Answer:

The 16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though 8-oz is half the amount of 16-oz, that doesn't mean it's cheaper. Let's find the amount of and 8-oz bottle when a 16-oz bottle is $5.78:

16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese = $5.78

A price of an 8-oz bottle when 16-oz is divided by 2:

16 ÷ 5.78 = $2.76

The original price of the 8-oz bottle should've been $2.76 but it's more expensive due to VAT.

So the 8-oz bottle is more expensive, therefore the 16-oz bottle is the better buy!

nata0808 [166]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

If a=b, you are asking for a whole number c such that ...

  c = √(a² +a²) = a√2

If 'a' is a whole number, the only whole numbers that satisfy this equation are ...

  c = 0 and a = 0.

  0 = 0×√2

The lowest whole number c such that c = √(a²+b²) and a=b=whole number is zero.

__

√2 is irrational, so there cannot be two non-zero whole numbers such that c/a=√2.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you allow 'a' to be irrational, then you can choose any value of 'c' that you like. Whole numbers begin at 0, so 0 is the lowest possible value of 'c'. If you don't like that one, you can choose c=1, which makes a=(√2)/2 ≈ 0.707, an irrational number. The problem statement here puts no restrictions on the values of 'a' and 'b'.

We can use a ratio to solve

330ft               x ft

------------     = ---------------

10 seconds      11 seconds

Using cross products

330*11 = 10x

Divide by 10

330*11/10 = x

363 = x

The Math class provides a static method, max, that accepts two int arguments and returns the value of the larger one. Four int v
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

max (max (max (population1, population2) , population3), population4)

Step-by-step explanation:

max accepts two int arguments and returns the value of the larger one:

max (i,j) = i if i>j or =j if j<i

Four int variables, population1, population2, population3, and population4

max (population1, population2) ⇒ return the larger one between population1 and population2

max (max (population1, population2) , population3) ⇒ return the larger one between the largest one between population1 and population2 and population3

max (max (max (population1, population2) , population3), population4) ⇒ return the larger one between population1, population2, population3 and population4

An expression whose value is the largest of population1, population2, population3, and population4 by calling max is:

max (max (max (population1, population2) , population3), population4)
