Set up a proportion. 3.50 over 5 = x over 1 (x is what we are trying to find= the cost of 1 lb of apples)
Use cross products and multiply 3.50 by 1 to get 3.50 and then divide that by 5 to get 0.7.
So the apple cost 0.7 or seventy cents per pound.
Check: 0.7*5=3.5
That is correct!
Hope this helps!

Answer:
The function that represents the mass of the sample after t days is
.
The percentage rate of change per hour is of -2.46%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential amount of decay:
The exponential amount of decay for an amount of a substance after t days is given by:

In which A(0) is the initial amount, and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Element X is a radioactive isotope such that its mass decreases by 59% every day. The experiments starts out with 390 grams of Element X.
This means, respectively, that 
So



The function that represents the mass of the sample after t days is
.
Hourly rate of change:
Decreases by 59% every day, which means that for 24 hours, the rate of change is of -59%. So
-59%/24 = -2.46%
The percentage rate of change per hour is of -2.46%.
Answer: There were 32 teachers.
Step-by-step explanation:
(215 - 23)/6 = amount of teachers
215 - 23 = 192
192/6 = 32
