Answer: 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Law of Cosines:

c² = a² + b² - 2ab · cos C

12² = 6² + 8² - 2(6)(8)(cos C)

144 = 36 + 64 - 96 cos C

144 = 100 - 96 cos C

44 = -96 cos C

$-\dfrac{44}{96}=cosC\\\\\\cos^{-1}\bigg(-\dfrac{44}{96}\bigg)=C$

117° = C

Mallory is on a budget and wants to determine which cereal is a better buy. A 10-ounce box of Cereal A costs $2.70 and a 13-ounc

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Cereal A is cheaper by $0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a 10-ounce box of Cereal A = $2.70

So,

Cost of a 1-ounce box of Cereal A = $\frac{2.70}{10}=\$0.27$

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal A = $0.27(15)=\$4.05$

Also,

Cost of a 13-ounce box of Cereal B = $3.64

So,

Cost of a 1-ounce box of Cereal B = $\frac{3.64}{13}=\$0.28$

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal B = $=0.28(15)=\$4.2$

Here,

Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal B - Cost of a 15-ounce box of Cereal A = $4.2-4.05=\$0.15$

Therefore,

Cereal A is cheaper by $0.15
