1. Jamie is building a box by the pool for the pool toys. They want the box’s volume to be 31.5 cubic feet. The space can hold a box that is 4.5 ft. long and 2.5 ft. wide. How high should the box be in order to meet the volume requirement? Write your answer in decimal form. (The volume of a box is length times width times height.)
2. Gaston and his wife, Giselle, are driving to a friend’s wedding 258.6 miles from home. If they average 55.8 mph, how long will it take to get to the wedding? Write your answer in decimal form and round to the nearest tenth.(1 point)
3. Marcel stopped at the gas station to fill up on his way home from work. His total credit card charge is $28.55, and he got 10.65 gallons of gas. What was the price per gallon? Round to the nearest cent.(1 point)

4. Gabi and her girlfriend are running a booth at the carnival selling small decorated bags of candy. In order to make more profit, they purchase candy in a large bag that they will sort into 0.75-pound bags of candy. They were able to find large bags of candy that contain 18.8 pounds of candy. If they are selling the small bags of candy for $1.50, how much can they make from each large bag? Round to the nearest whole bag of candy and the nearest cent.(1 point)

5. If an airplane can travel 875.9 miles in 2.3 hours, what is the average speed of the plane? Round to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
1. To find the height of the box, we need to divide the desired volume by the product of the length and width of the box. The equation is: height = volume / (length * width). Plugging in the values, height = 31.5 / (4.5 * 2.5) = 2.8 ft.
2. To find the time it will take to get to the wedding, we need to divide the distance by the average speed. The equation is: time = distance / speed. Plugging in the values, time = 258.6 / 55.8 = 4.63 hours.
3. To find the price per gallon, we need to divide the total charge by the number of gallons. The equation is: price per gallon = total charge / gallons. Plugging in the values, price per gallon = 28.55 / 10.65 ≈ $2.68.
4. To find how much they can make from each large bag, we need to divide the weight of the large bag by the weight of each small bag and multiply it by the price of each small bag. The equation is: profit per large bag = (weight of large bag / weight of small bag) * price of small bag. Plugging in the values, profit per large bag = (18.8 / 0.75) * $1.50 ≈ $37.
5. To find the average speed of the plane, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken. The equation is: average speed = distance / time. Plugging in the values, average speed = 875.9 / 2.3 ≈ 380.83 mph.

It looks like you have provided a sequence of letters: a b a a b. Is there something specific you would like me to do with this sequence, or do you have any other questions?
CHeck number 2 and 4
Apologies for the error. Let's recheck numbers 2 and 4:
2. Gaston and his wife, Giselle, are driving to a friend’s wedding 258.6 miles from home. If they average 55.8 mph, how long will it take to get to the wedding? Write your answer in decimal form and round to the nearest tenth.
To find the time it will take to get to the wedding, we need to divide the distance by the average speed. The equation is: time = distance / speed. Plugging in the values, time = 258.6 / 55.8 = 4.631 hours. Rounded to the nearest tenth, it will take approximately 4.6 hours to get to the wedding.
4. Gabi and her girlfriend are running a booth at the carnival selling small decorated bags of candy. In order to make more profit, they purchase candy in a large bag that they will sort into 0.75-pound bags of candy. They were able to find large bags of candy that contain 18.8 pounds of candy. If they are selling the small bags of candy for $1.50, how much can they make from each large bag? Round to the nearest whole bag of candy and the nearest cent.
To find how much they can make from each large bag, we need to divide the weight of the large bag by the weight of each small bag and multiply it by the price of each small bag. The equation is: profit per large bag = (weight of large bag / weight of small bag) * price of small bag. Plugging in the values, profit per large bag = (18.8 / 0.75) * $1.50 = $37.60. Rounded to the nearest cent, they can make $37.60 from each large bag.
check number 4
Apologies once again for the mistake. Let's recheck number 4:

To find how much they can make from each large bag, we need to divide the weight of the large bag by the weight of each small bag and multiply it by the price of each small bag. The equation is: profit per large bag = (weight of large bag / weight of small bag) * price of small bag.
Weight of each small bag = 0.75 pounds
Weight of large bag = 18.8 pounds
Price of each small bag = $1.50
Profit per large bag = (18.8 / 0.75) * $1.50 ≈ 37.867
Rounded to the nearest cent, they can make $37.87 from each large bag.
i got one wrong for my practice but the rest were correct the wrong one was 4.
I apologize for the previous mistake. Let's recheck number 4:

So, in this case, the answer remains the same. Apologies for the confusion caused.
