What do these two changes have in common? an old sandwich rotting in a trashcan milk going sour
[ "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling." ]
C
Step 1: Think about each change. A sandwich rotting is a chemical change. The matter in the sandwich breaks down and slowly turns into a different type of matter. Milk going sour is a chemical change. The type of matter in the milk slowly changes. The new matter that is formed gives the milk its sour taste. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Amanda is figuring out how many bags of grass seed she needs to buy to cover a new lot the city is turning into a park. The lot measures 120 feet by 60 feet. One section that measures 40 feet by 40 feet will be covered with concrete, and the rest needs to be covered in grass seeds. Each bag of grass seeds covers 56 square feet. How many bags of grass seeds does Amanda need?
null
100
First find the area of the lot by multiplying the width and the length: 120 ft * 60 ft = <<120*60=7200>>7200 sq ft. Then find the area of the square covered in concrete: 40 ft * 40 ft = <<40*40=1600>>1600 sq ft. Then subtract the concrete area from the total area to find the grassy area: 7200 sq ft - 1600 sq ft = <<7200-1600=5600>>5600 sq ft. Finally, divide this area by the area each bag covers to find the number of bags: 5600 sq ft / 56 sq ft/bag = <<5600/56=100>>100 bags. #### 100

Vivi bought fabric to make new pillows for her bed. She spent $75 on checkered fabric and $45 on plain fabric. If both fabrics cost $7.50 per yard, how many total yards of fabric did she buy?

The total yards of the checkered fabric is $75 / 7.50 = <<75/7.50=10>>10. The total yards of the plain fabric is 45 / 7.50 = <<45/7.50=6>>6. So, Vivi bought a total of 10 + 6 = <<10+6=16>>16 yards of fabric. #### 16

null

Jennifer bought twice as many as Emily (who bought 6 candies) which is 6*2 = <<6*2=12>>12 candies 12 candies (that Jennifer bought) is three times as much as what Bob bought which means 3*what Bob bought = 12 Dividing both sides of the equation by 3 gives: Number of candies Bob bought = 12/3 = <<12/3=4>>4 candies #### 4

Sabina is starting her first year of college that costs $30,000. She has saved $10,000 for her first year. She was awarded a grant that will cover 40% of the remainder of her tuition. How much will Sabina need to apply for to receive a loan that will cover her tuition?
null
12000
The remainder of Sabina’s tuition bill comes to $30,000 - $10,000 = $<<30000-10000=20000>>20,000. The grant will cover $20,000 * 0.40 = $<<20000*0.40=8000>>8,000 of her tuition. That means that Sabina will need to apply for a loan of $20,000 - $8,000 = $<<20000-8000=12000>>12,000 to pay for the rest of her tuition. #### 12000

Frank sold 4 hamburgers and then sold 2 more, so all together Frank already sold 4+2= <<4+2=6>>6 hamburgers If each hamburger is $5 and he sold 6 hamburgers already, Frank has made 5*6= <<5*6=30>>30 dollars. Frank wants to make $50 and has already made $30, so Frank still needs 50-30= <<50-30=20>>20 dollars. Since he needs $20 and each hamburger is $5, Frank needs to sell 20/5= <<20/5=4>>4 more hamburgers #### 4

Let V be the cost of each dress. (7 * V) + (4 * 5) = $69. So, 7 * V + 20 = $69. 7V = $49. V = $49/7. V = $<<7=7>>7. #### 7
