An energy company’s stock price was $65.50 on Monday. On Tuesday, the price went up $1.50. On Wednesday, the price decreased from Tuesday’s price by $2.57. On Thursday, the price went up $2.25 from Wednesday’s price. Which of the following was the final price on Thursday?

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.

We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression. The order of operations is PEMDAS:

• Parentheses
• Exponents
• Multiplication and Division (in order from left to right)
• Addition and Subtraction (in order from left to right)

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

[3(6+5*4)]

We start with multiplication in parenthesis, 5*4=20. The expression becomes

[3(6+20)]

Then, we conduct the addition in parenthesis 6+20=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

The expression reduces into 6.

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.

Before finding the greatest number from the data set, the numbers need to be in fraction form.

-0.5=-5/10

-1.5=-15/10

The set of numbers becomes -2/3, -5/10, -15/10, -4/9

Now the least common denominator for 3, 10, and 9 is 90, which will be used to multiplied by the given fractions as follows:

-2/3*90=-60

-5/10*90=-45

-15/10*90=-135

-4/9*90=-40

From the above evaluations, the resulting numbers arranged from the smallest to the largest is -135, -60, -45, -40. Thus, the greatest number from the data set is -40, with a corresponding fraction of -4/9.

The percentage change in weight is found in three steps below:

Absolute change in weight=final weight-initial weight

Absolute change in weight=(left|120-153 ight|=left|-33 ight|=33)

Relative change in weight=(frac{absolute change}{initial weight}=frac{33}{153}=0.216)

Percent change=relative change * 100%

Percent change=0.216*100%=21.6%

The percent change in weight lost is 21.6 %, which is about 22%.

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.

The mean of a data set is the sum of all scores divided by the number of tests.

Total test scores = 83+86+76+88+97 = 430

Number of tests = 5

Mean test score = 430/5 = 86

The mean test score is 86.

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.

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

We use the Pythagoras theorem as follows to find the unknown value of x as:

Thus, the value of unknown side of the triangle is 21.8 feet.

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

Two friends eat half of the pizza, which is ½

And the remaining amount of pizza, 

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

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