A 750 ml bottle of spirits costs $30.00 and has 16 servings per bottle. Most restaurants will charge $8.00 for one serving. How much money does a restaurant make on a bottle of spirits?
null

There are 16 servings in 1 bottle and they charge $8.00 per serving so that's 16*8 = $<<16*8=128.00>>128.00 1 bottle yields $128.00 and they spent $30.00 for the bottle so they make 128-30 = $<<128-30=98.00>>98.00 on each bottle #### 98

Krystiana owns an apartment building. The rooms on the first floor cost $15 per month and the rooms on the 2nd floor cost $20 per month. The rooms on the third floor cost twice as much as the rooms on the first floor, but only two rooms are occupied. If each floor has 3 rooms, how much does Krystiana earn every month?
null
165
Krystiana earns $15 x 3 = $<<15*3=45>>45 for the rooms on the first floor every month. She earns $20 x 3 = $<<20*3=60>>60 for the rooms on the second floor every month. And the cost for each room on the third floor is $15 x 2 = $<<15*2=30>>30. So, the total amount she earns for the rooms on the third floor is $30 x 2 = $<<30*2=60>>60 every month. Therefore, the total amount she earns from the apartment building is $60 + $60 + $45 = $<<60+60+45=165>>165. #### 165

Mike and John dined at the Taco Palace restaurant. They each ordered the Taco Grande Plate as their main meal, but Mike also ordered a side salad for $2, a plate of cheesy fries for $4, and a diet cola for $2. As a result, Mike's lunch bill was twice as large as John's bill. What was the combined total cost, in dollars, of Mike and John's lunch?
null
24
Let "x" be the cost in dollars of the Taco Grande Plate. Since twice the cost of John's Taco Plate equals the cost of Mike's Taco Plate plus added items, then 2x = x+2+4+2. Simplifying the equation, we get 2x = x+8. Subtracting x from each side of the equation, we are left with x=8 dollars as the cost of the Taco Grande Plate. Thus the combined total cost of Mike and John's lunch is 8+8+2+4+2=<<8+8+2+4+2=24>>24 dollars. #### 24

Which solution has a higher concentration of blue particles?
[ "Solution A", "neither; their concentrations are the same", "Solution B" ]
B
In Solution A and Solution B, the blue particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of blue particles, look at both the number of blue particles and the volume of the solvent in each container. Use the concentration formula to find the number of blue particles per milliliter. Solution A and Solution B have the same number of blue particles per milliliter. So, their concentrations are the same.

Based on this information, what is Roy's phenotype for the Marfan syndrome trait?
[ "having Marfan syndrome", "not having Marfan syndrome" ]
B
Roy's genotype for the Marfan syndrome gene is mm. Roy's genotype of mm has only m alleles. The m allele is for not having Marfan syndrome. So, Roy's phenotype for the Marfan syndrome trait must be not having Marfan syndrome. To check this answer, consider whether Roy's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for having Marfan syndrome (M) is dominant over the allele for not having Marfan syndrome (m). This means M is a dominant allele, and m is a recessive allele. Roy's genotype of mm has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Roy's phenotype for the Marfan syndrome trait must be not having Marfan syndrome.

Based on this information, what is Millie's phenotype for the body hair trait?
[ "a hairless body", "a hairy body" ]
A
Millie's genotype for the body hair gene is bb. Millie's genotype of bb has only b alleles. The b allele is for a hairless body. So, Millie's phenotype for the body hair trait must be a hairless body. To check this answer, consider whether Millie's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for a hairless body (b) is recessive to the allele for a hairy body (B). This means B is a dominant allele, and b is a recessive allele. Millie's genotype of bb has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Millie's phenotype for the body hair trait must be a hairless body.

Complete the text to describe the diagram. Solute particles moved in both directions across the permeable membrane. But more solute particles moved across the membrane (). When there was an equal concentration on both sides, the particles reached equilibrium.
[ "to the right than to the left", "to the left than to the right" ]

Look at the diagram again. It shows you how the solution changed during the process of diffusion. Before the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 6 solute particles on the left side of the membrane and 4 solute particles on the right side of the membrane. When the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 5 solute particles on each side of the membrane. There was 1 more solute particle on the right side of the membrane than before. So, for the solute particles to reach equilibrium, more solute particles must have moved across the membrane to the right than to the left.

Nikola is saving up for a bag of ant food before he can start his ant farm. He wants 400 ants in his farm. Each ant needs 2 ounces of food. Every ounce of ant food costs $.1. Nikola is saving up by raking leaves. He charges $5 to start a job and then he charges by the leaf. Each leaf he rakes costs 1 penny. He finally saved up enough money after he raked 6,000 leaves. How many jobs did he complete?

The ants will need 800 ounces of food because 400 x 2 = <<400*2=800>>800 The ant food will cost $80 because 800 x .1 = <<800*.1=80>>80 He has earned $60 from the leaves he has raked because 6000 leaves * $0.01/leaf = $<<6000*0.01=60>>60 He earned $20 from all his jobs because 80 - 60 = <<80-60=20>>20 He completed 4 jobs because 20 / 5 = <<20/5=4>>4 #### 4

What do these two changes have in common? water evaporating from a lake mixing sand and gravel
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are only physical changes." ]
D
Step 1: Think about each change. Water evaporating from a lake is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The liquid changes into a gas, but a different type of matter is not formed. Mixing sand and gravel is a physical change. Together, the sand and gravel make a mixture. But making this mixture does not form a different type of matter. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Water evaporating is caused by heating. But mixing sand and gravel is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Which bird's beak is also adapted to crack large, hard nuts?
[ "hoopoe", "African gray parrot" ]
B
Look at the picture of the hyacinth macaw. The hyacinth macaw has a thick hooked beak. Its beak is adapted to crack large, hard nuts. The hyacinth macaw uses its thick beak to crack the shell of a nut by squeezing it. The hooked shape of the beak can help the bird hold the nut in place while cracking it. Now look at each bird. Figure out which bird has a similar adaptation. The African gray parrot has a thick hooked beak. Its beak is adapted to crack large, hard nuts. The hoopoe has a long, thin beak. Its beak is not adapted to crack large, hard nuts.

Which solution has a higher concentration of green particles?
[ "Solution B", "neither; their concentrations are the same", "Solution A" ]
A
In Solution A and Solution B, the green particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of green particles, look at both the number of green particles and the volume of the solvent in each container. Use the concentration formula to find the number of green particles per milliliter. Solution B has more green particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of green particles.

Village Foods sells good food at a fair price. Their specialty is fresh vegetables. If they get 500 customers per month, and each customer purchases 2 heads of lettuce for $1 each and 4 tomatoes for $0.5 apiece, then how much money, in dollars, will the store receive in sales of lettuce and tomatoes per month?
null
2000
2 heads of lettuce at $1 apiece is 2*$1=$<<2*1=2>>2. 4 tomatoes at $0.50 apiece is 4*$0.5=$<<4*0.5=2>>2. Thus, each customer purchases $2+$2=$<<2+2=4>>4 in lettuce and tomatoes per month. Therefore, if 500 customers per month spend $4 on lettuce and tomatoes, then the store will receive $4*500=$<<4*500=2000>>2000 per month on sales of lettuce and tomatoes. #### 2000
