1 min = 4cups
60 min = 1hr
4×60 =240
1hr=240 cups
2hrs = 480 cups
1 gallon = 16 cups
480/16 = 30 gallons

The caterer should bring 30 gallons of tea

In 2 hours you would need 30 gallons of tea.
Explanation:
4cups/per minute x 1 gallon/16cups x 60minutes/1 hour = 240gallons/16hours
240gallons/16hours = 15gallons/1 hour
15gallons/1 hour x 2 = 30 gallons/2 hours

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The jars of peanut butter that I buy cost $7.20 each and normally contain 500 grams.

At present, however, each jar contains an extra 20% free.

And additionally, the supermarket has a "buy 3 jars get another one free''.

Question asked:

By how much is the cost per 100 grams of peanut butter less than it normally is if I take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today?

Solution:

Cost of a jars of peanut = $7.20

Normally, weight of peanut butter in one packet = 500 gram

At supermarket offer, each jar contains an extra 20% free, means a packet  of peanut butter contains = 500 + 20% of 500                                                                                                            =500+500\times \frac{20}{100} =500+100=600\ gram

And extra benefit = buy 3 jars get another one free, means we will get 4 jars by just giving price of only 3 jars.

That means, total weight of peanut butter you are getting by giving 3 packet's price =  Each jar weigh \times number of jars

                       = 600 \times 4 = 2400 gram

<u>Cost of each packet will be same as previously as during the offer;</u> $7.20

Cost of 3 packet's peanut (2400 gram) =  7.20\times3=\$21.6

Now, we will calculate cost per 100 grams of peanut butter :

<u>During offer:</u>

Cost of 2400 grams of peanut butter = $21.6

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = \frac{21.6}{2400}

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = \frac{21.6}{2400}\times100=\frac{2160}{2400} =\$0.9

<u>Normal day:</u>

Cost of 500 grams of peanut butter = $7.20

Cost of 1 gram of peanut butter = \frac{7.20}{500}

Cost of 100 gram of peanut butter = \frac{7.20}{500}\times100=\frac{720}{500} =\$1.44

We found that cost of 100 gram of peanut butter in normal day is $1.44 while cost of 100 gram of peanut butter during offer is $0.9 means cost per 100 gram during offer is ($1.44 - $0.9 = )$0.54 less than cost during normal day.

<u>Conclusion:</u>

Therefore, cost per 100 grams of peanut butter is $0.54 less than it is normally if you take full advantage of the supermarket's offer today.

The amount of the radioactive substance is 374.6 g

<h3>How to determine the amount of radioactive substance?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Initial, a = 424 mg
  • Rate, r = 6%
  • Time, t = 2 hours

The amount of the radioactive substance is calculated as:

A(t) = a(1 - r)^t

This gives

A(t) = 424 * (1 - 6%)^t

At 2 hours, we have:

A(2) = 424 * (1 - 6%)^2

Evaluate

A(2) = 374.6

Hence, the amount of the radioactive substance is 374.6 g
