Answer:

$22.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to add up $9.00 + $9.00 because it's 6 for $9.00 which is $18 and now you have 12 cantaloupes but since you need 15 you now divide 6 by 9.00 which gives you $1.50 which is the origanl price the cantaloupes were before and now you find the price of 3 cantaloupes 3x$1.50 = $4.50 now you add $18 + 4.50 = $22.50 :)

At the same store, Peter bought 2 pairs of pants and 5 shirts for $61, and Jessica bought 3 pairs of pants and 4 shirts for $67.
svetlana [45]

Hey there!!

Given :

The total cost for 2 pairs of pants and 5 shirts is $61.

The total cost for 3 pairs of paints and 4 shirts is $67.

<em>Let's take the cost for each pair of paints as 'p' and the cost for each shirt as 's'. </em>

Now, let's get these into an equation.

<em>Peter's equation</em> :

... 2p + 5s = 61

<em>Jessica's equation : </em>

...3p + 4s = 67

......................................................................................................

2p + 5s = 61 --- (1)

3p + 4s = 67 --- (2)

Multiply the first equation with 3 and the second equation with 2.

6p + 15s = 183

6p + 8s = 134

S<em>ubtract both the equations - </em>

... 7s = 49

Divide both sides with 7.

... s = 7

<u><em>Hence, the cost of each shirt is $7. </em></u>

Hope my answer helps!!

On a blueprint, the scale indicates that 6 cm represent 15 feet. What is the length of a room that is 9 cm long and 4 cm wide on
kupik [55]
The scale length is 9cm and the scale is 6cm/15ft which is 3cm/5ft, so we can say:

9cm(5ft/3cm)=15ft for the length

If you wanted the width too...

4cm(5ft/3cm)=20ft/3  (6'8", 6ft 8in)

What is the solution to the problem expressed to the correct number of significant figures? 15. 11 (142 × 16. 5) = ? A. 2,358 B.
olchik [2.2K]

The solution to the problem expressed  2358.

<h3>What is the meaning of significant figure?</h3>

Significant figure It is defined as the minimum number of digit us needed to express a number in scientific notation.

Therefore we get,

15.11+(142\times16.5)

First we have to multiply the given digits as per rule.

=15.11+2343

Now we will add both the digits, we get

=2358.11

As per given expression, we conclude that the number of significant figure is 4.

So, the answer will be, 2358.

Therefore, the correct option is, 2358.
