we are asked to find the percent change in weight gain of a person.
First, we need to find the change in weight gained over the 4 months
Change in weight= 186-176=10 lb
The percent change is expressed as change in weight over original weight *100. Then
The percent change in weight is 6% to the nearest whole number.

Explanation
We are tasked to find the unknown values of x in the given equation.
First, we add 8 to both sides of the equation.
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
If , a>0, then u=a or u=-a
From our resulting equation, a=14, which is greater 0. Then, the first condition (u=a) becomes
Solving for x
The second condition (u= -a) becomes
Solving for x
Thus, the value of x is 4 or -3
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank holds. A full tank is treated as 1 whole.
Letting x be the number of gallons in full tank and setting the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction and cross-multiply to find the value of x.
x 1 full tank=185 gallons23full tank
A full tank holds 27/5 gallons, which when converted to a mixed fraction is 5 2/5.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Choice A: 2 packs of Orange and 2 packs of Cream Soda
- Total drinks: 48 + 24 = 72 drinks
- Total cost: (2 * $15) + (2 * $5) = $30 + $10 = $40
- This choice not only meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks but also offers the best value in terms of cost per drink, making it the most cost-effective option.
Choice B: 3 packs of Root Beer
- Total drinks: 3 * 24 = 72 drinks
- Total cost: 3 * $14 = $42
- While this choice meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks, it's not the most cost-effective, as it costs $42for 72 drinks.
Choice C: 1 pack of Orange, 2 packs of Root Beer, and 1 pack of Cream Soda
- Total drinks: 24 + 48 + 12 = 84 drinks
- Total cost: $9 + (2 * $14) + $5 = $9 + $28 + $5 = $42
- This choice provides more than 60 drinks, but it's not the most cost-effective due to its higher cost of $42, same as choice B.
Choice D: 4 packs of Cream Soda
- Total drinks: 4 * 12 = 48 drinks
- Total cost: 4 * $5 = $20
- While this choice is the most cost effective, it falls short of providing the desired number of drinks.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given set, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
12.35 becomes 1235/100
11.46 becomes 1146/10
Then, the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we multiply each fraction with 300, which we will use to compare the give set.
25/2*300=3750
1235/100*300=3705
40/3*300=4000
1146/10*300=3438
From the calculated values, 4000 is the greatest value. Then, 40/3is the greatest value.

Explanation
The number of boxes to fit the room is found as volume of the room divided by the volume of the box.
Number of boxes:
\(\frac{volume\ of\ the\ room}{volume\ of\ the\ box} = \frac{12ft\ *\\ 12ft\ *\ 12ft}{2.5ft\ *\ 2.5t\ *\ 2.5ft}\ =\ 110.592\)
The approximate number of boxes that can be stored in the room is approximately 111 square feet.
