Answers


1. Part A: B: The pattern in the table is that the number of customers is increasing by 25 each week. This means that there should be 205+25 =230 customers expected in week 4.

Week Customers

Table showing number of customers each week

Part B: $2760: From Part A you know there will be 230 people in week 4. If each meal is $12 then just multiply to get the answer. 230×12=2760

2. 3: The area of a rectangular prism is A=LxWxH. The problem gives L, W, and A. To get H just divide A by L and W. 144÷8=18÷6=3. So H=3.

3. B: The total number of Evercell batteries is (4xE) and the total number of Durapower batteries is (6xD). The sum of the two is the total number of batteries in the store.

4. D: The order of operations is parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract. So for this problem it would be: 8x(5-2)+(4+5)=8×3+9=24+9=33
