Answer:

8 apples for $10.24 as your getting more apples for almost the same price.

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.25 divided by 5 is $1.25 so that would be $1.25 per apple

$10.24 divided by 8 is $1.28 so that would be $1.28 per apple

Answer:

5 apples for 6.25 dollars is the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

I set both deals as a ratio and cross multiplied them with X/1 to get how much each apple would cost per one apple. The first deal ended up being cheaper with 1.25 dollars per apple. The more expensive deal was 1.28 dollars per apple. Therefore 5 apples for 6.25 dollars is the better deal.

Find the area of the circle. Round to the nearest whole number

GuDViN [60]

Hello!

$\mathcal{GIVEN:}$

Diameter of the circle = 12 cm

$\mathcal{TO\:FIND:}$

Area of the Circle

$\mathcal{SOLUTION:}$

A=πr²

Hey! We have the diameter, not the radius.

Don't panic. In order to find the radius, we should divide the diameter by 2.

So, the radius is 6.

Plug it into the formula:

A=π(6)²

A=π(36)

A≈113 cm

Hope it helps!

Good luck and enjoy your day!
