To solve this problem, we need to convert the weight of the package from grams to ounces.
1 ounce is approximately 28.35 grams.
Therefore, 168 grams is approximately 168/28.35 = 5.93 ounces.
The first ounce costs 54 cents, and each additional ounce costs 39 cents.
For the first ounce, the cost is 54 cents.
For the additional 4.93 ounces, the cost is 4.93 * 39 cents = $1.92.
So, the total cost is 54 cents + $1.92 = $2.46.
Therefore, the correct answer is D) $2.49.
Solve the problem.
If a freight carrier charges 54 cents for a package up to one ounce and 39 cents for each additional ounce or fraction of an ounce, find the cost of shipping a package that weighs 168 grams.

A tank has a capacity of 55,000 cubic feet. How many gallons of water does the tank hold?
Question 40 options:
A)
411,400 gal
B)
7353 gal
C)
55,000 gal
D)
238 gal
To solve this problem, we need to convert the capacity of the tank from cubic feet to gallons.
1 cubic foot is approximately equal to 7.48 gallons.
Therefore, 55,000 cubic feet is approximately 55,000 * 7.48 gallons = 410,600 gallons.
Therefore, the correct answer is A) 411,400 gallons.
1 cubic foot is approximately equal to 7.48 gallons.
Therefore, 55,000 cubic feet is approximately 55,000 * 7.48 gallons = 410,600 gallons.
Therefore, the correct answer is A) 411,400 gallons.

Question 25 options:
A)
6800 respondents
B)
680 respondents
C)
3600 respondents
D)
360 respondents
To find out how many respondents stated that they watched the news 5-6 times in the last week, we need to look at the chart.
The circle graph shows that this category represents 18% of the total respondents.
If the total number of respondents is approximately 20,000, then we can calculate 18% of 20,000:
18% of 20,000 = (18/100) * 20,000 = 0.18 * 20,000 = 3,600 respondents.
Therefore, the correct answer is C) 3,600 respondents.
