<h3>Answer: Choice A)  28.50+b = 45.50</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

28.50 = cost of shirt

b = cost of belt, some unknown value

45.50 = total cost (given)

28.50+b = total cost (add the first two items shown above)

equate the two total cost expressions to end up with 28.50+b = 45.50

ZanzabumX [31]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. $2693.12
  2. $2125.00
  3. B) The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

1. Each year the balance is multiplied by 1.09, so after 5 years, the balance is multiplied by 1.09^5 ≈ 1.53862395. Subtracting the original invetment amount gives the value of the interest earned.

... 5000 × 1.53862395 - 5000 = 5000 × 0.53862395

... ≈ 2693.12 . . . . matches choice D

2. The interest earned is given by the formula ...

... I = Prt . . . . .  where P is the principal, r is the interest rate, and t is the time period.

Filling in the given numbers, you have ...

... I = 2500×0.085×10 = 2125 . . . . matches choice B

3. The product of length and width is the area. If both length and width are multiplied by 3.2, then the area is multiplied by 3.2×3.2 = 10.24. The appropriate choice is B.

Melissa buys 212 pounds of salmon and 114 pounds of swordfish. She pays a total of $31.25, and the swordfish costs $0.20 per pou
eimsori [14]

Answer:

C. $16.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost per pound of salmon be represented by x

The cost per pound of swordfish be represented by y

Melissa buys 2 1/2 pounds of salmon and 1 1/4 pounds of swordfish. She pays a total of $31.25

2.5 × x + 1.25× y = $31.25

2.5x + 1.25y = 31.25

The swordfish costs $0.20 per pound less than the salmon.

y = x - 0.20

Hence, we substitute

2.5x + 1.25y = 31.25

2.5y + 1.25(x - 0.20) = 31.25

2.5y + 1.25x - 0.25 = 31.25

2.5x + 1.25x = 31.25 + 0.25

3.75x = 31.5

x = 31.5/3.75

x = $8.4

The cost per pound of salmon be represented by x = $8.4

y = x - 0.20

y = 8.4 - 0.20

y = $8.2

The cost per pound of swordfish be represented by y = $8.2

The cost of a pound of salmon and sword fish

= $8.4 + $8.2

=$16.60
