Abdullah and Kanna are working on the same problem.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leona [35]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Abdullah is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottle contained originally 12 fl oz, so 12 fl oz is 100%.

The box now contains 20% more, so now it contains 120% of 12 fl oz.

120% * 12 fl oz = 1.2 * 12 fl oz = 14.4 fl oz

Also, 20% is 1/5. Abdullah divided 12 oz into 5 equal parts, and then he added one more 1/5. He interpreted the problem correctly. The amount in the new bottle is the amount of the old bottle plus 20% of that old amount.

Kanna considers the original amount to be 80%. When he adds another 20%, he is adding 1/4 of 12 which is too much. That is why he gets an incorrect answer that is to high. He interpreted the problem incorrectly. For him, the old bottle has 20% less than the new bottle. That is incorrect.

Abdullah is correct.

What is the volume of the water contained in the cylinder?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Vf = 118.365 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

Vcil = Pi*[(20)^2]*(100=

Vcil = 125.600 m3

Vesf = (4/3)*Pi*(12)^3

Vesf = 7235 m3

Then

Vf = Vci - Vesf

Vf = 125.600 - 7235

Vf = 118365 m3

Chandra created a budget matrix based on her regular and expected expenses for the year. Expense Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June Ju
Ivan

Answer:

Chandra's Average Monthly Expenses are;

1) For Both Jan and Feb are $269

2) For the remaining 10 months each are $244

Step-by-step explanation:

From Chandra's matrix all monthly expenses are all same that is,

Cell phone $71, Rent $1,025, Gym $75, Internet $25, Auto insurance $425, Gas $ 120, Food $145. which are all the expenses carried out every month for 12 months.

That means Chandra carries out a total of 7 expenses for the month of January and February while she carried a total of 6 expenses for the remaining 10 month which was noted from the matrix that Auto insurance was carried out only in the month of January and February.

Therefore, you start by adding up each month total expenses, which are ;

January = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25 + $425 + $120 + $145 = $1886

February = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25 + $425 + $120 + $145 = $1886

March = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

April = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

May = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

June = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

July= $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

August = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

September = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

October = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

November = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

December = $71 + $1,025 + $75 + $25  + $120 + $145 = $1461

Therefore Chandra's Average Monthly Expenses are:

1) January & February  = \frac{71 + 1,025 + 75 + 25 + 425 + 120 + 145}{7} = \frac{1886}{7} = 269.4286 to the nearest cent

≅ $269

2) For the remaining 10 month are = \frac{71 + 1,025 + 75 + 25  + 120 + 145}{6} = \frac{1461}{6}= 243.5 to the nearest cent

≅ $244
