$0.09 per ounce Because there are 16 ounces in a pound, 3.4 pounds is 3.4(16) = 54.4 ounces. To find cost per ounce, divide the cost in dollars by the number of ounces

Andrea bought 1 2/5 pounds of avocados at $4.20 per pound and 2 1/

guapka [62]

Answer:

$14.43¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given; $1\frac{2}{5}$ pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and $2\frac{1}{4}$ pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.

Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $1\frac{2}{5}$ to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.

Avocados

$\frac{4.2}{1}=\frac{x}{1.4}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{1.4}=\frac{4.2}{1}$

Apply rule: $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{1.4}=4.2$

Multiply both sides by 1.4

$\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=4.2\cdot \:1.4$

Simplify

$x=5.88$

So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢

Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert $2\frac{1}{4}$ to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.

Asparagus

$\frac{3.8}{1}=\frac{x}{2.25}$

Switch sides

$\frac{x}{2.25}=\frac{3.8}{1}$

Apply rule : $\frac{a}{1}=a$

$\frac{x}{2.25}=3.8$

Multiply both sides by 2.25

$\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=3.8\cdot \:2.25$

Simplify

$x=8.55$

So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢

Total cost

Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:

$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =

5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43

Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢

The circumference (C) of a swimming pool is 47 feet. Which formula can you use to find the radius (r) if you know that C = 2πr ?

vodka [1.7K]

To find the formula to find radius, solve for r using the formula for circumference.

to solve:
1. divide each side by 2 $\pi$
2. you get r = c/2 $\pi$
