Last year, a 1.6-gallon container of ice cream sold for $5.99. This year, the same ice cream, now in a 1.2-gallon container, sells for the same price of $5.99. By what percentage was the weight of a container of the ice cream reduced? A. 75% B. 25% C. 60% D. 40%​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

25% is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

From last year to this year, the weight of the container is reduced by  

B. 25%

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a value per hundredth. Percentages can be converted into decimals and fractions by dividing the percentage value by a hundred.

Given, Last year, a 1.6-gallon container of ice cream sold for $5.99. This year, the same ice cream is now in a 1.2-gallon container.

So, The amount of icecream increased this year is,

= (1.6 - 1.2) gallons.

= 0.4 gallons.

Now to obtain percentage change we'll divide the net amount change by the original amount and multiply it by 100% which is,

= (0.4/1.6)×100%.

= 0.25×100%.

= 25%.

The number of bacteria at the beginning of an experiment was 30 and the bacteria grow at an hourly rate of 1.4 percent. Using the model given by () = 0e, estimate the number of bacteria, rounded to the nearest whole number after 20 hours.

Answers

Answer:

The estimated number of bacteria after 20 hours is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case where a geometrical progression is reported, which is a particular case of exponential growth and is defined by the following formula:

[tex]n(t) = n_{o}\cdot \left(1+\frac{r}{100} \right)^{t}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]n_{o}[/tex] - Initial number of bacteria, dimensionless.

[tex]r[/tex] - Increase growth of the experiment, expressed in percentage.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in hours.

[tex]n(t)[/tex] - Current number of bacteria, dimensionless.

If we know that [tex]n_{o} = 30[/tex], [tex]r = 1.4[/tex] and [tex]t = 20\,h[/tex], then the number of bacteria after 20 hours is:

[tex]n(t) = 30\cdot \left(1+\frac{1.4}{100} \right)^{20}[/tex]

[tex]n(t) \approx 39.616[/tex]

[tex]n(t) = 40[/tex]

The estimated number of bacteria after 20 hours is 40.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why:

1 centimeter= 0.01 meter

So, if you have 26 cm, that equals 0.26 meters.

Now, we know that there are 60 seconds in a minute.

So, we have to do 0.26 times 60 which equals 15.6 meters.

You can buy 5 cans of green beans at the village market for $2.30, or you can buy 10 of them at Best Food for $5.10. Which place is the better buy?​

Answers

Answer:

The village market

Step-by-step explanation:

Price per can at the village market

= 2.30÷5

= $0.46

Price per can at Best Food

=5.10÷10

= $0.51

Answer:

Village market

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the unit rate at village market and Best food and compare.

Village market:

Rate per can  = 2.30 ÷ 5

                      = $ 0.46

Best food:

Rate per can = 5.10 ÷ 10

                     = 0.51

0.46 < 0.51

Buying can from village market is best buy as that is less priced

Answer:

180 degrees is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of an 180⁰ degree rotation is:

(x,y) -> (-x,-y)

So the x and y coordinates change from negative to positive or from positive to negative

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  180°

Step-by-step explanation:

When you look at the coordinates, you see that each one has been negated. That is, the image point is in the quadrant opposite the one the preimage point is in.

Every point and its image on a rotated figure makes an angle with the center of rotation that is equal to the angle of rotation. When the preimage and image points are in opposite (not adjacent) quadrants, that angle is 180°.

______

Additional comment

It can be helpful to learn to recognize certain transformations. A rotation of 90° will swap the coordinates and negate one of them. A rotation of 180° negates both coordinates without swapping them.
