4 0

Answer:

Sergio's statement is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one pound of plum = 1.60

Total quantity of plum bought = 1

Weight of each plum = 1/4 pound

If he buys plum of $ 3.80 at the rate of $1.60 per pound, he purchases 2.375 pounds of plum

Weight of one plum = 1/4 pound, thus total number of plum purchased = 9.5

Since 0.5 pound of plum means half plum which is not possible to buy

Hence Sergio's statement is false

Setler [38]

Answer:

The Time taken by Elena and Jade to meet up is 2.5 hours

Explanation:

Given,

Elena moves with a speed of 6mph while Jada walks at a speed of 4 mph

Also, Distance can be calculated by the formula

$Distance = Speed * Time$

To find out the Total speed, i.e., speed of both Elena and Jada as both of them are walking in opposite direction we should add the speed of both the persons, if in same direction we should subtract the values

Here it will be: $6 + 4$ = 10mph

Distance apart is given as 25 miles. Substituting the values,

$Distance = Speed * Time$

25 = $10 * time$

Time = 25/10

Time = 2.5 hour

Hence, It will take 2.5 hours to meet up.
