Answer:

Small flat rate box

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she sells necklaces we can assume that the question is missing spaces and the actual dimensions are 1 3/4inch by 2 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch. This being the case she can use the Small flat rate box from the local post office for her necklaces. This is the smallest flat rate packaging available aside from envelopes, but since the artist needs a 3dimensional box the envelopes would not work. This small flat rate box has the following dimensions  8 11⁄16″ x 5 7⁄16″ x 1 3⁄4″ it also can hold up to 70lbs which far exceeds the weight of the necklaces.

The washer in the image has an inner diameter of 1/4 inch. The outer diameter measures 3/4 inch, and the washer is 1/4 inch thic
Talja [164]

Answer:

  0.14 lb . . .  closest choice is 0.11 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The inside and outside radii are 1/8 in and 3/8 in, respectively. Then the area of the top of the washer is ...

  A = π(R² -r²) = π((3/8)² -(1/8)²) = π(9/64 -1/64) = π/8 . . . square inches

The height of the stack of 5 washers will be 5×(1/4 in) = 5/4 in. So, the volume of material in the stack of washers is ...

  V = Bh = (π/8)(5/4) = 5π/32 . . . cubic inches

The weight of material is the product of volume and density, so is ...

  W = (5π/32 in³)(0.285 lb/in³) ≈ 0.1399 lb ≈ 0.14 lb

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

Since this answer does not correspond to any of the offered choices, we suggest you ask your teacher to work this out for you. We suspect they will have difficulty justifying any of the answer choices shown here. (0.11 lb corresponds to 4 washers, not 5.)

"in a school, 25% of the teachers teach basic math. If there are 50 basic math teachers, how many are there in the school? "
AveGali [126]
The answer is 200.

The reason is because if you have 50 teachers, and that is 1/4 of the number of total teachers, then you would multiply the number of basic math teachers by four.
