Pedro has 3 pounds and 10 ounces of fruit salad
2 3/4 + 1 5/8 + 1 5/8 =
2 + 1 + 1 = 4 (add the whole numbers)
3/4 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 6/8 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 16/8 = 2 (add the fractions)
4 + 2 = 6 total lbs
5.40 for 6 lbs = 5.40/6 = 0.90 (so the apples cost 90 cents per lb)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The number = x
Three more than the number = x + 3
twice the number = 2x
which means:
2x + 3 < -13
2x + 3 -3 < -13 -3 (subtract 3 from both sides)
2x < -16
2x/2 < -16/2 (divide 2 from both sides)
x < -8
X^2 = 81...take the square root of both sides, eliminating the ^2
x = (+-) sqrt 81
x = (+-) 9
answers are : -9 and 9
