Orange

Two 24-packs for $15; one 24-pack for $9

Root Beer

One 24-pack for $14

Cream Soda

One 12-pack for $3

A consumer needs to purchase at least 50 soft drinks for a picnic. Which of the following combinations is the most cost-effective?

To round 24.375 kg to the nearest tenth (0.1 place), follow these steps:

1. Identify the tenth place in 24.375:
   • Tenth place: 3 (24.375)
   • Hundredths place: 7 (the next digit after the hundredths place)
2. Apply rounding rules:
   • If the hundredths place is 5 or greater, round up the tenth place.
   • Since 7 is in the hundredths place, round 24.3 up to 24.4.

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

Given Trapezoid:

• Top side: 10 cm
• Bottom side: 16 cm
• Left slant side: 5 cm
• Right slant side: 5 cm

Calculate the Perimeter:

10+16+5+5=36cm

 the percentage change in weight is found by calculating change in weight over original multiplied by 100%.

First, find the change in weight over the 3 months

Change in weight lost= 1860-130=30 lb

Thus

The percent change in weight is 19% to the nearest whole number.

The scatter plot showing the relationship between the number of absences in a semester and students’ final exam scores. The trend shows that as absences increase, exam scores decrease.

This represents a Negative Correlation because:

• When one variable (absences) increases, the other variable (exam score) decreases.
• The points on the scatter plot trend downward from left to right.

 We are asked to make w the subject of the formula.

First, we rearrange the equation by to ensure w is on the right hand of the equation.

Then, divide both sides by r

Multiply both sides by y

The above equation can be rearranged into

Thus, the formula for finding the value of w is (x/ry)-(z/r).

To determine the correct coordinates of the point shown on the graph, follow these steps:

1. Identify the x-coordinate: Count the number of units the point is to the right or left of the y-axis. The point is at 5 on the x-axis.
2. Identify the y-coordinate: Count the number of units the point is above or below the x-axis. The point is at -8 on the y-axis.
3. The correct coordinates are (5, -8).

Looking at the answer choices:

• A. (5, -8) → Correct
• B. (-5, 8) → Incorrect
• C. (-8, 5) → Incorrect
• D. (8, -5) → Incorrect

Final Answer:

A. (5, -8)

We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.

First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows

[3(2+6*4)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 6*4=24. The expression becomes

[3(2+24)]

Then, we conduct the addition of 2+24=26. Then, the expression becomes

[3(26)]=3*26=78

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

\(\frac{[3(2+6\ast4)]}{(26\div2)}=\frac{78}{13}=6\)

The expression reduces into 6.

To find the cheapest option, we find the expenditure on each given option.:

2 two-24 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda=2($15)+$3=$33

3 one 24-pack of Orange=3($9)=$27

2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda=2($14)+$3=$31

5 packs of cream Soda=5($3)=$15

Spending 5 packs of cream soda is the cost-effective option.

The final price of the stock on Thursday can be found by finding the price on the previous day taking into account the price changes as follows.

The price of the stock on Monday was $33.65

On Tuesday the price of the stock went up by $1.23 from Monday’s price. Then, Tuesday’s price was $(33.65+1.23)=$34.88

The price of the stock on Wednesday decreased by $0.97 from Tuesday’s price. The price on Wednesday became $(34.88-0.97)=$33.91

Thursday’s price increased by $2.75 from Wednesday’s price, which was $(33.91+2.75)=$36.66

Therefore, the final price of the stock on Thursday was $36.66.

A histogram depicts the frequency of a one variable over the other while a bar graph is used to compare two variables with vertical axis representing the heights. Therefore, a histogram will be used to represent percent of the number of students reading after 9.
