Let x be he price of 2 pound of cheese. Then:
13.45/5 = x/2
x = 13.45*2/5
x = 5.38
The answer will be $5.38

Answer:

The cost would be $ 5.38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The price of 5 pounds of cheese = $ 13.45,

So, the price of 1 pounds of cheese = \frac{\text{Price of }5\text{ pounds of cheese}}{5}

=\frac{13.45}{5}

=\$ 2.69

Thus, the price of 2 pounds of cheese = 2 × price of each pound of cheese

= 2 × 2.69

= $ 5.38

The number of people who caught a col is 8t-5t^2+t^3,. A9nd the number of people who recovered are t-t^2+1/5t^3. Write a polynom
Nataliya [291]
Well.. so many folks caught a cold
so many off that total, recovered,
keep in mind that, the folks who recovered
are just a fraction of the ones who were
sick

so... simply subtract the "recovered" polynomial,
from the "caugh cold" polynomial, namely
\begin{cases}
8t-5t^2+t^3\impliedby &\textit{caught a cold}\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\

\cfrac{5-t^2+1}{5t^3}\impliedby &recovered
\end{cases}
\\ \quad \\\
[8t-5t^2+t^3]-\left[ \cfrac{5-t^2+1}{5t^3} \right]\implies \textit{still sick}
