B

Let’s put this into a simple equation

8 apples = 2.96

We can substitute apples for x

8x=2.96

She divided by 8

X= 2.96/8

Remember x represents apples so only 1 x represents 1 apple

So that means the answer is B.

Hope that helped!

Answer:

B. In order to find out how much she paid per apple

Step-by-step explanation:

Molli purchased 8 apples for $2.96

Let's find the cost of an apple.

Let "x" be the cost of an apple. So the equation is

8x = $2.96

To find the value of x, we need to divide both sides by 8, we get

\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{2.96}{8}

x = \frac{2.96}{8}

When we divided 2.96 by 8, we will come to know the cost of an apple.

Therefore, the answer  B. In order to find out how much she paid per apple

If a 50 ft flagpole casts a 95 ft shadow, then how long is the shadow that a 5 ft tall of man casts ?
lesantik [10]

9.5 feet,to find that you must find out how many times longer the shadow of the pole is than the pole, and to do that you must divide 95 by 50, in which you get 1.9. And then to find the length of the shadow the man casts you must multiply his height by 1.9.
