Answer:
Cost of 18 pounds candy = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = $12.5
Cost of 1 pound of candies = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
6 pounds of butterscotch candies cost $7.50
⇔ 1 pound of same candy costs
$1.25
Now, we need to find the cost of 18 pounds of candy:
as, the cost of 6 pounds candy = $7.50
⇔ Cost of 6 x 3 = 18 pounds candy = $7.50 x 3 = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = 10 x (Cost of 1 pound candy)
= 10 x ($1.25) = $12.5
The unit rate for butterscotch candies = Cost of 1 pound of candies
= $1.25
Turn both fractions into mixed fractions resulting in 75/2 and 5/2. Then turn them into decimals. 75/2= 37.5 and 5/2= 2.5. Then divide each other 37.5 / 2.5= 15. 15 is your answer. Hope it helped :)
Answer: you can rent the kayak for 5.3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of money that you have to spend at the beach is 50.
A kayak cost 5 per hour to rent. This means that if you rent the Kayak for X hours, the amount that you will spend would be 5×x = 5x. I buy lunch for 8.50. I want to save 15 for food later. This means that total amount of money spent is the sum of money spent in renting the kayak and buying of lunch.
Total amount spent = 5x + 8.50
Total amount spent + Total amount that you want to save = Total amount of money that you have to spend at the beach. Therefore
5x + 8.50 + 15 = 50 - 15 - 8.5 = 26.5
x = 26.5/5 = 5.3
Answer:
see attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
The directions tell you what you need to know. It is a matter of adding up the values shown and finding the missing number to make the total be -20. Of course, it works best to start with a row, column, or diagonal that has 4 numbers already.Then, you're only finding the 5th number.
You can start with either diagonal, column 1 or 4, and row 4 or 5. Filling the missing numbers in those spots (red) will let you find the remaining missing numbers (green, then blue).
The square at row 2, column 2 can be filled on the first round using the down-right diagonal. I have shown it as filled on the second round after row 5 column 2 is filled.
Using a spreadsheet can make this easier, because you can write formulas for the sums in each row, column, and diagonal. Then you're just making those sums be -20.
___
For example, consider the up-right diagonal. The sum of the given values, -6, 0, -4, -2, is -12. Then the spot at row 1, column 5 must be filled with -8 to make the sum be -20.
