Mr.Manciel is planning an event at a local hotel. The hotel owner told him that the dance floor in the ballroom is about 1,500 s

Yes it was reasonable. I say it is resonable because if you multiply 44 times 25 it is 1,100 so the estimate was close enough

Andrea bought 1 2/5 pounds of avocados at $4.20 per pound and 2 1/

guapka [62]

Answer:

$14.43¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given; $1\frac{2}{5}$ pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and $2\frac{1}{4}$ pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.

Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $1\frac{2}{5}$ to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Avocados</u>

$\frac{4.2}{1}=\frac{x}{1.4}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{1.4}=\frac{4.2}{1}$

Apply rule: $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{1.4}=4.2$

Multiply both sides by 1.4

$\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=4.2\cdot \:1.4$

Simplify

$x=5.88$

So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢

Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $2\frac{1}{4}$ to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Asparagus</u>

$\frac{3.8}{1}=\frac{x}{2.25}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{2.25}=\frac{3.8}{1}$

Apply rule : $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{2.25}=3.8$

Multiply both sides by 2.25

$\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=3.8\cdot \:2.25$

Simplify

$x=8.55$

So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢

<u>Total cost</u>

Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:

$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =

5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43

Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢

ANSWER PLEASE 40 POINTS!

Answer: |10 - (-8)|

The absolute value is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two numbers is a subtraction equation.

10 - (-8) Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive

10 + 8 = 18

If you look at it as the first negative sign means -1 multiplied by the next negative number, "Remember that a negative times a negative is a positive!"
