Answer: A. $5 × 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of cartons of specialty paper ordered = 24 cartons

Regular price for a carton = $6.88

Discount given off each carton = $1.75

Hence,

Discounted price per carton = $(6.88 - 1.75) = $5.13

Actual amount to be paid for the order :

Discounted price * number of cartons to be ordered

$5.13 * 24

Hence, a reasonable estimate will be :

$5.13 = $5( nearest whole number)

24 can be rounded to 25 (this covers for the $0.13 on the discounted cost per carton)

Reasonable estimate :

$5 × 25

Answer:

The answer is  A. $5 × 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the total number of cartons is 24

the price per carton originally is $6.88

the discount is $1.75

hence the company will have to pay 6.88-1.75= $5.13

hence the price per carton upon removal of the discount is  $5.13

for all 24 cartons, the company will have to pay 24*5.13  

A reasonable estimate from the given option is  

A. $5 × 25

Answer:

<h3>   __</h3><h3>0.63</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

7/11 = no, add 0

70/11 = 6, so 0.6, remainder is 4, add 0

40/11 = 3, so 0.03, remainder is 7, add 0

70/11 = 6... and it goes on

<h3>The answer is 0.63 bar notation on both 6 and 3</h3>

It takes 12 cups of chicken broth to make a chicken soup recipe. How much is this in quarts?
slava [35]
3 quarts.

4 cups equal 1 quart according to the US standards.
Using that, we get an equation like:
4c = 1q
if you want 12 cups, you have to multiply the left side by 3 meaning you would also have to multiply the right side by 3.
3(4c) = 3(1q)
12c = 4q
you get 12 cups equals 4 quarts.

Y is inversely proportional to (x+2)² when x=1, y=2
REY [17]

Answer:

y = 18 / (x + 2)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Inversely proportional

y * (x + 2)² = k

when x=1, y=2

k = 2 * (1 + 2)²

k = 18

-----------------------

y * (x + 2)² = 18

Divide both sides by (x + 2)²

y = 18 / (x + 2)²

Simplify the difference. (–7x – 5x^4 + 5) – (–7x^4 – 5 – 9x)
sineoko [7]

Answer: 2x^4+2x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the mulplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-

Knowing this, you can distributive the negative sign. Then you get:

(-7x- 5x^4 + 5) - (-7x^4 - 5 - 9x)=-7x- 5x^4 + 5 +7x^4 + 5 + 9x

Now you need to add the like terms. Then:

=2x+2x^4+10

Finally, you can order the polynomial obtained in descending order. Therefore, the answer is:

=2x^4+2x+10
