THERE ARE 3 BAGS OF APPLES WEIGHING A TOTAL OF 22 1/2 POUNDS. TWO OF THE BAGS WEIGH 6 3/8 POUNDS AND 3 1/4 POUNDS. HOW MUCH DOES

Mkey [24]

I wasn't going to click on this one, but the all-caps enthralled me and hypnotized me.

first off, let's change all the mixed fractions to "improper" and proceed from there, keep in mind that if we subtract the two bags' weight from the total, what's leftover is the 3rd bag's weight.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{22\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{22\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{45}{2}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{6\frac{3}{8}}\implies \cfrac{6\cdot 8+3}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{51}{8}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{13}{4}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{sum of the two bags}}{\cfrac{51}{8}+\cfrac{13}{4}}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is 8}\implies \cfrac{(1)51+(2)13}{8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{51+26}{8}\implies \cfrac{77}{8}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{total}{\cfrac{45}{2}}~-~\stackrel{two~bags}{\cfrac{77}{8}}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is again 8}\implies \cfrac{(4)45-(1)77}{8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{180~~-~~77}{8}\implies \cfrac{103}{8}\implies \stackrel{third~bag}{12\frac{7}{8}}$

If a basket of goods and services used to calculate CPI contains 2 pairs of socks at $2 each and 1 pair of shoes at $50, what wi

Svetach [21]

Answer:

B. 55.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1 pair of Shoes for 1st year = $50

2 pair of Sock for 1st year = $2 each = 2 $\times$ 2= $4

$\therefore$ CPI for year 1 = Price of shoes for 1st year + Price of Sock for 1st year= $50 + $4 = $54

Now

1 pair of Shoes for 2nd year = $51

2 pair of Sock for 2nd year = $2.05 each = 2 $\times$ 2.05 =$4.10

$\therefore$ CPI for Year 2 = Price of shoes for 2nd year + Price of Sock for 2nd year= $51 + $4.1 = $55.10

Hence CPI for Year 2 is $55.10
