P = w * .6
Explanation: First, we must determine the price per pound of watermelon. To do this, we take the cost of the watermelons, and divide it by the number of pounds. 4.38 / 7.3, which is .6. This tells us each pound costs 60 cents, or $.6. We’re trying to say “The total price of watermelon would be the amount of watermelon bought times .6.” Plug in the variables you’re given, and you get p = w * 6.
Ok, here we go:
5 cars total.
1. Rachel - first car in line, yellow, SUV
2. blue car (Rachel is in front of the blue car), convertible, Anton
3. minivan - third car in line, Diego
4. white car, sedan, Ingrid
5. green car, immediately behind white car, Yuna, pickup
We know that Rachel is first, a blue car is second and the minivan is third. We know that 3, 4 cannot be a convertible since one is a minivan and the other is a sedan. We also know that a yellow car is in front of the convertible.
Based off of that we know that car 5 cannot be a convertible since 4 is white and not yellow. So 1 or 2 is the convertible and SUV. But we know that Rachel is in front of a blue car and the yellow car is in front of a convertible so that makes car #2 the blue convertible and car #1 the yellow SUV.
Fill in what you do know and start to eliminate the outliers. Hope that helps.
34
because, 34 = 14 + (10 x 2)
and 34 = 24 + (10 x 1)
6.14, and 9.21 are two decimals equivalent.
