Set up a proportion. 3.50 over 5 = x over 1 (x is what we are trying to find= the cost of 1 lb of apples)
Use cross products and multiply 3.50 by 1 to get 3.50 and then divide that by 5 to get 0.7.
So the apple cost 0.7 or seventy cents per pound.
Check: 0.7*5=3.5
That is correct!
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
h(-6)=-(-6)-3
h(-6)=6-3
h(-6)=3
Since it includes 11% sales tax, this means that (purchase)+11% of (purchase)=25.00. Since 11% = 0.11 by multiplying it by 1/100, we have 1*purchase+0.11*purchase=1.11*purchase=25.00. Dividing both sides by 1.11, we get around 22.73 as the original purchase. This means that the difference between the purchase price and the total price is the sales tax, which is around 2.27 dollars.

The correct answer is b as she starts with 10 and keeps on added 3 dollars per week
X= 2/3
6x/x-6 - 4/x - 24 / x^2 - 6x = 0
6x^2 -4 (x-6)-24 / x(x-6) = 0
6x^2 -4x+ 24 -24/x(x-6) = 0
X(6x-4) / x(x-6)
6x-4/x-5 = 0
6x-4= 0
6x = 4 divide both sides by 6
X= 2/3
