The cost of 3 and 1/2 pounds of almond at the same rate is $26.60.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

A fraction is simply a piece of a whole. The number is represented mathematically as a quotient where the numerator and denominator are split. In the illustration given as m/n, it should be noted that m is the numerator and n is the denominator.

Since the price for 7/8 of a pound of almonds is $6.65, the fraction per pound will be done by dividing the amount for a pound by 7/8.

= $6.65 ÷ 7/8

= $7.6

The cost of 3 and 1/2 pounds at the same rate is:

= 3 1/2 × $7.6

= $26.60

In conclusion, the cost is $26.60.

Which description is true about pre-image ABC and image A′B′C′ ?

scoray [572]

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph attached,

In ΔABC and ΔA'B'C',

∠A ≅ ∠A'

∠B ≅ ∠B'

Therefore, ΔABC ~ ΔA'B'C'

Corresponding sides of these triangles will be proportional.

$\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{A'B'}}=\frac{\text{BC}}{\text{B'C'}}=\frac{\text{AC}}{\text{A'C'}}=\frac{2}{6}$

Therefore, ratio of the sides, AC : A'C' = 1 : 3 shows that image triangle A'B'C' is a dilated form of pre-image ABC with a scale factor of 3.

Option (C) will be the correct option.

The value of the 7 in 27,459 is how many times the value of the 7 in 40,735?

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The 7 in 27,459 is in the <em>thousands</em> place.

The 7 in 40,735 is in the <em>hundreds</em> place.

Any digit in the thousands place has 10 times the value of the same digit in the hundreds place. (The multiplier is 1000, instead of 100.)

_____

In the base-10 number system, each digit location has 10 times the value of the location to its right. The value is determined by the place the digit occupies in the number. That is why it is called a place-value number system.
