Keith needs to buy some pencils. Brand A has a pack of 24 pencils for $8.77. Brand B has a pack of 26 pencils for $9.84.
Find the unit price for each brand. Then state which brand is the better buy based on the unit price.
Round your answers to the nearest cent.
Unit price for the Brand A pencils:
Unit price for the Brand B pencils:
The better buy:
O Brand A
O Brand B

$for each pencil
Neither (They have the same unit price)

Answers

Answer 1

The brand that is the better buy based on their unit price is; Brand A

How to find the Unit Price?

A unit price is defined as the price for one item or measurement, such as a pound, a kilogram, or a pint, which can be used to compare the same type of goods sold in varying weights and amounts.

It is also referred to as a product's average price which is the result of dividing the product's total sales revenue by the total units sold.

Thus;

Unit price of Brand A = 8.77/24 =$0.365 per pencil

Unit price of Brand B = 9.84/26 = $0.378 per pencil

The cheaper one is the better buy which is Brand A.

The fact that both rays are equal in the case at hand is not given, hence the incorrect statement will be (A) AB = AC.

What are rays?

By selecting a curve that is perpendicular to the wavefronts of the actual light and points in the direction of energy flow, one can create an idealized geometrical model of light or other electromagnetic radiation known as a ray in the field of optics.

By segmenting the actual light field into discrete rays that can be computationally propagated across the system using ray tracing techniques, rays are used to mimic the propagation of light through an optical system.

As a result, even extremely complicated optical systems can be mathematically or computationally investigated.

For as long as light waves travel through and around objects whose dimensions are significantly larger than the light's wavelength, approximate solutions to Maxwell's equations are appropriate for use in ray tracing.

So, in the given situation it is nowhere given that both rays are equal, and hence the wrong statement will be AB = AC.

Therefore, the fact that both rays are equal in the case at hand is not given, hence the incorrect statement will be (A) AB = AC.

The required derivative of f(x) = ln(1 - x) is f'(x) = -1 / (1 - x).

What is derivative?

A derivative is a two-party contract whose price or value is based on an underlying asset. Futures, options, forward contracts, and swaps are the four most popular types of derivatives. It is a financial instrument whose price and value are determined by the underlying assets.

According to question:

The derivative of the natural logarithmic function is given by:

d/dx [ln(u(x))] = 1/u(x) * du/dx

So, to find the derivative of f(x) = ln(1 - x), we need to find the derivative of the inside function, which is 1 - x:

f'(x) = 1/[1 - x] * d/dx [1 - x]

= 1/[1 - x] * (-1)

= -1 / (1 - x)

So the derivative of f(x) = ln(1 - x) is f'(x) = -1 / (1 - x).

A student needs at least three notebooks and three pencils. Notebooks cost #60 and pencils #36 and the student has #360 to spend. The student decides to spend as much as possible of his #360. a How many ways can he spend his money? b Does any of the ways give him change? If so, how much?​

Answers

Answer:

Two ways.

(1) 4 notebooks,3 pencils, have change $12;

(2)3 notebooks, 5 pencils, have no change.

Step-by-step explanation:

set student buy x notebooks and y pencils,

x≥3,y≥3,

60x+36y≤360

if x=3, 180+36y≤360

         36y≤180

             y≤5

and y≥3, so y={3,4,5}

(1)when y=3, 60x≤360-36x3=252, x≤4.2,so x=4,

and change=360-36x3-60x4=12

(2)when y=4, 60x≤360-36x4=216, x≤3.6,so x=3,

and change=360-36x4-60x3=36, since student have to spend as much as possible of his money, $36 can buy a pencil, so this is not accepted.

(3)when y=5, 60x≤360-36x5=180, x≤3, so x=3,

and change =360-36x5-60x3=0

The student has two ways to spend his money on notebooks and pens. In one option, she can buy 4 notebooks and 3 pens and in the other option she can buy 3 notebooks and 5 pens.

