A company recently replaced its 9-oz cup of yogurt with a 7-oz cup and reduced the suggested retail price from 87 cents to 75 cents. Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup? If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Question 1

Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup? No it's not the same

Question 2

If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

13.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first yoghurt cup size = 9 oz

The second and recent yoghurt cup size = 7 oz

The difference in ounces = 9 oz - 7 oz

= 2 oz

Converting this difference to percentage

= 2 oz/ 9 oz × 100%

= 22.222222222%

The percent reduction in cup size is approximately

22.2%.

The first retail price per ounce = 87 cents

The second and recent retail price per ounce =75 cents

The difference in prices = 87 cents - 75 cents

= 12 cents

Converting this difference to percentage

= 12 cents / 87 cents × 100%

= 13.793103448%

The percent reduction in yoghurt price per ounce is approximately

13.8%.

Question 1

Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup?

From the above calculation,

Percent reduction in price per ounce =

13.8%

Percent reduction in the size of the cup = 22.2%

13.8% ≠ 22.2%

Therefore, it is not the same

Question 2

If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

Therefore, the price difference per ounce in terms of percent is

13.793103448%.

Approximately ≈ 13.8%

1/2 - 1/5

I don’t know how to do these problems

Answers

Answer: 3/10

Step-by-step explanation: Since our denominators of 2 and 5have no

factors in common, our least common denominator is 2 · 5 or 10.

In order to get a denominator of 10 in each fraction,

we multiply top and bottom of the first fraction by 5

and top and bottom of the second fraction by 2.

That gives us 5/10 - 2/10 which is 3/10.

At the store, Jason find the volume of a soda pack is 423.9 in.³. If each cylinder shaped can has a height of 6 inches and a diameter of 3 inches, how many soda cans are in a pack? (Use 3.14 for pi)

Answers

Answer : The correct option is, (A) 10

Step-by-step explanation :

First we have to calculate the volume of cylinder shaped can.

Formula used:

Volume of cylinder = π r² h

where,

r = radius of cylinder

h = height of cylinder

Given:

Diameter of cylinder = 3 in

Height of cylinder = 6 in

Radius of cylinder = [tex]\frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{3in}{2}=1.5in[/tex]

Now putting all the given values in the above formula.

Volume of cylinder = π r² h

Volume of cylinder = 3.14 × (1.5 in)² × 6 in

Volume of cylinder = 42.39 in³

Now we have to determine the number of soda cans are in a pack.

Number of soda cans are in a pack = [tex]\frac{\text{Volume of soda pack}}{\text{Volume of cylinder shaped can}}[/tex]

Number of soda cans are in a pack = [tex]\frac{423.9in^3}{42.39in^3}[/tex]

Number of soda cans are in a pack = 10

Therefore, the number of soda cans in a pack are 10.

Solve for x: 2x^5/3-22=464 a) x = 28 b) x = 27 c) x = ±27 d) x = ±28

Answers

Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression [tex]{2x^{\frac{5}{3} }-22 = 464[/tex], we are to find the value of x in the expression. This is as shown below;

[tex]{2x^{\frac{5}{3} }-22 = 464[/tex]

add 22 to both sides

[tex]{2x^{\frac{5}{3} }-22 = 464+22\\\\[/tex]

[tex]{2x^{5/3} =486[/tex]

divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x^{5/3}}{2} =\frac{486}{2}\\ x^{5/3} = 243[/tex]

raise both sides to the power of 3/5

[tex](x^{5/3})^{3/5} = (243)^{3/5}\\x = (\sqrt[5]{243}) ^3\\x = 3^3\\x = 27[/tex]

Hence the value of x is 27

f(x) = (2x + 1)(x - 2)(x + 3)

Answers

Answer:

f(3) = 42.

Y-intercept is (0, -6).

X-intercepts  are (-0.5, 0),  ( 2, 0) and (-3, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

f(3) = (2(3) + 1)(3 - 2)(3 + 3)

= 7 * 1 * 6

= 42.

The y intercept occurs when x = 0:

y-intercept = (2(0) + 1)(0 - 2)(0 + 3)

= 1 *-2*3

= -6.

Calculate the x-intercepts:

(2x + 1)(x - 2)(x + 3) = 0  so

(2x + 1) = 0 or  (x - 2) = 0   or   (x + 3) = 0

So x = -0.5,  2 or  -3.

