1 pound = 16 ounces
16 * 5.5 = 88 ounces per day
88*7 = 616 ounces per week
616 * 2 = 1232 ounces in 2 weeks
D=12
Because if you write down the equation 4x-8=40 and plug in 12. 4 times 12 is 48
. 48-8 equals 40
Answer: Total cost is $1.75
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of postcards bought by Doug's family= 7
Cost of each postcard including tax = $0.25
Total cost is given by

Now, we want to show this in number line :
On the number line put all the number with a difference of 0.25 and run the number line seven times and we get the answer.
Each step is of length 0.25 and there are 7 jumps to reach required answer.
So, after 7 jumps we reach at 1.75 which is the required answer.
Hence total cost is $1.75
