Unless you just want to give money to the ice cream truck, for 0 items, you will pay 0.
Since the price of each item is $0.77, for one item you will pay $0.77. (Is that a surprise?)
Then for two items, you will pay $0.77 for each one, or $0.77 + 0.77 = $1.54. You can also compute this by making use of the fact that multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition. The price can be found by $0.77×2 = $1.54 = f(2).
Similarly, for 3 items, you can add $0.77 three times: $0.77 + 0.77 + 0.77 = f(3), or you can use multiplication: $0.77×3 = $2.31 = f(3).
a) Our table looks like
(x, f(x))
(0, 0)
(1, 0.77)
(2, 1.54)
(3, 2.31)
b) By now, I'm sure you have realized that to find the price of x items, you multiply 0.77 by x.
f(x) = 0.77x
All you have to do is put 36/125. This will get you .288. When rounded to the nearest percent, it is 28%.
Answer:
Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y
3x + 9y = 78
8x + 4y = 58
Solving equation using elimination method
multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3
8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)
3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)
24x + 72 y = 624
24x + 12y = 174
subtracting,
60 y = 450
y = 7.5
3x + 9(7.5) = 78
3x + 67.5 = 78
3x = 78 - 67.5
3x = 10.5
x = 3.5
<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>
