A consumer needs to purchase at least 60 soft drinks for a picnic.

Which of the following combinations is the most cost-effective?

To find the amount of vanilla in mL, use dimensional analysis of the units of measurements.

Two ways to convert between teaspoon and mL are:

Since we are required to find the amount in mL, we use a cionverstioon that will result in mL. Inspecting the above options, we use the second option and set up an equation in way the unwanted units cancel out and leave the wanted unit we are looking for. Then,

Thus, a recipe of 3 teaspoons equals 14.79 mL.

The median of a data set is a number that falls in the middle of the data set. To find the median, the numbers in the data set are arranged from the smallest to the largest. In the given data set, the organized arrangement is:

-5, -1, 0, 3, 9

There are five elements in the data set, and the median falls in the third position from either side. Thus, 0 falls in the third position.

We use the calculator to find the positive square root of 19, which is then multiplied by 3.

Using the calculator,

Multiplying the square root above with 3 becomes

The approximate value of 3 times the square root of 19 is 13.1.

Using a calculator to evaluate 15÷27 results in 0.5555555556. To two decimal places, the answer becomes 0.56.

Thus, 0.56 is the decimal equivalent of 15/27.

We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.

First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.

Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. To convert a percent to decimal form, divide the value by 100.

The decimal form of 98.2% is 0.982.

A dependent variable is one that depends on the independent variable. An independent variable is one that when changed result in a change of another variable.

In this problem, if we change the brand of laptop, tax rate, and memory size, the price of the laptop changes. Thus, the cost of the laptop is the dependent variable.

A histogram is used to visualize the frequency of a one variable over the other while a line graph is used to compare two variables.

A scatter plot used to show the correlation between two variables.

A pie chart is used to show the proportion of the given information in circle, with each section of a circle representing a given fraction of a whole.

From the given information, a pie chart is an appropriate tool show the frequency of the students choosing their favorite color.

To find the greatest number from the given options, convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

6.98 becomes 698/100

9.2 becomes 92/10

The least common denominator for the denominators of 7, 100 and 10 is 700. Now we can multiply each fraction with 700 as follows:

3/7*700=300

698/100*700=4886

10/7*700=1000

92/10*700=6440

In order from the smallest to largest, we organize the number set as follows:

3/7, 10/7, 6.98, 9.2.

Thus, 9.2 is the greatest of all.

To find the cheapest option, we find the amount the consume will spend for each option given.:

• 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $16+$5= $21
• 3 Packs of Orange will cost $16+$12=$28
• 2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($15)+$7=$37
• 5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($7)=$35

From the above evaluation, the cheapest option will cost the consumer $21. Thus, buying 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will be cheaper to purchase compared to other options.
