A store had 112 diet sodas. The ratio of diet sodas to regular sodas was 8:4. How many regular sodas were there?

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways the answer to this question can be determined

<u><em>Method 1 : the fast method </em></u>

We know that 8 is twice 4

4 x 2 = 8

The ratio of diet soda = 8

the ratio of regular sodas = 4

Diet sodas = 112

the number of regular sodas = 112 / 2 = 56

<u><em>Method 2 : The long method </em></u>

I would first determine the total number of diet and regular sodas. Let the total number be represented by d

from the question, the following equation can be derived :

(8/12) x d = 112

divide both sides of the equation by 12/8 to determine the value of d

d = 112 x (12/8) = 168

We can now derive a value for the number of regular soda

regular sodas = ( ratio of regular sodas / total soda) x total number of sodas

(4/12) x 168 = 56

In triangle XYZ, angle Y = 45º and angle Z = 60º. If XZ = 4, then what is XY?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

XY = 4.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

XZ= 4

\angle Y = 45

\angle Z = 60

Required

Determine the measure of side XY

To do this, we make use of sine law. This is as follows:

\frac{a}{\sin\ A} = \frac{b}{\sin\ B} = \frac{c}{\sin\ C}

In this case:

\frac{4}{\sin(45)} = \frac{XY}{\sin(60)}

Cross Multiply

XY * \sin(45) = 4 * \sin(60)

XY * 0.7071 = 4 * 0.8660

Make XY the subject

XY = \frac{4 * 0.8660}{0.7071}

XY = \frac{3.4640}{0.7071}

XY = 4.89888276057

XY = 4.9 -- <em>approximated</em>

Abdul put gas in his car. He paid $18.32 for 8 gallons of gas. What is the unit price?
givi [52]

Answer:

<em>$2.29/gal</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price is in units of cost per volume, or dollars per gallon, so you divide the cost in dollars by the volume in gallons.

unit rate = ($18.32)/(8 gal) = $2.29/gal
