In june 2005, Peter mailed a package from his local post office in Fayetteville North Carolina to a friend in Radford, virginia
for $2.07. the first class rate at the time was $0.23 per ounce. write and solve an equation to determine the weight of the package
1 answer:
The total price that Peter paid for the local parcel = $2.07
The rate per ounce at that time was = $0.23/ounce
Total weight of Peter's package = Total price paid by peter/ rate per ounce
Total weight of Peter's package = $2.07/$0.23 per ounce
We now have to divide 2.07/0.23 = 207/23 (Shifting both numerator and denominator by 2 decimal places) = 9
Total weight of Peter's package = 9 ounces

What I did is to add 0.52
+0.15
then try to find what could equal the same amount with 0.52
I believe that on the shape is length times the width which is 56
It would be 100,300
Hope this helped
13ft you would do 5^2+12^2 with a answer of 169 then you do the square root of that to get 13
