Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of 5 - pound box of detergent = $3.50

Cost of 15 - pound box of detergent = $10.00

Number of loads can wash 5-pound box of detergent = 20

Number of loads can wash 15-pound box of detergent = 20\times 3=60

For 60 loads to be washed in 15 pound box of detergent costs $10.00

For 60 loads to be washed in 5 pound box of detergent costs

3.50\times 3\\\\=\$10.50

So, total saving while using 15 pound box of detergent is given by

10.50-10.00\\\\=\$0.50

So, total saving per load would be

\dfrac{0.50}{60}=\$0.008=0.8\ cents

Hence, option 'B' is correct.

Answer. Option  B. 0.8 cents.


Solution:

With a 5-pound box of detergent will wash 20 loads of laundry, then with a 15-pound box (5*3) of detergent will wash 20*3=60 loads of laundry, and you would pay $10.00.

To wash 60 loads of laundry with 5-pound box, you would need three 5-pound box, and you would pay $3.50*3=$10.50.


Then you would save in total $10.50-$10.00=$0.50

And per load, you would save: $0.50/60=$0.008=0.008*100 cents=0.8 cents

What's 76×32÷5+(19×92)-15×2? Need help ASAP​
arsen [322]

Answer:

2204.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so we want to always use order of operations: PEMDAS

Sop first we do what is in the parenthesis. 19*92 is 1748.

Now, going from left to right, we do multiplication and division. 76*32 is 2432. Then we divide that by 5 to get 486.4. And the last bit is 15*2 which is 30.

Your equation now is 486.4+1748-30.

The final answer is 2204.4
