Option D is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Let A represent the cost of one bucket of apple and P represent the cost of one bucket of peaches.
So we have ,
4 buckets of apples and 5 buckets of peaches for $64
8 buckets of apples and 3 buckets of peaches for $72
Writing this in the equation form we have,
4A + 5P = 64
8A + 3P = 72
Step 2:
Solving for the above 2 equations we can get the required costs
Equation 1 is
4A + 5P = 64 , Multiplying this by 2 we have 8A + 10P = 128
Equation 2 = 8A + 3P = 72
Subtracting both we have , 7p = 56 = > P = 8
Substituting this in equation 1 we have
8A + 80 = 128 => A = 6
Hence the cost of one bucket of apple is $6 and the cost of one bucket of apple is $8.
Option D is the correct answer.
It is a simple multiplication problem. If you work for 39 hours, and you get paid $8.17 for every hour you work, just multiply 8.17 by 39 to get the gross pay.
8.17 x 39 = 318.63
The gross pay is $318.6.

Answer:
amount of interest = 52.5
amount at the end of the period = 1052.5
Step-by-step explanation:
use the formula for simple interest
PRT/100
P is the principle
R is the rate of interest charged
T is the Time taken
18 months = 1 years 6 months ( 1.5 years)
1000 * 3.5 * 1.5 = 5250
5250/100 = 52.5
the amount of interest = <u>52.5</u>
the amount she will have at the end of the period
= 1000 +52.5
= <u>1052.5</u>
Lets name the largest number as x
smallest number is half the largest , therefore its x/2 = 0.5x
then middle number is 3/4 the largest , therefore its 3/4x = 0.75x
the sum of the three numbers are 162
the three numbers added are
x + 0.5x + 0.75x = 162
2.25 x = 162
x = 72
the largest number is 72
then middle number 0.75 x = 0.75 x 72 = 54
smallest number is 0.5x = 0.5 x 72 = 36
answer is - 36,54,72
