Answers is
x=5 y=20 (5,20)
Brand X costs $1.56 for 12 ounces
Brand X: cost of each ounce = $1.56 / 12 = $0.13
Brand Y costs 2 cents more per ounce, so the cost of brand Y per ounce= $0.13 + $0.02 = $0.15
The cost of 15 ounces of brand Y = $0.15 x 15 = $2.25
Answer
$2.25
Get the distance between two acres.
2.5 - 2.4 = 0.1
Divide the diffence by 2
0.1 / 2 = 0.05 - Halfway between them.
Therefore, 0.05 must be taken from 2.5 acres. it must be added to 2.4 acres to get the exact area of the park.
2.5 - 0.05 = 2.45
2.4 + 0.04 = 2.45 acres
OR
Simply get the average of the two to get the area since it is exactly halfway between the two acres of land.
2.5 + 2.4 = 2.9 / 2 = 2.45 acres
The answer is 8 3/4,hope Ive helped xx
