Part A.
Before you can write any sort of expression, you need to define variables. "grapes g" is not a definition, so the exercise seems meaningless as written. It seems the intent is to ...
let g, b, p represent the numbers of pounds of grapes, bananas, and pears, respectively.
Then, the total cost of some weight of fruit is
2.19g + 0.59b + 1.49p
Part B.
For g=3, b=3, p=2, the expression evaluates to
2.19*3 +0.59*3 +1.49*2 = 11.32
The total cost of 3 pounds of grapes, 3 pounds of bananas, and 2 pounds of pears is ...
$11.32
The answer is a = 3/4 = 0.75
First get rid of the paranthesis,
Then set the denominators equal:
Then remove the denominators and solve:
Eliminate -12a^2 by adding 12a^2 to both sides:
Take the fourth root of them or take the square root twice:
![\sqrt[4]{256 {a}^{4} } = \sqrt[4]{81} \\ 4a = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B256%20%7Ba%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B81%7D%20%20%20%5C%5C%20%204a%20%3D%203)
Divide both sides by 4:
1- one half more than three fourths of a number
2- three fourths minus one half of a number
3- three fourths minus the sum of a number and one half
HOPE THIS HELPS!!
Answer:
9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
- Write down the percent divided by 100 like this:
22.5/100
- Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:
- As we have 1 digit after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10, or, simply shift 1 decimal place to the right. So,
(22.5*10)(100*10)= 225/1000
- Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(225,1000) = 25.
225 ÷ 25/ 1000÷25 = 9/40
