Answer: 31 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Fedex charges a flat rate of $2.50 plus $0.85 per pound and that the total cost of sending gifts to the Jones is $28.85. This can be mathematically expressed as:

2.50 + 0.85p = 28.85

where p = weight of the gift

So we have to solve the equation

2.50 + 0.85p = 28.85

0.85p = 28.85 - 2.50

0.85p = 26.35

p = 26.35/0.85

p = 31

Therefore the weight of the gift is 31 pounds

Min-Jee is planting two rectangular flower beds. One bed is 2.78 feet by 4.81 feet, and the other bed is 2.78 feet by 5.61 feet.

Answer:  (2.78+4.81)(2.78+5.61)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is attached.</h3><h3></h3>

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

A=lw

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

Then, you can notice that it can be obtained by multiplying the dimensions of the rectangle.

Knowing this, you can determine that the total area of the two flowers bed can be obtained by adding the products of their dimensions.

Since one of the rectangular flower bed is 2.78 feet by 4.81 feet and the other bed  2.78 feet by 5.61 feet, you can write the following expression to find the total area (in square feet)of the two beds:

2.78*4.81 +2.78*5.61

If you factor out 2.78:

2.78(4.81 +5.61) or (4.81 +5.61)2.78

Therefore, the expression that does not represent the total area in square feet of the two beds, is:

(2.78+4.81)(2.78+5.61)
