Answer: 23
4x4=16 ( it represents the four weeks and the four inch growth each week)
Now just do 16+7 which equals to 23
P = w * .6
Explanation: First, we must determine the price per pound of watermelon. To do this, we take the cost of the watermelons, and divide it by the number of pounds. 4.38 / 7.3, which is .6. This tells us each pound costs 60 cents, or $.6. We’re trying to say “The total price of watermelon would be the amount of watermelon bought times .6.” Plug in the variables you’re given, and you get p = w * 6.