How to find the possibilities of the student to buy pens and notebooks?

To find the student's possibilities to buy pens and notebooks we must take into account his total budget of $360. Additionally, the values of the notebooks and pens that are: $60 and $36 respectively.

We must multiply the value of the notebooks by the number of notebooks that we believe the student can buy, this would be a range between 3 and 4 notebooks. Additionally, once we decide the number of notebooks we can divide the remaining money in the value of the pens to find the number of pens that the student can buy. According to the above:

4 * 60 = 240360 - 240 = 120120 / 36 = 3,33336 * 3 = 108108 - 120 = 12

3 * 60 = 180360 - 180 = 180180 / 36 = 55*36=180

What is the known probability when two events will both occur such that the probabilities of the individual events are from its product?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that two independent events will both occur can be calculated by multiplying the probabilities of the individual events. If event A has probability p(A) and event B has probability p(B), then the probability that both events A and B occur is given by:

p(A and B) = p(A) * p(B)

This relationship holds because the occurrence of event A does not affect the occurrence of event B, and vice versa. Hence, the two events are considered to be independent.

For example, if event A has a probability of 0.6 of occurring and event B has a probability of 0.7 of occurring, then the probability that both events will occur is 0.6 * 0.7 = 0.42.

what is 2 tbsp to g ?

Answers

Since, 1 Tablespoon is equal to 15 Gram.

Therefore, 2 Tablespoon is equal to 1/8 cups or 29.5 grams.

Gram:

The gram (originally gram; SI unit symbol g) is a unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one thousandth of a kilogram.

Originally defined in 1795 as "the absolute weight of a volume of pure water equal to one hundredth of a meter at the temperature at which ice melts." The positive temperature (~0 °C) was later changed to 4 °C, the temperature of maximum density of water.

However, towards the end of the 19th century, attempts were made to make the kilogram the base unit and the gram the derived unit. In 1960, the new International System of Units defined the gram as one thousandth of a kilogram (i.e., 1 gram equals 1 × 10-3 kg. As of 2019, the kilogram is defined by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures based on the fixed value of Planck's constant (h),  

6.62607015 × 10-34 kg⋅m2⋅s-1.

According to the Question:

Convert from tablespoons to grams by multiplying the volume by 14.786765 times the density of the ingredient or material.

Using this simple formula, it can be converted to:

Grams = Tablespoons × 14.786765 × Ingredient Density

Therefore,

Grams = 02 × 14.786765

           = 29.57353

So the volume in grams is equal to the number of tablespoons times the density of the material or material times 14.786765.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent yield formula is used to calculate the efficiency of a chemical reaction in producing a desired product. It is defined as the ratio of the actual yield of a product to its theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage.

The formula for percent yield is:

Percent Yield = (Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield) * 100%

where:

Actual Yield is the amount of product actually produced in the reaction.

Theoretical Yield is the maximum amount of product that could be produced in a reaction under ideal conditions, calculated from the stoichiometry of the reaction.

By using this formula, you can determine how well a reaction is performing and identify areas for improvement to increase the yield of the desired product.

What is the surface area of the square pyramid net?

Answers

The surface area of a square pyramid net can be found by adding the areas of the base and the four triangular faces.

First, find the area of the base by multiplying the length and width of the square base.

Area of base = length × width

Next, find the area of one of the triangular faces by using the formula:

Area of triangle = 0.5 × base × height

Since there are four triangular faces in a square pyramid, multiply the area of one triangle by four to find the total area of the triangular faces.

Area of triangular faces = 4 × (0.5 × base × height)

Finally, add the area of the base and the area of the triangular faces to find the total surface area of the square pyramid net.

Surface area = Area of base + Area of triangular faces

= (length × width) + (4 × (0.5 × base × height))

= (length × width) + (2 × base × height)

So, the surface area of a square pyramid net is the sum of the area of the base and the area of the four triangular faces.
