Answer:
u can find the answer in calculate
Answer:
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
x= 2.5 pounds of Granny Smith apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Gala apples = 3 lbs
Granny apples = x lbs
They cost 4.50 a pound
Total cost = 24.75
Total cost = gala apples * cost per pound + granny apples * cost per pound
Substitute in what we know
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
24.75 = 13.50 + 4.5x
Subtract 13.50 from each side
24.75-13.50 = 13.50-13.50 + 4.5x
11.25 = 4.5x
Divide by 4.50 on each side
11.25/4.5 = 4.5x/4.5
2.5 =x
-3.5x + 9.1x + 1.7 - 0.3 = 5.6x + 1.4
5/8 is 0.625 , so that would be the decimal for it
