You need to purchase supplies for an employee appreciation picnic. Your boss gives you the shopping list below and asks that you

get the best deal by buying from one grocer, either Quality Groceries or Fresh Market. You call both grocers, and they provide the price information that you put into in the table. Which grocer will provide all these picnic supplies for the lowest cost, and what is that cost without sales tax?

To calculate the necessary units, divide the required quantity listed in the upper section of the table by the package size in the lower section, then multiply by the price provided. Round all results to whole numbers.

Next, sum the total expense for Quality Groceries as follows:

(5*15.5)+(2*6.23)+(7*3.79)+(2*2.75)+(2*4.33)+(5*7.55)

= $168.40

Then, calculate the amount to spend at Fresh Market:

(7*12.4)+(3*4.99)+(7*3.55)+(3*2.55)+(2*5.55)+(5*6.99)

= $180.32

Therefore, the correct choice is option B.

To find the total cost, divide the required quantity by the size of each package, then multiply by the package price. If the result isn't an exact whole number, round it up to the next whole package.

Quality Groceries (QG) calculation:

5 × $15.50 + 2 × $6.23 + 7 × $3.79 + 2 × $2.75 + 2 × $4.33 + 5 × $7.55 = $168.40

Fresh Market (FM) calculation:

7 × $12.40 + 3 × $4.99 + 7 × $3.55 + 3 × $2.55 + 2 × $5.55 + 5 × $6.99 = $180.32

The correct choice is B.

Find the missing term in the following sequence ? 1, 4, 11, 26, 57, 120, ______
babunello [11817]

Answer:

247

Step-by-step explanation:

1, 4, 11, 26, 57, 120. The emerging pattern of the series is as follows:

4–1 = 3; 3–1 = 2 = 2^1

11–4 = 7; 7 - 3 = 4 = 2^2

26 - 11 = 15; 15 - 7 = 8 = 2^3

57 - 26 = 31; 31 - 15 = 16 = 2^4

120 - 57 = 63; 63 - 31 = 32 = 2^5

Thus, the next number should be 64+63 = 127+120 = 247.

Verification: 247–120 = 127; 127–63 = 64 = 2^6, which checks out.

So, the following number is indeed 247. 2^n+(n-1)

Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?
lawyer [12517]

A function is defined as a relationship where every element from the set of first components in ordered pairs correlates to exactly one element from the set of second components.

{(2, –2), (1, 5), (–2, 2), (1, –3), (8, –1)} - this is a function

{(3, –1), (7, 1), (–6, –1), (9, 1), (2, –1)} - this is also a function

{(6, 8), (5, 2), (–2, –5), (1, –3), (–2, 9)} - this represents a function

{(–3, 1), (6, 3), (–3, 2), (–3, –3), (1, –1)} - this does not qualify as a function

ALGEBRA Jake Duffy drove 12,568 miles
lawyer [12517]
The fee Jack Duffy charges per mile is $0.278, making option B correct.

Detailed explanation:

Given:

Jack Duffy's travel distance = d = 12,568 miles

Fixed costs amount to = $1,485.00

Variable costs amount to = $2,015.75

Let the cost per mile charged by Jack Duffy be = $x

According to the provided information

Total cost = Fixed costs + Variable costs

Thus, Total cost = $1,485.00 + $2,015.75

This equates to Total cost = $3,500.75

Therefore,

The cost Jack Duffy charges per mile = \dfrac{\extrm Total cost}{\textrm Total Distance}

Hence, x = $0.278 per mile

This leads us to conclude that Jack Duffy’s charging rate is $0.278 per mile, confirming option B.

Svet_ta [12734]
The correct answer is A. According to the question's details, we're provided with key statistics on zucchini weights, which suggest that the average turns out to be typically 0.8 pounds, while the standard deviation is noted as 0.25 pounds. The probability of a randomly selected zucchini weighing between 0.55 pounds and 1.3 pounds can be mathematically expressed. Observing the provided normal distribution options, option A aligns with our specified weight range.
