One 16-oz can of vegetable soup cost $1.78. Two pints of vegetable soup cost $3.17. Which option is the better deal?

1 answer:

8 0

One 16 oz can of veggie soup cost $ 1.78......1.78/16 = 0.11 per oz

1 pint = 16 oz......so 2 pints = (2 * 16) = 32 oz

so 32 oz ( or 2 pints) of veggie soup cost $ 3.17.....3.17/32 = 0.10 per oz

so the better deal (the cheapest one) is the 2 pints for $ 3.17

Answer:

The true statement is Line h has points on planes R, P, and T

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is the attached figure

According to the graph, we will check which option is true.

a. Line h intersects line f at two points, A and B (Wrong)

Because: h intersects line f at B only.

b. Line h is the intersection of planes R and T (Wrong)

Because: g is the intersection of planes R and T

c. Line h intersects plane P at point C (Wrong)

Because: h intersects plane P at point B

d. Line h has points on planes R, P, and T (True)

Because h has the point B on the plane P, h has the point A on the plane T

and the points of h on the plane R

Solve the following quadratic equation using the quadratic formula.

sdas [7]

$ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a};\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}$

 $5x^2-8x+5=0\to a=5;\ b=-8;\ c=5\\\\\Delta=(-8)^2-4\cdot5\cdot5=64-100=-36\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{-36}=6i$

$x_1=\dfrac{-(-8)-6i}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{8-6i}{10}=\dfrac{4-3i}{5}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-(-8)+6i}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{8+6i}{10}=\dfrac{4+3i}{5}$

Answer:

well you would need to look at how much he gets a weekend, and then worry anout the tips.

Step-by-step explanation:

He gets paid $80 each weekend, and a 15% with tips.

you would need to figure out the tips, by taking the $725 and timesing it by .15 for the percent.

which would be 108.75

you would now take 108.75 and add 80 to get what he made that weekend.

108.75+80 = 188.75 dollars

ella [17]

Answer: if you have infinity points, which i will asume are the events, they cant have the same probability because then the probability will not be normalized, because in graph of prob vs variable, you will se infinite area under the curve if the probability is constant.

And yes, can all points have positive probability of occurring, but besides you medium value (the bell for example) you will see an asintotic decrease to the zero.

Answer:

$3100 is invested at 9%

$4900 is invested at 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take "x" be the amount invested at 9%.

(x + 1800) is invested in another account at 11%.

The interest amount earned by the two accounts is $818.

Here we can use the simple interest formula and find the amount invested in each account.

Simple interest (I) = , where P- is the principal , N is the number of years and R is the interest rate.

Simple interest =

0.09x + 0.11(x+1800) = 818

Now we have to simplify and find the value of x .

Use the distributive property and simplify the second term.

0.09x + 0.11x + 198 = 818

0.2x + 198 = 818

0.2x =818 - 198

0.2x = 620

x = 620/0.2

x = 3100.

So $3100 is invested at 9%

x + 1800 = 3100 + 1800

= $4900

$4900 is invested at 11%

Hope this helped.
