Answer:

$14.43¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given; 1\frac{2}{5} pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and 2\frac{1}{4} pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.

Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert 1\frac{2}{5} to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Avocados</u>

\frac{4.2}{1}=\frac{x}{1.4}

Switch sides

\frac{x}{1.4}=\frac{4.2}{1}

Apply rule: \frac{a}{1}=a

\frac{x}{1.4}=4.2

Multiply both sides by 1.4

\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=4.2\cdot \:1.4

Simplify

x=5.88

So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢

Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert 2\frac{1}{4} to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Asparagus</u>

\frac{3.8}{1}=\frac{x}{2.25}

Switch sides

\frac{x}{2.25}=\frac{3.8}{1}

Apply rule : \frac{a}{1}=a

\frac{x}{2.25}=3.8

Multiply both sides by 2.25

\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=3.8\cdot \:2.25

Simplify

x=8.55

So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢

<u>Total cost</u>

Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:

$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =

5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43

Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢

Round 3424 to the thousands place
Masja [62]
To solve this...

Look at the number and determine how far it is from 3,000 and 4,000

Since 424 is closer to 0

And not 500... (which rounds up)

Your answer is going to be 3,000

Hope this was helpful.

Explain how you can use a number line to show that 3/6 and 1/2 are equivalent fractions?
muminat
Make a number line.. Then put 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, 4/6, 5/6, and 6/6 =1

<-------0-------1/6-------2/6-------3/6-------4/6-------5/6-------1------->

Then since 1/2 is half a whole thing put 1/2 ontop of the 3/6 like...
                                                1/2
<-------0-------1/6-------2/6-------3/6-------4/6-------5/6-------1------->

Hope this helps you! :D

Geometry question;please help!

The conditional relative frequencies based on the row totals shown below:

<h3>What relative frequencies?</h3>

A relative frequency indicates how often a specific kind of event occurs within the total number of observations.

Given table:

                    YES           NO          Total

students       15              18                 33

Teachers      28              14                42

Total             43               32             75

To obtain the relative frequency table for the above data, we divide each cell of the table by 75 (the overall total).

Therefore, the relative frequency table is given below:

                  YES           NO          Total

students       0.2              0.24           0.44

Teachers    0.374            0.186          0.56

Total            0.574        0.426                 1
