Answer:

one pound of apple cost $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount they both spent at the grocery store be y and x be the price of apples per pound.

Since Tara bought 5 pounds of apples, 5x = y (1) and Ashley bought 3 pounds of apples and $5 worth other groceries, 3x + 5 = y (2).

Equating both expressions, 5x = 3x + 5

collecting like terms,

5x - 3x = 5

2x = 5

dividing both sides by 2, we have

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

So one pound of apple cost $2.5

Virty [35]

Answer:

  (c)  Yes, because angle 3 and angle 6 are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 3 and 6 are "alternate interior" angles. When those angles are congruent, as these are, then the lines crossed by the transversal are parallel.

__

We expect angles 5 and 6 to be supplementary because they are a linear pair. That fact says nothing about the relationship of line d to line c.
