Answer:
The answer to your question is cost of 0.6 pound of candy $4.17
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
1 pound of candy = $6.95
only 0.6 pounds
final cost = ?
Process
1.- Use proportions to find the cost of 0.6 pounds of candy
1 pound of candy -------------- $6.95
0.6 pound of candy ---------- x
2.- Use cross multiplication
x = (0.6 x 6.95) / 1
3.- Simplification and result
x = $ 4.17
We use a system of equations to solve this. Since tri city sells 4 times it becomes 4x and solly company is x. Then we do 4x-x=96. 3x=96. x=32. We are not finished yet. We still have to multiply x by 4. x=128. Tri City sold 128 dishwashers.
Option A would be your answer. We know 71 is the product. We also know that Sues age is one year less than half her mothers age. -1 comes from the problem saying one year less. We can already eliminate the other 3 options at this point.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can assume each shelve takes the same amount of wood to make. So if 30 inches are needed for one shelve, 30*6 inches of wood will be needed for 6 shelves. 30*6=180, so 180 inches of wood is needed to make 6 shelves. However, the question asks for the final answer to be in feet. There are 12 inches in a foot so we can divide by 12 to find the amount of feet needed to make 6 shelves. 180/12=15. Therefore, 15 feet are needed to make 6 shelves.
