A company recently replaced its 9-oz cup of yogurt with a 7-oz cup and reduced the suggested retail price from 87 cents to 75 cents. Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup? If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

Question 1

Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup? No it's not the same

Question 2

If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

13.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first yoghurt cup size = 9 oz

The second and recent yoghurt cup size = 7 oz

The difference in ounces = 9 oz - 7 oz

= 2 oz

Converting this difference to percentage

= 2 oz/ 9 oz × 100%

= 22.222222222%

The percent reduction in cup size is approximately

22.2%.

The first retail price per ounce = 87 cents

The second and recent retail price per ounce =75 cents

The difference in prices = 87 cents - 75 cents

= 12 cents

Converting this difference to percentage

= 12 cents / 87 cents × 100%

= 13.793103448%

The percent reduction in yoghurt price per ounce is approximately

13.8%.

Question 1

Was the price per ounce reduced by the same percent as the size of the cup?

From the above calculation,

Percent reduction in price per ounce =

13.8%

Percent reduction in the size of the cup = 22.2%

13.8% ≠ 22.2%

Therefore, it is not the same

Question 2

If not, find the price difference per ounce in terms of a percent.

Therefore, the price difference per ounce in terms of percent is

13.793103448%.

Approximately ≈ 13.8%

darn right!

step-by-step explanation:

steve kerr's sons name is let that skin in.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
