Answer:

\$15.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Rand initially starts with 18 pounds of meat. After cutting steaks weighing  pound 15 ounces, 3 and 1/8 pounds, and 4 and 1/2 pounds, he will have:

18-1.9375-3.125-4.5=8.4375 pounds of meat left (there are 16 ounces in a pound).

Since he sells patties that measure 9 ounces, convert 8.4375 pounds to ounces:

8.4375\text{ lbs}\cdot 16\text{ oz/lb}=135\text{ oz}

Because each patty is 9 ounces, he can make \frac{135}{9}=15 patties. He sells 3 of them for $3.12, meaning the price per patty is \frac{\$ 3.12}{3}=\$1.04.

Therefore, he makes 1.04\cdot 15=\boxed{\$15.60}

A 60 inch board is to be cut into three peices so that the second peice is four times as long as the first peice and the third p
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The first piece is 6 inches, the second piece is 24 inches, and the third piece is 30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the second piece is 4 times longer than the first one, it will be represented by 4x.

The third piece is 5 times as long as the first one, so it will be represented by 5x.

Create an equation adding up the 3 x values up to 60:

x + 4x + 5x = 60

Add like terms and solve for x:

10x = 60

x = 6

So, the first piece is 6 inches.

Then, plug in 6 for x to find the lengths of the second and third pieces.

4x

4(6)

= 24

The second piece is 24 inches

5x

5(6)

= 30

The third piece is 30 inches

So, the first piece is 6 inches, the second piece is 24 inches, and the third piece is 30 inches
