How do you solve -1/12 - (-11/12)

1 answer:

7 0

-1/12 - (-11/12) would change into -1/12 + 11/12 because a double negative (bold print) would become a positive. The answer to the new problem would be 10/12 or 5/6 (depending on if it says to simplify).

The volume of soup in the cylindrical can is 100.48 inches cube.

<h3>How to find the volume of a cylindrical can?</h3>

We have to find the volume of the soup in a cylindrical can of height 8 inches and 4 inches across the lid.

The volume of the soup is the volume of the cylindrical can.

Therefore,

volume of the cylindrical can = πr²h

where

r = radius of the cylinder
h = height of the cylinder

Therefore,

h = 8 inches

r = 4 / 2 = 2 inches

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = πr²h

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = π × 2² × 8

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = π × 4 × 8

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = 32π

Therefore,

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = 32 × 3.14

volume of the soup in the cylindrical can = 100.48 inches³

A spice store charges $2.75 for 25 grams of paprika. It also charges 5% of the purchase price for shipping any order

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Part a) The expression is $3.2445x$

Part b) Customer cannot buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than $8.00

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

A spice store charged 2.75 for 25 grams of paprika. It also charges 5% of the purchase price for shipping any order.

Part a) Write and simplify an expression to determine the cost of buying and shipping x ounces of paprika. Use 1 ounce = 28 grams

Part b) Can a customer buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than 8.00? Explain

step 1

Convert grams to ounces

Remember that

$1\ oz=28\ g$

To convert grams to ounces divide by 28

$25\ g=25/28= 0.89\ oz$

The unit price is

$2.75/0.89=3.09\frac{\$}{oz}$

Let

x ----> the number of ounces of paprika

y ----> the cost of buying and shipping x ounces of paprika

5%=5/100=0.05

$y=3.09x+(3.09x)0.05\\y=3.09x[1+0.05]\\y=3.2445x$

Part b) For x=2.5 oz

substitute in the equation

$y=3.2445(2.5)=\$8.11$

$\$8.11 > \$8.00$

therefore

Customer cannot buy 2.5 ounces of paprika and have it shipped for less than $8.00
