It’s that time again, time for Autumn to host a huge Autumn Madness party. For last year’s party she spent $60 on sodas and she bought 50 pounds of bananas. This year she plans to buy only half as many sodas. The price of soda this year is 20% more than it was last year. She also decided she needs three times as many bananas as last year, because the “pretend your banana is a phone and walk around the mall for 30 minutes” prank was so successful last year. Unfortunately, the price of bananas is 75% more than the $.48 per-pound price she paid last year. How much will she have to spend on soda and bananas?
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
