Answer:

<em>The suspect possesses 0.4 ounces of cocaine.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mass Units Conversion</u>

The mass can be expressed in several units like grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds, etc. Each unit can be converted to any other multiplying by a fixed number.

The international conventions state that 1 gr = 0.035274 ounces.

If a suspect is in possession of 10 grams of cocaine, its equivalent to ounces can be calculated as 10*0.035274=0.35 oz. Rounding to the nearest tenth it would be 0.4 oz.

Since 1/8 = 0.125 and 1/2 is 0.5, our subject should be charged as a Class C felony

Answer:

1. = station A

because 15 gallons = 0.75 discount at B but station A has a 1.50 discount at 15 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

2. for satation B you have to read the graph

but for station A it is unclear on the graph

a way to work it out is that you know that 10= 1.00 so 12 = 1.2

( divide 12 by 10 )

station B = discount for 12 gallons = 0.6

but Station A = discount for 12 gallons = 1.2

the difference is

1.2 - 0.6 = 0.6 discount
