48/6 = 8

He needs to buy 8 of the six pack size for a total of :

8 x 12.12 = $96.96

Or

48/ 4 = 12 Of the 4 packs for a total of

12 x 9.72 = $116.64

He would save

116.64 - 96.96 = $19.68 by buying 8 of the six packs.

Answer:

—————————————-

He saves $19.68

—————————————-

Hope this helps!!!!

—————————————-

Step-by-step explanation:

—————————————-

6 bottles for $12.12

Find the unit rate:

12.12/6

=2.02

This tells us that using this price, each bottle costs $2.02

—————————————-

4 bottles for $9.72

Find the unit rate:

9.72/4

=2.43

This tells us that using this price, each bottle costs $2.43

—————————————-

The first deal is better because you are paying less for each bottle.

—————————————-

So now you know which “deal to use,”

—the first one— (6 bottles for $12.12)

Since each bottle costs $2.02 here, you can multiply:

48 x $2.02 = $96.96

—————————————-

In the second deal, where 4 bottles cost 9.72 bucks,

Each bottle is for $2.43

48 x $2.43 = $116.64

—————————————-

How much does he save by going with the first deal?

$116.64 - $96.96 = $19.68

Anna71 [15]
<span>Tabia spent 15/24 of this week's allowance on gummy bears. She can calculate that by multiplying 3/4 times 5/6. To do that, she multiplies the top numbers of each fraction together (3 times 5 equals 15), and to get the top number of the fraction. Then she multiplies the bottom numbers together (4 times 6 equals 24) to get the bottom number.</span>

2. Miss. Mead pays Miss. Brown $125.00 per week. How much money must Miss. Brown take in for  services if Miss. Mead is to realize $50.00 profit on her work? (Conditions on salary are the same  as in problem 1)  

ODS

a. $275.00 b. $325.00 c. $250.00 d. $300.00

Answer:

d. $300.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a cosmetologist must double her salary before the employer can realize any profit from  his/her work, for Miss. Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, you would have to determine the amount that doubles the salary of the cosmetologist and add the $50 needed as profit:

g If a snowball melts so that its surface area decreases at a rate of 4 cm2/min, find the rate (in cm/min) at which the diameter
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Rate of change of the diameter is equal to 0.053cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

A snowball is of the shape of a sphere

Surface area of Sphere (S)= 4*pi*R^2

Rate of change of surface area

dS/dt = -4cm^2/min

the negative sign indicates the surface area is decreasing.

Radius = d/2 where d represents diameter

using this is the surface area equation

S = 4*pi*(d/2)^2

   = pi*d^2

dS/dt = 2*pi*d*d(d)/dt

4 = 2*pi*d*(d)/dt

d(d)/dt = 2/12*pi= \frac{1}{6pi} cm/min

so the rate of change of the diameter is equal to 0.053cm/min
