Three different terms here so you need to convert to one type only. Either fractions, decimal or percentage.
0.3= 30% = 3/10 mysteries
25% = 0.25 = 1/4 travel
7/20 = 35% = 0.35 childrens
Rearrange:
0.3 = 30% = 3/10
0.25 = 25% = 1/4
0.35 = 35% = 7/20
Answer is Children's is the greater at 35%

No idea how to graph this
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

the graph will start at y1 and go down 1 and right 2 for every point.

Step-by-step explanation: since the x is negative you know that the graph is going to be negative so from left to right it will be going from top to bottom. next you look at the 1/2 which just states that every point on that line will will be 1 down and two right from the previous point. now you look at the +1 which just says that the graph will cross the y axis a 1.

Last week, the price of cherries at the corner deli was $4.99 per pound. This week, cherries at the same deli are on sale at a 1
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price las week was $ 4.99 and it got a discount of 15% for this week, this means that the price for this week is 100% of the one prior minus 15%, therefore it is 85% of the last price. We need to calculate the price per pound with this discount as shown below:

\text{this week} = \text{last week}*\frac{95}{100}\\\\\text{this week} = 4.99*0.95 = 4.74 \text{ per pound}\\

Since the price is $4.74 per pound and we want to buy 3.75 pounds, then the total amount we need to pay is:

\text{total amount} = 3.75*4.74 = 17.775

The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.
