Bottles of sparkling water usually cost $1.69. The grocer changed the price to 4 for $5. You bought one bottle last week for $1.69 and one bottle this week at the 4 for $5 price. Did you pay more or less for the bottle this week at 4 for $5? How much more or less?

Given :

Cost of single bottle, C = $1.69 .

Cost of 4 bottles, B = $5 .

You bought one bottle last week for $1.69 and one bottle this week at the 4 for $5 price.

To Find :

Did you pay more or less for the bottle this week at 4 for $5? How much more or less?

Solution :

Effective price per bottle if we purchase 4 is, E = 5/4 = $1.25 .

Regular price, R = $1.69 .

Change in price, C = $( 1.69 - 1.25 ) = $0.44 .

Therefore, we are paying $0.44 less than the actual price.

Hence, this is the required solution.

answer:

it is general formula that is used to write value to its excet position

a11 a12 a13

a21 a22 a23

it is the example of order 2 by 3 matrix in this

a11 means value occur in 1 st row 1st column

a12 means value occurs in 1st row 2nd column

a13 means value occur in 1st row and 3rd column

a21 means value occurs in 2nd row and 1st column

a22 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 2nd column

a23 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 3rd column
