Answer: 4 x 3 = 12 so 12 cups of cherries and 12 x 225 = 2700 grams and around 454 grams are in each pound that mean 5.95.9525 pounds of cherries
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a right triangle (attachment below):
Length of the vertical line = 6 units
Length of horizontal line = 8 units
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 8^2 = 100
Square root of 100 = 10
The distance between the two points is 10 units.
So you have to solve for "donation" - so let's call that X. And the things we know are what the grandfather donated, as a function - meaning based upon - Theo's donation. We'll call that Y.
So Y is equal to 1/2 of $4 plus Theo's donation...... 0.5*(x+4).
So... 4.25 = 0.5(X+4), solving for X
4.25=0.5x + 2
-2 -2
2.25=0.5x - divide each side by 0.5 to get x alone.
x = 4.50
Plugging back in:
(4.50 + 4.00)*0.5 = 4.25!
Answer:
2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
First subtract 100-15 to get 85. If 15% is taken off, you would only pay 85% of the original cost.
146.54*.85=124.559
