Answer:

Alan spent $7.24 in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/2 pounds of bananas is equal to 2.5 pounds of bananas (decimal)

2.5 (pounds of bananas) x 1.06 (unit cost for 1 pound of bananas) = $2.65

4 1/2 pounds of peaches is equal to 4.5 pounds of peaches (decimal)

4.5 (pounds of peaches) x 1.02 (unit cost for 1 pound of peaches) = $4.59

4.59 + 2.65 = $7.24 spent in total

Hope this helps <3

The pair of values below is from a direct variation. Find the missing number.

NISA [10]

Answer:

The answer is 2.

2 since 6/4=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your relation is a direct variation then the points on your line are of the form y=kx where k is the constant of variation (also called constant of proportionality)

If y=kx then y/x=k.

So all the points in this relation since it is a direct variation will be equal to y-coordinate/x-coordinate.

So we are going to solve this proportion:

$\frac{6}{4}=\farc{3}{x}$

Again I put y/x from each point. They should have same ratio because this is a direct variation.

Cross multiply:

$6(x)=4(3)$

$6x=12$

Divide boht sides by 6:

$x=\frac{12}{6}$

$x=2$