A nurse is preparing to administer dopamine 2 mcg/kg/min by continuous IV infusion for a client who weighs 110 lb. Available is dopamine
400 mg in 250 mL of D5W. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many ml/hr administer? (Round the answer to the nearest
tenth.)​

Answers

Answer:

3.7ml/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

A nurse is preparing to administer dopamine 2 mcg/kg/min by continuous IV infusion

Step 1

The patient weighs 110lb(pounds

Convert the patients weight to kilogram

1 lb = 0.454kg

110lb =

Cross Multiply

110lb × 0.454kg

= 49.94kg

The patient weight = 49.94kg

Step 2

The dosage to to be administered by the nurse = 2 mcg/kg/min

If 1 kg = to be administered 2mcg/min

49.94 kg =

(49.94kg × 2mcg/min)/1

= 99.88mcg/min

Therefore, for the patient's body weight, the patient's dosage = 99.88mcg/min

Step 3

Available dopamine is 400mg in 250ml

We have to convert this to mcg

Hence,

1 mg = 1000mcg

400mg =

Cross Multiply

= 400mg × 1000mcg

= 400000mcg

Hence, the available dopamine is administer in 250ml/400000mcg

Part 3

Since 60 minutes is 1 hour

The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many ml/hr

(99.88mcg/min × 250ml × 60mins)/ 400000mcg

= 3.7455ml/hr

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 3.7ml/hr

A Ferris wheel at a carnival has a radius of 38 feet. Suppose a passenger is traveling at 5 miles per hour. (A usual fact: 1 mi = 5280 ft).A) Find the angular speed of the wheel in radians per minute.B) Find the number of revolutions the wheel makes per hour.

Answers

Answer:

a

[tex]w =  11.58 \ rad/minutes[/tex]

b

[tex]R_h  =  111 \ revolution\ per  \  hour[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the question we told that

    The radius of the wheel is  [tex]r = 38 \  ft[/tex]

     The  speed of the passenger is  [tex]v  =  5 \  miles /hr = \frac{26400}{3600} = 7.33 \ ft / s[/tex]

  Generally the angular speed is mathematically represented as

     [tex]w =  \frac{v}{r}[/tex]

=>   [tex]w =  \frac{7.3}{ 38}[/tex]

=>   [tex]w =  0.193 \ rad/s[/tex]

now converting the seconds to minutes

        [tex]w =  0.193 *60[/tex]

        [tex]w =  11.58 \ rad/minutes[/tex]

Generally number of revolutions the wheel makes per minutes is mathematically represented as

     [tex]R = \frac{11.58 }{2 \pi}[/tex]

      [tex]R = 1.84 \ rpm[/tex]

Generally number of revolutions the wheel makes per hour  is mathematically represented as

       [tex]R_h  =   R *  60[/tex]

=>     [tex]R_h  =  1.84 * 60[/tex]

=>    [tex]R_h  =  111 \ revolution\ per  \  hour[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable "a" and "b" represents distances on the numberline.

Variable "c" is the combined distance of the values of variable "a" and variable "b" on the numberline.

a = length of red line = |5 - 0| = |5| = 5

b = length of blue line = |11 - 5| = |6| = 6

c = length of black line (red+blue) = |11 - 0| = |11| = 11

Therefore:

[tex] a + b + c = 5 + 6 + 11 = 22 [/tex]

If 50 percent of the families in a certain city subscribe to the morning newspaper, 65 percent of the families subscribe to the afternoon newspaper, and 85 percent of the families subscribe to at least one of the two newspapers. What percentage of the families subscribe to both newspapers?

Answers

Answer: 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Percent of families subscribe to the morning newspaper =  50%

Percent of families subscribe to the afternoon newspaper = 65%

Percent of families subscribe to at least one of the two newspapers. = 85%

Now, percentage of the families subscribe to both newspapers = % for morning newspaper  +   % for afternoon newspaper - % for at least one of the two newspapers

= (50+65 - 85) %

=  30 %

Hence, the percentage of the families subscribe to both newspapers = 30%

B. $81,087
C. $61,087
D. $51,087

Answers

Answer:

A. $71,087

Step-by-step explanation:

The name jade and Mary contradict each other, let's assume both jade and Mary refers to the same person

Jade receives job benefits of 17.5% of her annual gross pay

Jade has an annual gross pay of $60,500

how much in total job benefits does she receive?

Total job benefits received = 17.5% of $60,500 + $60,500

= (17.5 / 100 * 60,500) + 60,500

= (0.175 * 60,500) + 60,500

= 10,587.5 + 60,500

= $71,087.5

The rounded value closest to the answer in the option is $71,087
