First and last terms of the given equation are perfect squares. They can be written as
(4p^2)^2+ 2.(4p^2).5+(5)^2
It's like identity 1: (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2
So a=4p^2 and b=5
Therefore it is equal to (4p^2+5)^2
0.7+0.75=1.45 (this total is for both steaks)
8.68÷1.45=0.60 (the total he paid for both steaks divide by the total weight of the steaks.)
so, the answer is 60cents per lb. on the steaks.
75 is equivalent to 0.75 and
3 devided by 4 is 0.75 i would choose A and B
