Answer:

The waste management company employs 125000 workers and the recycling industry employs 1150000 workers.

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven:

The recycling industry employs approximately 1,025,000 more workers than the waste management company.

Together they provide 1,275,000 jobs.

Now, to find how many jobs does each industry provide.

Let the waste management company employs workers be x.

And the recycling industry employs be 1,025,000+x.

Total they provide = 1,275,000.

According to question:

x+(x+1025000)=1275000.

2x+1025000=1275000.

Subtracting both sides by 1025000 we get:

2x=250000.

Dividing both sides by 2 we get:

x=125000.

So, the waste management company employs workers = 125,000.

And, the recycling industry employs workers = 1,025,000+125,000=1150000.

Therefore, the waste management company employs 125000 workers and the recycling industry employs 1150000 workers.

• Chandra bought a 2-liter bottle of
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

1 liter = 33.8 fl oz

Hence

2 liter = 33.8 * 2 = 67.6 fl oz

Now, we need to determine, how many 8 fl oz glasses can be filled with 67.6 fl oz of juice. For that, we need to divide total amount of juice (in fl oz) by 8. We will get:

\frac{67.6}{8}=8.45

So there is enough juice to fill around 8.5 glasses, but we need to know how many FULL GLASSES can be filled, NOT PARTIAL.

Thus, we can say:

8 glasses max can be filled with 2 Liters of juice

Answer choice D is right
