I believe the value of log3 729 is 6
<span>Total mass of mixture is given as 5/6 pound, in which 1/4 pound is gravel. Amount of sand in the mixture will be 5/6 - 1/4 = 7/12
So, the ratio of sand to that of gravel in given mixture is 7/12:1/4 = 7:3. i.e every 10
parts of mixture contain 7 parts of sand and 3 parts of gravel.
If we are given 1-pound of same mixture, it will contain 1 * 3/10 pound gravel, i.e. 0.3 pound.</span>
The total cost of the camera is $268.26
A down payment of $12 was paid so he now owes $256.26
Every 6 months Emil has to pay:
256.26 / 6 = 42.71
Therefore, each moth, Emil has to pay $42.71
Unit rate = price/quantity
= 40/16
=2.5 per pair (2.5/1)
