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}

Gnesinka [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

I would say the area its getting built. imagine wanting to build a house but you can't dig the sewer (if thats the spelling) pipes bc the area you want doesn't have any water or something like that. definitely money. without it, you can't do anything, you can't buy materials or even hire people to help you because you cannot tell me that you can build a house on your own. Another I would say is Labor cause like I said, if you ain't got nobody to help you, you're probably going to take a few years or more. so if you want to build a house in an area where there is a few architects and designers, you're just going to have to suck it up and get what you get.

Trava [24]

Answer:

I invested $ 10,000 at 7% per year, and $ 1,000 at 3% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that I invested $ 11,000 in two accounts paying 3% and 7% annual interest, respectively, if the total interest earned for the year was $ 730, to determine how much was invested at each rate, the following calculation must be performed:

5,000 x 0.07 + 6,000 x 0.03 = 530

8,000 x 0.07 + 3,000 x 0.03 = 650

10,000 x 0.07 + 1,000 x 0.03 = 730

Therefore, I invested $ 10,000 at 7% per year, and $ 1,000 at 3% per year.
