The cost per pound is
... $117.50/(50 pounds) = $2.35/pound
The average cost for a pound of pet food is $2.35.
_____
If the food only comes in 50 lb bags, your cost for one pound of it will be $117.50.
Answer:
$ 22.38
Step-by-step explanation:
If the pre-sale price is $ 55.95
40 % of this would be .4 * 55.95 = $ 22.38
2x - 4y = 32
2x - 8y = 48
2x - 2x - 4x - (-8y) = 32 - 48
4x = -16
x = -16 ÷ 4
x = -4
substitute your value of x into any of the original equations
2 (-4) - 4y = 32
-8 - 4y = 32
-4y = 32 + 8
-4y = 40
y = 40 ÷ -4
y = -10
Answer: The balance in the account after 10 years is $3374.65
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential equation for growth [ compounded continuously] is

, where P= Present value
r= growth rate ( in decimal)
t= time (years)
By considering the given information , we have
p=$2500 r = % =0.03 and t= 10
Substitute all the values in the above equation , we get


[Round to the nearest cent]
Therefore, the balance in the account after 10 years is $3374.65
Given that the triangles are similar.
When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.


Cross multiplying, we get



Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.
So, we get
x = 7.
