Answer:
1 pound of avocado costs $1.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is just a simple division problem. We jest need to divide the given values to get the answer. For our problem, to know the price of 1 pound of avocado, we need to divide the $9 by 5 since the problem stated that the price of 5 pounds of avocados is $9.
Given:
5 pounds avocados = $9
Required:
cost of 1 pound of avocado
Solution:
$9 / 5 pounds = $1.8/pound
1 pound avocado = $1.8
Notice from the first line of solution, the unit became $ per pound. This means that we did the right operation since we are looking for the price per pound.
To check if we computed for the correct value, we should multiply $1.8 to 5. If the answer from doing this is $9, then our answer is correct.
Checking:
$1.8 * 5 = $9
Therefore, the cost of 1 pound of avocado is $1.8

Answer:
5.1 and 5.05
Not really much to explain. Still, hope this helped!
P.S. (5.2 is more than 5.03, btw)
Answer:
P = 6x-2
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter, we add the sides
P = 4x-8 + 3-2x + 5x+3
Combine like terms
P = 4x-3x+5x -8+3+3
= 6x -2
Now we know the perimeter
82 = 6x-2
Add 2 to each side
82+2 = 6x-2+2
84 = 6x
Divide each side by 6
84/6 = 6x/6
14=x
Answer: 48
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to write a system of equations:
The difference between two numbers is 29. Difference means one number (y) minus another number (x) equals 29.
y-x =29
If five times the smaller ( 5 times x , x is the smaller number because is the number to subtract) is subtracted from twice the larger, (2y)
The result will be one
2y-5x =1
Now, we have to multiply the first equation by 2, and subtract the second equation to the first one:
2y -2x = 58
-
2y-5x =1
__________
3x =57
Solve for x:
x =57/3 =19
Replacing the value of x on any equation:
y-x =29
y-19 =29
y = 29+19 = 48
48 (y)> 19(x)

Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The whole is equal to the sum of the parts.
DG = DO +GO
20 = (4x +1) + 7
12 = 4x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 8
3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
