A pharmaceutical company’s stock price was $50.33 on Monday. On Tuesday, the price went up $2.35. On Wednesday, the price decreased from Tuesday’s price by $1.07. On Thursday, the price went up $0.75 from Wednesday’s price. Which of the following was the final price on Thursday?

We are being asked to find the amount of milk needed. This is a proportion problem, which compares the amount of flour to that of milk. Letting x represent the amount of milk required, we set up the proportion with flour on the numerator and amount of milk in denominator as follows:

Change the mixed fraction of 1 1/5 into improper fraction as follows

The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x

As an mixed fraction, 36/5 becomes 7 1/5. Therefore, 7 1/5 cups of milk are needed to make a big batch of 2 cups.

We convert the given value in yard to the cm using the following set up.

The value 91.44 cm is close to 90 cm. Therefore, 1 yard is approximately 90 cm.

We are asked to find the one of the lengths of a right-angled triangle, we use the Pythagoras theorem to find the unknown length.

First, we label the triangle as below and let the unknown length be x.

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

\(a^2+b^2=c^2\)

The value of the unknown length is approximately 8.9 feet.

The number of boxes is determined by finding the volume of the room divided by the volume of the box.

Number of boxes

The approximate number of boxes that can be stored in the room is 92.

However, the room’s dimensions are 9 ft x 9 ft x 9 ft, and the boxes are 2 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft (unchangeable shape). To determine how many boxes fit along each dimension:

• In the 9 ft length, you can fit\(\frac{9}{2} = 4.5\ boxes\) which means only 4 whole boxes fit along this dimension.
• In the 9 ft width, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
• In the 9 ft height, you can fit 4 whole boxes.

Therefore, the total number of boxes that fit is:

\(4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64\ boxes\)

Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. The given percent is divided by 100. To convert it to a decimal form, we move the decimal point two points to the left from the current position. Thus

The decimal form of 87.5% is 0.875.

We use the relation 1 L=1000 mL to convert 0.5 L to mL as follows.

Thus, 0.5 L is 500 mL.

To find the cost-effective option, we need to find how much the consumer will spend for the given options:

2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost $18+$5= $23

3 Packs of Orange will cost $18+$10=$28

2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda will cost 2($12)+$5=$29

5 packs of cream Soda will cost 5($5)=$25

From the above evaluation, the consumer will spend $23 for a cost effective package of soft drinks. Thus, 2 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda will be cheaper to purchase compared to other options.

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

Letting x be the number of cups of flour and setting the proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator. We have

Solve the value of x by cross-multiplying

We convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication

\(x =\ \frac{9}{4}\ cups\ *\ 90\ cookies\ *\ \frac{1}{36}\ cookies\)

The number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 5.625 cups, which is equal to 5 5/8 cups(Choice B).

We are asked to find the Kwame’s uncle’s age in terms of Kwame’s age.

First, we need to find the age of Kwame, which is k. Then, we know that Kwame’s uncle’s age is three times that of Kwame less 17. Then,

Kwame’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-17.

Thus, the relation that relates Kwame’s uncle’s age to that of Kwame is u=3k-17.

We need to find the circumference of the circle from the given area.

To find the circumference, we need to find the radius of the circle from the given area.

Let r be the radius of the circle, and the area of the circle is given by

Substituting the value of area in the above equation becomes

Dividing both sides by pi and taking square root on both sides yields

The radius of the circle is 7 in. and the circumference of the circle is given by the relation:
