Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given that for an 8 pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60, we would want to know how much will it be for 11 pounds. First, we should know how much does it cost per pound. So 5.60 divided by 8 is 0.7. So per pound of tomatoes costs $0.7. Now to know how much for 11 pounds, we multiply 0.7 by 11 and we get $7.70. The correct answer therefore would be option C. $7.70. Hope this answer helps.

Anna is saving to buy a new cell phone. Her mother is helping Anna by contributing money each month. What is the ratio between t

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Option D. 3:1, $120

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

Part 1) What is the ratio between the amount of money contributed by Anna and the amount contributed by her mother?

Let

x -----> the amount of money contributed by Anna

y ----> the amount of money contributed by her mother

we know that

Looking at the table

The value of x is equal to $x=\$30+\$60+\$90+\$120=\$300$

The value of y is equal to $y=\$10+\$20+\$30+\$40=\$100$

Find the ratio x/y

substitute the values

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{300}{100}=\frac{3}{1}$

Part 2) What was the total amount saved in April?

we know that

To find out the total amount saved in April, adds Mon's contribution in April plus Anna's contribution in April

so

$(\$30+\$90)=\$120$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Taylor family had cash receipts of $876.16 and their excess of cash receipts above cash payments was $56.14.

The total cash payments for the month will be calculated as:

= $876.16 - $56.14

= $820.02

HELP PLEASE! I will rate 5 stars and give brainliest!!!

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term ( explicit formula ) of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₁₂ = - 95 and a₃₇ = - 270 , then

a₁ + 11d = - 95 → (1)

a₁ + 36d = - 270 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁

25d = - 175 ( divide both sides by 25 )

d = - 7

Substitute d = - 7 into (1) and solve for a₁

a₁ + 11(- 7) = - 95

a₁ - 77 = - 95 ( add 77 to both sides )

a₁ = - 18 , thus

$a_{n}$ = - 18 - 7(n - 1) = - 18 - 7n + 7 = - 7n - 11

$a_{n}$ = - 7n - 11 ← explicit formula

--------------------------------------------------------------

The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term, thus

$a_{n}$ = $a_{n-1}$ - 7 with a₁ = - 18 ← recursive formula
