Good evening
Answer:
<em>a) the cost of one apple is €</em><em>0.9</em>
<em>b) the cost of one pineapple is €</em><em>5.4</em>
<em>c) the cost of two pineapples and six apples is €</em><em>16.2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider P the price of a pineapple
A the price of an apple
A pineapple costs six times as much as an apple means P = 6A
Mum paid €7.20 for one pineapple and two apples means P + 2A = 7.20
then
6A + 2A = 7.20
then
8A = 7.20
then
A = €0.9
Since P = 6A then P = 6×(0.9) = €5.4
the cost of two pineapples and six apples
= 2P + 6A
= 2P + P
= 3P
= 3×(5.4)
= €16.2
This is simply a question about ratios. This ratio means that for every 1 cm on the map, there are 12 km in actuality. You can set this problem up in fractions:
1 cm 12 cm
-------- = ----------
12 km x
To solve for x, we cross-multiply, for the moment ignoring units. Remember, your answer will be in km.
1*x=12*12
x=144
If x=144, then for 12 cm, there are 144 km.
Answer:
So we want to know how to write the inequality for Beth's jogging. The total number of miles Beth plans to jog cant go over 12, and she has already jogged for 3 miles, then she needs to jog for another m miles. This can be written mathematically like: 3 + m < 12. In other words: 3 miles + m miles Beth still plans to jog cant go over 12 miles.
