Answer:

$11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

5 bags = $18.75

To find the amount for three bags, we need to find the price for <em>each </em>bag.

Divide 18.75 by 5.

18.75/5 = 3.75

So each bag is 3.75, and since we need to know the price for 3 bags, we need to multiply 3.75 by 3, which is 11.25.

What’s the answer for this…<br><br><br> Solve for p<br><br> 2p + 3 &gt; 2 (p – 3)
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

2p+3>2(p−3)

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by p−3.

2p+3>2p−6

Subtract 2p from both sides.

2p+3−2p>−6

Combine 2p and −2p to get 0.

-3>6

This is true for any p.

p∈R

A meteorologist reports that the ratio of snowfall in January to total snowfall during the average winter is 2 to 5. If 34 inche
I am Lyosha [343]
First write out the proportions/ratios, and use x for the unknown number.
2:5 = 34:x
Then, you find out how much more 34 is from 2, so divide 34 by 2. 
The answer will be 17, which means, the proportions is 17 times of everything.
So to find out for the x, you multiply 5 by 17 since everything is 17 times more.
5 x 17 = 85
The final ratio will be:
2:5 = 34:85
We can say that 17 times more snow has snowed that year since comparing the January snowfall, it shows that 34 is 17 times more of 2. So to predict the total snowfall, we multiply the 5 by 17, since like I said before, the amount of snowfall is 17 times more than before. Therefore, 5 multiplied by 17 equals to 85. The predicted total snowfall for the entire year will be 85 inches.

The length of a side of an equilateral triangle is x-4.5.First express it's perimeter as a sum. Next express its perimeter as a
LiRa [457]
The sides of an equilateral triangle are same. So if one of the sides is (x-4.5), all the sides are (x-4.5). 
Let the sides are a=(x-4.5), b=(x-4.5), c=(x-4.5)

1. Perimeter(as sum) = a+b+c
                                    =  (x-4.5)+(x-4.5)+(x-4.5)
                                    = x+x+x-4.5-4.5-4.5
                                    = 3x - 13.5
2. Perimeter (as product) = 3×a    
                                     = 3×(x-4.5)
                                     = 3×x - 3×4.5
                                     = 3x - 13.5
(you can write 3×b or 3×c also as a=b=c.)

<em>Both perimeter as sum and perimeter as product are same as adding a number three times is the same as multiplying it by 3.</em>
