Answer: 48oz = $1.68, 32oz = $0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the price of the 48oz bottle and B the price for the 32oz bottle.

We are told that:

A = B + $0.88

------

The unit price is defined as the $ per oz.

Let Au be the unit price for the 48oz size, and

Bu is the unit price for the 32oz size.

[This means that Au*(48) = A and Bu*(32) = B]

We are told that:

Bu + $0.01 = Au

=======

Find the cost of each.

A = B + $0.88

Au*(48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

Substitute (Bu + $0.01) for Au

(Bu + $0.01)*(48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

(48Bu + $0.48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

16Bu + $0.48 = $0.88

16Bu = $0.40

Bu = $0.025

The 32 oz bottle sells for $0.025/oz, or $0.80 a bottle

B = $0.80

Since A = B + $0.88

A = $0.80 + $0.88

A = $1.68

Paul is saving for a down payment to buy a house. The account earns 13% interest compound quarterly, and he wants to have $15,00

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The principal must be = $8991.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for compound interest is:

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A is the amount after 't' years.

P is the principal amount

n is the number of times interest is compounded each year.

r is the rate of interest.

Here, we are given that:

Amount, A = $15000

Rate of interest = 13 % compounded quarterly i.e. 4 times every year

Number of times, interest is compounded each year, n = 4

Time, t = 4 years.

To find, Principal P = ?

Putting all the given values in the formula to find P.

$15000 = P(1 + \frac{13}{400})^{4\times 4}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1 + 0.0325)^{16}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1.0325)^{16} \\\Rightarrow 15000 = P \times 1.66817253\\\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{15000}{1.66817253}\\\Rightarrow P \approx \$8991.88$

So, <em>the principal must be = $8991.88</em>

A dinner table is a perfect circle with a diameter of 8 feet. With dinner plates that each a diameter of exactly 1 foot, how muc

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The area of the tablecloth showing is approximately 45.55 square feet

The space occupied by any two-dimensional figure in a plane is called the area. The space occupied by the circle in a two-dimensional plane is called as the area of the circle.

It is given that:-

The diameter of the dinner table, D = 8 feet

The diameter of each plate, d = 1 feet

The number of people at the dinner table = 6 people

The number of plates = 6 plates

The area of the table cloth, A₁ = π·D²/4

∴ A₁ = π × 8²/4

The area covered by the 6 plates, A₂ = 6·π·d²/4

A₂ = 6 × π × 1²/4

Let 'A' represent the area of the tablecloth showing when the table is set for six people, we have;

A = A₁ - A₂

∴ A = π × 8²/4 - 6 × π × 1²/4 ≈ 45.55 ft.²

Therefore the area of the tablecloth showing when the table is set for six people, A ≈ 45.55 ft.²

To know more about an area follow

So, this problem asks us to construct an equation that relates the amount of money left to the amount of weeks that has gone by. First, let's assign variables. Let y be the amount of money left, while x is the number of weeks she receives money. The equation would be:

<em>y = 250 - 10x</em>

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in this circle.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

132°

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle,

So, it is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.

$\implies \: x \degree + (3x - 12) \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ \implies \: (4x - 12) \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ \implies \: 4x - 12 = 180 \\ \\ \implies \: 4x = 180 + 12 \\ \\ \implies \: 4x = 192 \\ \\ \implies \: x = \frac{192}{4} \\ \\ \implies \: x = 48\\\\$

(3x-12)° = (3*48 - 12)° = (144 - 12)° = 132°

$\implies \: m\angle B = 132\degree\\\\$
