Answer:

x = 3.6

B. {7.88}

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{6}{x}= \frac{10}{6}$

x · 10 = 6 · 6

10x = 36

10x ÷ 10 = 36 ÷ 10

x = 3.6

$\frac{9}{8} =\frac{x}{7}$

8 · x = 9 · 7

8x = 63

8x ÷ 8 = 63 ÷ 8

$x=7\frac{7}{8}$ or x = 7.875

7.875 rounded to the nearest tenth is 7.88.

Mr. Roseanne will buy 12 1/2 pounds beef for for a cookout. The price for the first 3 pounds of beef is $4.99 per pound. After t

Yuri [45]

Answer:

As per the statement:

Mr. Roseanne will buy $12\frac{1}{2}$ pounds beef for for a cookout.

⇒ Weight of the beef he buy = $\frac{25}{2}$ pounds.

It is given that:

The price for the first 3 pounds of beef is $4.99 per pound.

then;

the price for 3 pounds he will pay= $3 \times 4.99 =\$ 14.97$

After that, the price is $4.49 per pound.

Remaining weight of beef left = $\frac{25}{2} -3 = \frac{19}{2}$ pounds.

then;

the price of $\frac{19}{2}$ pounds he will pay = $\frac{19}{2} \times 4.49= \$42.655$

now, total money he will pay for the $12\frac{1}{2}$ pounds beef = $14.97+42.655 = \$57.625$

Therefore, $57.625 will Mr. Roseanne pay for the beef
