just
Stels [109]

Answer:

13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right triangle with the wall that has legs of 5 and 12. We need to solve for the length of the ladder, which in this case, is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. You could use the Pythagorean Theorem but there's an easier way to do this. We can use the 5 - 12 - 13 Pythagorean triple so we know that the length of the ladder is 13 m.
