Answer:

1 pear = $0.75; 1 orange = $0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)               3P +  4O = 4.85

(2)              3P + 10O = 8.75                 Eqn (2) - Eqn (1)

3P + 10O – 3P – 4O = 8.75 – 4.85     Combine like terms

                           6O = 3.90                 Divide each side by 6

                             O = $0.65              Substitute into Eqn (1)

           3P + 4×0.65 = 4.85

               3P + 2.60 = 4.85                 Subtract 2.60 from each side

                           3P = 2.25                Divide each side by 3

                            P = $0.75

Oranges cost $0.65 each and pears are $0.75 each

A brand new filled jar of salsa is 11 cm tall and a has a radius of 6 cm. Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar
Sonbull [250]

Before we begin please note that a jar is always cylindrical in shape if not mentioned otherwise. Thus, we will take a cylindrical jar in this case.

Since Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar is now 6 cm high, we know that Kelly ate the amount of Salsa whose volume is missing from the jar.

To find the missing volume on the Salsa jar all that we need to do is to find the height of the missing volume which is given to us as h= 6 cm. We already know that the radius of the jar, r=6 cm. Thus, the amount of Salsa Kelly has eaten is:

V=\pi(6)^2\times 6\approx678.6\approx679 cm^3

Thus, the third option is the correct answer
