Answer:
You would need 18 quarts of sparkling water to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/2 ---------> 3/4
x --------------> 9
We clear the value of x:
x = ((9) / (3/4)) * (1 1/2)
Rewriting we have:
x = ((9) * (4/3)) * (1 1/2)
x = (36/3) * (1 1/2)
x = (12) * (1 1/2)
x = (12) * (3/2)
x = 18

Answer:
The student added the discount instead of subtracting the discount.
They also did not calculate the tax correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price is 499
Discount = original price * percent off
Discount = 499 * .18
=89.82
The sale price = original price minus the discount
sale price = 499-89.82
sale price = 409.18
Sales tax = sale price * tax rate
= 409.18 * 8.875%
=409.18*.08875
=36.314725
Rounding to the nearest cent
36.31
Final cost = sale price + sales tax
=409.18+36.31
445.49

days to finish the house.
So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be 
Thus, Option D is the correct answer.
