Charli bought 2 3/4 pounds of pears for 0.76 per pound and 2 3/4 pounds of grapes for 1.40 per pound. how much money in dollars

MArishka [77]

Answer:

$Total = \$5.94$ ---- in dollars

$Total = 594\ cents$ ---- in cents

5 dollars 94 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pears

$Weight = 2\frac{3}{4}\ lb$

$Amount = \$0.76$ per pound

Grapes

$Weight = 2\frac{3}{4}\ lb$

$Amount = \$1.40$ per pound

Required

Determine the amount paid for the fruit in dollar and cents

First, we need to calculate the amount paid for each fruit.

This is calculated by multiplying the amount per pound by the number of pounds bought.

For Pears:

$Total_{Pears} = 2\frac{3}{4} * \$0.76$

Convert fraction to decimal

$Total_{Pears} = 2.75 * \$0.76$

$Total_{Pears} = \$2.09$

For Grapes

$Total_{Grapes} = 2\frac{3}{4} * \$1.40$

Convert fraction to decimal

$Total_{Grapes} = 2.75 * \$1.40$

$Total_{Grapes} = \$3.85$

Next, we add both amounts together to get the total amount spent in dollars.

$Total = Total_{Pears} + Total_{Grapes}$

$Total = \$2.09 + \$3.85$

$Total = \$5.94$

Multiply by 100 to convert this amount to cents

$Total = 5.94 * 100\ cents$

$Total = 594\ cents$

And it can be represented as dollars and cents as:

5 dollars 94 cents

What is the percent increase between getting a high school scholarship and bachelors degree when high school scholarship is $421

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The percent increase between getting a high school scholarship and bachelor's degree is <u>59.14%</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

High school scholarship is $421.

Bachelor's degree is $670.

Now, to find the percent increase between a high school scholarship and bachelor's degree.

So, we get the amount of increase between a high school scholarship and bachelor's degree.

$670-421=249.$

<em>Thus, the amount of increase = $249</em>.

Now, to get the percent increase between a high school scholarship and bachelor's degree:

$\frac{249}{421}\times 100$

$=\frac{24900}{421}$

$=59.14\%.$

Therefore, the percent increase between getting a high school scholarship and bachelor's degree is 59.14%.

Which value of n makes the following equation true?

grin007 [14]

Answer: d. 512

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember that:

$(\sqrt[3]{x})^3=x$

Then, given the equation:

$\sqrt[3]{n}=8$

You can find the value of "n" that make the equation true, by solving for "n".

So, to solve for "n", you need to raise both side of the equation to power 3. Therefore, you get:

$\sqrt[3]{n}=8$

$(\sqrt[3]{n})^3=(8)^3$

$n=512$

Then, the value of "n" that makes the equation $\sqrt[3]{n}=8$ true is: 512 (You can observe that this matches with the option d).
