Division is the process of finding the number of times a number is multiplied by itself. The 16-ounce container is the better buy.

<h3>What is Division?</h3>

The division is the process of finding the number of times a number is multiplied by itself.

The prices of the different size containers are given to us,

4-5 ounce containers for $5. 00

1-12 ounce container for $3. 24

1-16 ounce container for $4. 19

Now, find the cost of the cheese per ounce when we buy the minimum cheese and when we but the maximum amount of cheese.

1.   For the first Container, 4-5 ounce containers for $5.00

If we buy 4 ounces of cheese, then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $1.25 for each ounce, while if we buy the maximum amount of cheese therefore 5 ounces for $5 then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $1.

2.  For, the second container, 1-12 ounce container for $3.24

If we buy 1 ounce of cheese, then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $3.24 for each ounce, while if we buy the maximum amount of cheese therefore 5 ounces for $5 then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $0.27.

3.  For, the third container, 1-16 ounce container for $4.19.

If we buy 1 ounce of cheese, then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $4.19 for each ounce, while if we buy the maximum amount of cheese therefore 16 ounces for $4.19 then the cost of each ounce of cheese will be $0.26.

Thus, if we buy the maximum amount of cheese from each of the boxes, the third box will be the cheapest.

Hence, The 16-ounce container is the better buy.

Give a power series representation for the function f(x) x^3/(1 + 9x^2)
Nata [24]

Recall that for |x|, we have

\displaystyle\frac1{1-x}=\sum_{n\ge0}x^n

Replace x with -9x^2 and we get

\displaystyle\frac1{1-(-9x^2)}=\sum_{n\ge0}(-9x^2)^n=\sum_{n\ge0}(-9)^nx^{2n}

Lastly, multiply this by x^3, so that

\boxed{f(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge0}(-9)^nx^{2n+3}}

PLZZ HELPPP!!! Each edge of a wooden cube is 6 centimeters long. The cube has a density of 0.71 g/cm3
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

153.36g

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of mass per unit volume of a material.

Density = Mass/Volume

Given the edge of a cube which is equivalent to its length L to be 6cm.

Density of the cube = 0.71g/cm³

Volume of the cube = L³

Volume = 6³

Volume of the cube = 216cm³

Mass = Density × Volume

Mass of the cube = 0.71×216

Mass of the cube = 153.36grams
