Jian’s family sells honey from beehives. They collected 3,311 ounces of honey from the beehives this season. They will use the h

oney to completely fill 4-ounce jars or 6-ounce jars. Jian’s family will sell 4-ounce jars for $5 each or 6-ounce jars for $8 each. Jian says if they use only 4-ounce jars, they could make $4,140 because 3,311 / 4 =827 R3. That rounds up to 828, and 828 multiplied by $5 is $4,140. Part A-Explain the error that Jian made when finding the amount of money his family could make if they use only 4-ounce jars. Enter your explanation in the space provided. Part B- Explain how to determine the money Jian’s family could make if they use only 6-ounce jars. Include the total amount of money and the total number of 6-ounce jars in your explanation.

Answer:

A.  Jian rounded the number of 4-ounce jars to 828 which is wrong. There are only 827 jars that can be completely filled.

B. Total number of 6-ounce jars = 551

Total money earned from 6-ounce jars = $4408

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Jian's family's collection = 3311 ounces

Number of 4-ounce jars = \frac{3311}{4}

= 827.75

Jian rounded it to 828 which is wrong. There are 827 jars that can be completely filled.

Cost per 4-ounce jar = $5.

Total cost = 827 × 5 = 4135


B. Now, number of 6-ounce jars =  \frac{3311}{6}

= 551.83

≅ 551 jars

Cost per 6-ounce jar = $8

Total cost = 551 × 8 = 4408

Answer: The answers are in the photo. (They are color-coded.)

Step-by-step explanation:

A monarchy, democracy, and communism are different ways to run a government.

A monarchy is usually ruled by someone of royalty, like a king or queen. Typically, they inherit all the power and get to make all the decisions, whether their people like it or not.

In a democracy, the people have many liberties and rights. They get to vote for candidates that represent them that could get elected as a president, minister, mayor, etc. Those elected have to listen to what their people want.

In communism, the government gets to make all the decisions whether it benefits the people or not. This is runned by a single-party, meaning no other parties are allowed to be developed or run.

Obasi earns 150%, percent of his regular hourly wage while working overtime. What fraction of his regular hourly wage does Obasi
hammer [34]

Obasi earns 150% of his regular hourly wage while working overtime.

Let us convert percentage into fraction first:

To convert a percentage into fraction we need to use the following formula:

a%=\frac{a}{100}

Here, he earns 150% of his hourly wage while working overtime:

So,

150%==\frac{150}{100} =\frac{3}{2} =1.5

Obasi earns \frac{3}{2} of his hourly earnings or 1.5 times of his hourly earnings while working overtime.

What is the answer and how do I solve?
8_murik_8 [283]
Because it is a 90° angle and the legs are congruent, the legs intersect with the hypotenuse at the same angle, so the other, unnamed angle at the bottom left is equal to x.

Now we can state that:

2x + 90 = 180
2x = 90
x = 45
