Given the following information, determine if one of the brands is a better buy.
brand a: 14 ounces for $44.66
brand b: 20 ounces for $63.80
a) both brands cost the same per ounces
b) brand a is the better buy.
c) brand b is the better buy.
d) there is not enough information provided to determine the better buy.

For this case what we must do is find the unit price for each of the brands.

To do this, we divide the total cost between the total number of ounces.

We have then:

For the brand A:

For the brand B:

Therefore, we observe that both brands have the same unit cost and, therefore, both brands are the same purchase option.

A) Both brands cost the same per ounces

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."

its c or d   take a lucky guess my dude
