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

 we need to find the portion of pizza shared by two other friends.

We know that a whole pizza represents 1 and one friend eats half of it. So, the remaining amount left to other two friends is

Remaining fraction of the pizza=1-1/2=1/2

Now, the two friends share ½ amongst themselves equally. Then, each friend gets

The two friends each gets 1/4 of the pizza.

To estimate the total amount, round each price to the nearest dollar:

1. Hat: $19.49 → $19 (since 0.49 rounds down)
2. Shirt: $21.49 → $21 (since 0.49 rounds down)
3. Shoes: $59.99 → $60 (since 0.99 rounds up)

Now, add the rounded values:

19+21+60=10019 + 21 + 60 = 10019+21+60=100

we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.

First, add 2 to both sides of equation

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

Next, we apply the absolute rule:

If u=a, a>0, then u=a or u=-a

In this case a=5, which is greater 0.

The first condition becomes

Solving for x

The second condition becomes

Solving for x

Then, the value of x is -4/3 or 2.

 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).

percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. To get the decimal form of the percent given, e divide the value by 100.

The decimal form of 58.7% is 0.587.

 We are asked to convert kg to pounds using the given relation. Letting x to represent the lb we are looking for.

Nest, we set the proportion with kg in the numerator and lb on the denominator as follows.

We find the value of x by cross-multiplication

The value of x is 110 lb.

we convert the given value in yards to the cm by setting up the equation below.

2 yards is equal to 182.88 cm, which is approximately 180 cm.

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 find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 130 cookies.

First, we convert 3 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 64, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 130 cookies is 845/128 cups, which is equal to 6 77/128 cups.

 Let the unknown length of the x. The resulting rectangle is shown below.

Then, we apply the Pythagoras theorem to find the value of x as:

The value of the unknown length is approximately 17.7 feet.
