alright so you need to find the unit rate for both of these bought items.


5.25(5 1/4) pounds is equal to $2.10 if you set it into an equation

5.25x = $2.10

x represents how much is the price for one pound of banana

to find x you divide $2.10 by 5.25

you can either plug that into a calculator (.4 is the answer)

to divide a fraction

2.10 / 1 ÷ 21/4

switch the 21/4


2.10/1 ÷ 4/21

instead of using division to solve this you actually multiply!(don't ask me why)

2.10 × 4 = 8.4

21 × 1 = 21

now divide 8.4 by 21 = $0.4 for each pound of bananas


do the same on the other persons payment

3.25x = 6.5

x = 0.5


now you answer it. which one is cheaper?

10. Multi-Step Mrs. Sullivan calculates that she
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Amount of paint to be bought = 10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of paint needed by Mrs. Sullivan to paint her house = 12 gallons

She is already having paint = 8 quarts

Since, 1 quart = 0.25 gallons

Therefore, 8 quarts = 8 × 0.25

                                 = 2 gallons

So, amount of paint she is already having = 2 gallons

Amount of paint to be bought = 12 - 2

                                                    = 10 gallons

Rewrite as (2^1/2 + 2^1/2)*(18^1/2-2^1/2) = 8

Prove the following statement.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

You can prove this statement as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

An odd integer is a number of the form 2k+1 where k\in \mathbb{Z}. Consider the following cases.

Case 1. If k is even we have: (2k+1)^{2}=(2(2s)+1)^{2}=(4s+1)^{2}=16s^2+8s+1=8(2s^2+s)+1.

If we denote by m=2s^2+2 we have that (2k+1)^{2}=8m+1.

Case 2. if k is odd we have: (2k+1)^{2}=(2(2s+1)+1)^{2}=(4s+3)^{2}=16s^2+24s+9=16s^{2}+24s+8+1=8(2s^{2}+3s+1)+1.

If we denote by m=2s^{2}+24s+1 we have that (2k+1)^{2}=8m+1

This result says that the remainder when we divide the square of any odd integer by 8 is 1.
