Debra paid $12.16 for a 4.07-pound bag of shrimp at one store. The following week, she paid $14.99 for a 5.11 -pound bag at another store.
Find the unit price for each bag. Then state which bag is the better buy based on the unit price.
Bound your answers to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the better buy is that from the second store as it is cheaper than that purchased from the first store

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

First store :

Amount paid = $12.16

Pounds of shrimps = 4.07

Unit price :

Amount paid / pounds of shrimps

$12.16 / 4.07 = $2.9877

= $2.99 = 299 cents

second store :

Amount paid = $14.99

Pounds of shrimps = 5.11

Unit price :

Amount paid / pounds of shrimps

$14.99 / 5.11 = $2.933

= 2.93 = 293 cents

Hence, the better buy is that from the second store as it is cheaper than that purchased from the first store

Answers

Answer:

2 solutions:

1) m =(4-√52)/2=2-√ 13 = -1.606

2) m =(4+√52)/2=2+√ 13 = 5.606

Step-by-step explanation

The first term is,  m2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -4m  its coefficient is  -4 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -9

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -9 = -9

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -9  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -4 .

     -9    +    1    =    -8

     -3    +    3    =    0

     -1    +    9    =    8

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Equation at the end of step 1:

 m2 - 4m - 9  = 0  

STEP 2:

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

2.1      Find the Vertex of   y = m2-4m-9

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Am2+Bm+C,the  m -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  m  coordinate is   2.0000  

Plugging into the parabola formula   2.0000  for  m  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :

 y = 1.0 * 2.00 * 2.00 - 4.0 * 2.00 - 9.0

or   y = -13.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = m2-4m-9

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {m}={ 2.00}

Vertex at  {m,y} = { 2.00,-13.00}

m -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at  {m,y} = {-1.61, 0.00}

Root 2 at  {m,y} = { 5.61, 0.00}

Add  9  to both side of the equation :

  m2-4m = 9

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  m , which is  4 , divide by two, giving  2 , and finally square it giving  4

Add  4  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  9  +  4    or,  (9/1)+(4/1)

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  1   Adding  (9/1)+(4/1)  gives  13/1

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  m2-4m+4 = 13

Adding  4  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  m2-4m+4  =

  (m-2) • (m-2)  =

 (m-2)2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  m2-4m+4 = 13 and

  m2-4m+4 = (m-2)2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (m-2)2 = 13

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (m-2)2   is

  (m-2)2/2 =

 (m-2)1 =

  m-2

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #2.2.1  we get:

  m-2 = √ 13

Add  2  to both sides to obtain:

  m = 2 + √ 13

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

  m2 - 4m - 9 = 0

  has two solutions:

 m = 2 + √ 13

  or

 m = 2 - √ 13

 

Solving    m2-4m-9 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula,  m  , the solution for   Am2+Bm+C  = 0  , where  A, B  and  C  are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

                                   

           - B  ±  √ B2-4AC

 m =   ————————

                     2A

 In our case,  A   =     1

                     B   =    -4

                     C   =   -9

Accordingly,  B2  -  4AC   =

                    16 - (-36) =

                    52

Applying the quadratic formula :

              4 ± √ 52

  m  =    —————

                   2

Can  √ 52 be simplified ?

Yes!   The prime factorization of  52   is

  2•2•13

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be  2  instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 52   =  √ 2•2•13   =

               ±  2 • √ 13

 √ 13   , rounded to 4 decimal digits, is   3.6056

So now we are looking at:

          m  =  ( 4 ± 2 •  3.606 ) / 2

Two real solutions:

m =(4+√52)/2=2+√ 13 = 5.606

or:

m =(4-√52)/2=2-√ 13 = -1.606

The perimeter of a rectangle is 162 cm. The length of the rectangle is eleven centimeters more than
four times the size of the width. What is the length and width of the rectangle?​

Answers

let

width = w

length = 4w + 11

2(length) + 2(width) = perimeter

2(4w + 11) + 2(w) = 162

8w + 22 + 2w = 162

10w + 22 = 162

10w = 140

w = 14 cm (WIDTH)

length = 4w + 11

length = 4(14) + 11

length = 56 + 11

LENGTH = 67 cm

The length is 4(14)+ 11 = 67 cm and width is 14 cm.

what is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values. We frequently observe constant change in specific values in our day-to-day situations.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

Perimeter of rectangle = 162 cm

let the width be x .

then, the length is 4x+ 11

Thus, Perimeter of rectangle= 2(l + w)

162 = 2( 4x + 11 + x)

162 = 2( 5x +11)

81 = 5x+ 11

5x= 70

x= 14

Hence, the length is 4(14)+ 11 = 67 cm and width is 14 cm.

Given the 2 values, height and the base, of these 2 triangles, we can assume that they are similar (meaning they share the same angles) as we have no other information to determine the height of the tree.

Therefore, if these triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are proportional. In other words, PZ/RT = QZ/ST or RT/PZ=ST/QZ

Hence, if we find the ratio of this, we can use it to find the side h

QZ/ST=PZ/RT

48/12=PZ/4

PZ/4=48/12

(PZ/4)3=48/12

PZ(3)/12=48/12

48/3=16

16=PZ.
