Answer:
The way to answer this question is to find out the price per pound potato by dividing the amount the restaurant chief paid by the number of pounds bought.
Your question lacks details on the pounds bought in the other stores so I will assume these figures and you can use it as a reference.
Restaurant B - 2 pounds
Restaurant C - 12 pounds
Restaurant D - 5 pounds
Price per pound
Restaurant A = 6.60/8
= $0.83
Restaurant B = 3.50/2
= $1.75
Restaurant C = 9.75/12
= $0.82
Restaurant D = 4.80/8
= $0.96
<u><em>Restaurant C </em></u><em>has the lowest price per pound for potatoes. </em>
Justin's statement would be the best. In order to change 3/5 into 6/10, both sides would need to be multiplied by 2.
Answer: $15
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the markup price just multiply 30% by the amount.
30% * 50
0.3 * 50 = 15
Answer:
Let x be the price of an adult ticket and y be the price of a youth ticket.
One family spends $134 on 2 adult tickets and 3 youth tickets so we can write: 2x+3y=134
Another family spends $146 on 3 adult tickets and 2 youth tickets so we can write: 3x+2y=146
We need to find y so we eliminate x. Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 2 to obtain (3) and (4): 6x+9y=402
6x+4y=292
Subtract (3) and (4) and solve for y: 5y=110
y=22→$22
