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 let x represent the amount of vanilla in mL, since this is what the question is asking us to find.

Next, we will set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.

Cross-multiply to find the value of x

A recipe of 2.5 teaspoons equals 12.325 mL.

The question requires us to find the percentage change in weight of a person.

First, we need to find the change in weight over the 3 months

Change in weight= 180-160=20 lb

Percent change in weight is change of original weight *100. Thus

The percent change in weight is 11% to the nearest whole number.

To calculate the percentage increase in client volume, use the formula:

PercentageIncrease×100

Step 1: Identify values

• Old Value (Year 1): 841 clients
• New Value (Year 2): 1,072 clients

Step 2: Compute the increase

1,072−841=231

Step 3: Calculate the percentage increase

×100 ≈ 27.47%

Step 4: Choose the closest answer

The closest option is 27%.

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 are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program using the percentages in the pie chart.

If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program, we can set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator. The whole pie chart represents 100%, which is 800 students. Then, 19% will represent

We solve the value of x by cross-multiplying the equation above.

So, 152 students will enroll for a respiratory care program.

What fraction of the pizza the other three friends get is what is asked to find.

First, the pizza is whole, representing a value of 1. Then, one friend ate half of the pizza. Thun, the fraction of the pizza the friend gets is:

First friend eats =1/2 of 1=1/2

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

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

The three friends each gets 1/6 of the pizza.

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

Thus, 0.5 L is 500 mL.

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

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

[2(3+5*3)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 5*3=15. The expression becomes

[2(3+15)]

Then, we conduct the addition of 3+15=18. Then, the expression yields

[2(18)]=2*18=36

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 12/2=6.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

The expression reduces into 6.

In this problem, we need to compare the number of dimes to quarters.

If we let n be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 2n

Number of nickels in the bottle = 4n

Number of dimes in the bottle =5(4n)=20n

Now relating dimes to quarters, we have

Thus, there are 10 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.

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.
