Answer:
C. 490.
Step-by-step explanation:
25% = 0.25.
If the number of emails that Ryan and Taylor each received is x emails then Sara received 2x + 0.25 * 2x = 2.5 emails.
So 2x + 2.5x = 882
x = 882/4.5
x = 196.
So Sara received 2.5 * 196
= 490 emails.
Answer:
Apples and Peaches
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.
Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:
... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59
... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples
Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:
... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15
... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums
The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).
_____
<em>Comment on</em> the best deal
No criteria are provided for determining the best deal. Though plums are higher-priced, they have somewhat higher polyphenol content than apples or peaches, so may provide the best deal in terms of nutrition per dollar.
