Explain which is the better value for money

Mathematics
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off 250g is $1.85 and we want to get to 500g so if we add $1.85 with $1.85 we will get $3.70.  This amount is more than the number if we bought just 500g once than if we bought 250g twice, because if we did, we would be paying more.  But that's not all, if we add 500g with 500g we will get $6.20.  That's more than the original price for 1 kg and if we multiply 250g 4 times than we get 7.4.  So in all we would buy 1 kg.

1.) Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth .x squared minus 21 x equals n
Andrew [12]
Part 1
We are given x^2-21x=-4x. This can be rewritten as x^2-18x=0.
Therefore, a=1, b=-18, c=0.
Using the quadratic formula
     x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-\left(-18\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-18\right)^2-4\left(1\right)\left(0\right)}}{2\left(1\right)}
     x=\frac{18\pm 18}{2}

The values of x are
     x_1=\frac{18-18}{2}=0
     x_2=\frac{18+18}{2}=18

Part 2
Since the values of y change drastically for every equal interval of x, the function cannot be linear. Therefore, the kind of function that best suits the given pairs is a quadratic function. 

Part 3.
The first equation is y=x^2+2.
The second equation is y=3x+20.

We have 
     x^2+2=3x+20
     x^2-3x-18=0
Factoring, we have 
     \left(x-6\right)\left(x+3\right)=0
Equating both factors to zero.
     x_1-6=0\rightarrow x_1=6
     x_2+3=0\rightarrow x_2=-3

When the value of x is 6, the value of y is 
     y=3\left(6\right)+20=38

When the value of x is -3, the value of y is 
     y=3\left(-3\right)+20=11

Therefore, the solutions are (6,38) or (-3,11)

An interger between -5 and -6
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

None!

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, what is an integer? An integer is a number that is not a fraction or a whole number but it can be negative or positive.

-5 and -6 are both integers and they are both consecutive integers meaning that they are following one another. So they is no integer between -5 and -6.

the first box measures 18 inches by 8 inches by 15 inches. the second box is 10 inches tall and the area of the base measures 19
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

  Box 1 has the greater volume, by 200 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest of two volumes can be found by computing each volume and comparing the results.

<h3>Box 1</h3>

The volume is computed from dimensions by ...

  V = LWH

  V = (18 in)(8 in)(15 in) = 2160 in³

__

<h3>Box 2</h3>

The volume is computed from area and height by ...

  V = Bh . . . . . where B is the base area, and h is the height

  V = (196 in²)(10 in) = 1960 in³

__

<h3>Comparison</h3>

The units of the two volumes are the same, so we can decide which is larger by comparing the numbers. Box 1 has a volume that is more than 2000 in³, and Box 2 has a volume that is less than 2000 in³.

  Box 1 has a greater volume

The amount by which the volume is greater can be found by subtracting the smaller volume from the larger:

  2160 in³ -1960 in³ = 200 in³

  Box 1 is larger by 200 in³

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The percentage by which Box 1 is larger than Box 2 can be found by multiplying 100% by the ratio of the difference to the Box 1 volume:

  200/1960 × 100% ≈ 10.2%

Box 1 is about 10% larger than Box 2.
