Given:
grapes = 2 1/2 pounds
apples = 1 1/4 times as many pounds as grapes.
For easier computation, let us convert these fractions into numbers with decimal places.
2 1/2 pounds = 2.50 pounds
1 1/4 times = 1.25
Apples = 2.50 pounds * 1.25 = 3.125 pounds of apples.
Or we still use fractions. We need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.
2 1/2 = 5/2
1 1/4 = 5/4
5/2 * 5/4 = 5*5 / 2*4 = 25/8 is simplified to 3 1/8 pounds
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 km per trip x 2 trips = 4 km
Ok so 117.45 is total then u subtract 117.45 by 22.95 equals 94.5 and u divide by 3 so u get 31.5 and add the unit rate so the answer is $31.50
Well, we know that y=1/2x+5 from the first equation. if we substitute that into the second equation, it becomes 2x + 1/2x +5 =1. solve for x. 2x+1/2x= -4, 2 1/2x=-4, x=-1.6. plug that in to one of the equations. 2(-1.6)+y=1, -3.2+y=1, y=-2.2. the solution is (-1.6, -2.2)
