Given:
The smaller container costs $3.87 for 48 ounces.
The larger container costs $6.42 for 128 ounces.
To find:
Which ice cream costs less per ounce?
Solution:
We know that
Using this formula, we get
Per ounce cost of small container
Per ounce cost of larger container
Since, 0.08 > 0.05 therefore, the per ounce cost of larger container is less.
a) algebraic expression
b) Solve and find value of x
x=47
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to translate the following verbal phrase into an algebraic equation
The quotient of three more than a number and five is ten
Let the number be x
three more than a number is written as: 3+x
Since quotient is 10 so,
The algebraic expression will be:
Now, <u>solving to find value of x</u>
Multiplying both sides by 5
Now Subtract -3 from both sides
So, value of x=47
