At one farmer’s market, bananas cost $0. 80 per pound. At another farmer’s market, bananas are sold in 5-pound bags for $4. 50 p

er bag. Which explains how to find the better buy? Divide 4. 50 by 5 to find the unit rate for the 5-pound bag, and compare that number to $0. 80 per pound. Divide 0. 80 by 5 to find the unit rate for the 5-pound bag, and compare that number to $0. 80 per pound. Multiply 4. 50 by 5 to find the cost for 5 pounds, and compare to $4. 50 per bag. Multiply 4. 50 by 0. 80 to find the cost for 5 pounds, and compare to $4. 50 per bag.

To find the better buy divide 4.50 by 5 to find the unit rate for the 5-pound bag, and compare that number to $0. 80 per pound.

<h3>What is cost price per pound?</h3>

The cost price per pound is the amount of money required to buy one pound of a brand or goods.

To find the cost price per pound, divide the total amount of cost of the goods to the total number of goods.

At one farmer’s market, bananas cost $0.80 per pound.

At another farmer’s market, bananas are sold in 5-pound bags for $4. 50 per bag. To compare it with first market price, divide the 5 pound bags with $4.50.

The cost of one bag in this market is,

C=\dfrac{4.50}{5}\\C=0.5625

As this cost is less, thus, the cost of this market for one banana is less than the first market and so this is the better buy.

Hence, to find the better buy divide 4.50 by 5 to find the unit rate for the 5-pound bag, and compare that number to $0. 80 per pound.

Rewrite (2x^2+13x+26) / x+4 in the form q(x)+r(x)/b(x) . Then find q(x) and r(x). In the rewritten expression, q(x) is_____and r
likoan [24]

The value of q(x) is 2 x+5

The value of r(x) is 6

Explanation:

The given expression is \frac{2 x^{2}+13 x+26}{x+4}

We need to rewrite the expression in the form of q(x)+\frac{r(x)}{b(x)}

Simplifying the expression, we get,

\frac{2 x^{2}+8 x+5x+26}{x+4}

Separating the fractions, we have,

\frac{2 x^{2}+8 x}{x+4}+\frac{5 x+26}{x+4}

2 x+\frac{5 x+26}{x+4}  -----------(1)

Now, we shall further simplify the term \frac{5 x+26}{x+4} , we get,

\frac{5 x+26}{x+4}=\frac{5 x+20}{x+4}+\frac{6}{x+4}

Common out 5 from the numerator, we have,

\frac{5 x+26}{x+4}=5+\frac{6}{x+4}

Substituting the value \frac{5 x+26}{x+4}=5+\frac{6}{x+4} in the equation(1), we get,

2 x+5+\frac{6}{x+1}

Thus, the expression \frac{2 x^{2}+13 x+26}{x+4}=2 x+5+\frac{6}{x+1} is in the form of q(x)+\frac{r(x)}{b(x)}

Hence, we have,

q(x)=2 x+5

r(x)=6 and

b(x)=x+4
