Answer:

8th Month

Step-by-step explanation:

We will calculate the payments by both the method as shown below

Company A

$10,000 + $ 5000 = $ 15000

$ 15000 + $5000 = $20,000

$20,000+ $5000 = $25,000

$25,000 + $5000 = $30,000

$30,000 + $5000 = $35,000

$35,000 + $5000 = $40,000

$40,000 +  $5000 = $45,000

$45,000 + $5000 = $45,000 = $ 50,000

$ 50,000 + $ 5000 = $ 55,000

Company B

$ 500

2 x $ 500 = $1000

2 x $1000 = $2000

2 x $2000 = $4000

2 x $4000 = $8000

2 x $8000 = $ 16,000

2 x $ 16,000 = $ 32,000

2 x $ 32,000 = $ 64,000

2 x $ 64,000 = $128,000

Thus, it is the 8th month during which Company B's payment first exceed Company A's payment

A 250 ml bottle of water treatment liquid will treat up to 625 litres of water. Given that 1 cubic meter=1000 litres, how much t
kupik [55]
You will need:
(2240/625)*250=896 ml of treatment liquid.
If each bottle contains 250 ml you'll need 3.6 bottles (3 bottles and a bit more than half a bottle).

I do not think you need the conversion 1 cubic meter=1000 litres unless the volume of the tank is in cubic meters BUT 2240 cubic meters seems too large!
