The correct question is

Jackson bought 5 ounces of raisins for $4 dollars.

a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?

b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?

Part a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?

we know that

To find out the unit rate divide the total cost by the total weight

$\frac{4}{5} =\$0.8\ per\ ounce$

therefore

The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce

Part b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?

we know that

The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce

using proportion

Find out how many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1

Let

x -----> the ounces of raisins

$\frac{1}{0.8}=\frac{x}{1}\\\\x= 1.25\ ounces$

Mr. Smith wants to order some pizza and cheese pizza cost $11 and pepperoni pizza cost $12.50 if you bought 13 pieces total and

Triss [41]

Answer: Mr Smith bought 7 pepperoni pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

cost of cheese pizza =$11

pepperoni pizza cost =$12.50

let number cheese pizza be represented as c

and number of pepperoni pizza be represented as p

such that the total number of pizza bought which equals 13 can be represented as

c+ p= 13

and total cost of both pizza can be expressed as

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

Step 2 Solving

c+ p= 13

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

By elimination method, Multiply equation 1 by 11 and subtract the new equation from equation 2

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

11c+ 11p=143.

1.5p =10.5

p= 10.5/ 1.5 =7

c+ p= 13

c= 13-p =13-7=6

Therefore Mr Smith bought 6 cheese pizza and 7 pepperoni pizza

Your paycheck each week is $500.00. If you want to save $2000 in one year, how much should you set aside from each paycheck?

Mnenie [13.5K]

There are 52 weeks in a year. In order to figure out how much you have to save each week to save a total of $2000, you have to divide $2000 by 52.

2000÷52= 38.462

So to save $2000 you would have to set aside about $38.50 each week.

Hey pls help worth 30 points

GrogVix [38]

Step 1: Find the slope:

$m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \dfrac{10-6}{6-5} = \dfrac{4}{1} = 4$

Step 2: Set up your equation $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ using one of the points.

Using (5,6) we have $y-6 = 4(x-5)$ .

Using (6,10) we have $y-10 = 4(x-6)$

Both of those equations would be correct.
