Answer:
A. 1.5a - 5, where 'a' is the number of apples used by Martin
B. Martin could not have used 10 apples, because that would mean Omar used none.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' represent the number of apples that Martin used. Since Omar used '5 fewer than half as many as Martin':
0.5a - 5 = the number of apples used by Omar
A. The total of all the apples:
a + 0.5a - 5 = 1.5a - 5
B. If Martin used 10 apples:
a = 10
0.5(10) - 5 = 0, which means Omar would have used no apples to make applesauce
D is correct. Hope this helped.
Just divide the original cost for one pound by 4 for each meat.
4.25 divided by 4. if it makes it any easier, 425 divided by 400 because you just move the decimal over and you will get the same result.
2.85 (or 285) divided by 4 (or 400).
then add the original cost per pound for each and then subtract turkey from beef.
2-5 x 1/2 = 0.2 (Length x Width)
(2c) / (3b)
(2*6) / (3*2) =
12/6 =
2 <===
