Answer:

$0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each pounds of banana = $0.80

Number of pounds of banana = 2 1/4 pounds

Total cost of banana = $0.80 × 2 1/4 pounds

= 0.80 × 9/4

= 0.80 × 2.25

= 1.8

Total cost of banana = $1.8

Cost of each pounds of strawberry = $1.10

Number of pounds of strawberry = 1 1/2 pounds

Total cost of strawberry = $1.10 × 1 1/2 pounds

= 1.10 × 3/2

= 1.10 × 1.5

= 1.65

Total cost of strawberry = $1.65

How much more did Megan spend on bananas than on strawberries?

Total cost of banana - Total cost of strawberry

= $1.8 - $1.65

= $0.15

Total cost of banana - Total cost of strawberry

= $1.8 - $1.65

= $0.15

A hot air balloon descends at a rate of 320 feet per minute for 3 minutes. Use integers to calculate and
Amanda [17]
Given:
descends at a rate of 320 feet per minute for 3 minutes.

320 feet per minute * 3 minutes = 960 feet

Total change in altitude is 960 feet. Since it is descending, I believe it would be a negative 960 feet.

I will mark you as brainliest if you're answer is correct​
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

perimeter = 28.13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the length of a line drawn from A to C.

sin 85 = b/8, b = 7.97

cos 85 = c/8, c = 0.697

AC² =7.97² + (6 + 0.697)² = 63.52 + 44.85 = 108.37

AC = 10.41

Now you have a right triangle ADC with a known hypotenuse and  one leg.

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

DC² = 10.41² - 5²

DC² = 108.37 - 25 = 83.37

DC = 9.13 cm

perimeter = 5 + 6 + 8 + 9.13 = 28.13 cm

The measure of angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is: A 18.5 B 19.5 C 20.5
Andrew [12]

Answer:

B


Step-by-step explanation:

<u>This is a right triangle as shown by the right angle.</u>

  • The side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse, which is 9.
  • The side opposite angle A is 3.

So we have the opposite of A and the hypotenuse.

The trigonometric ratio that relates opposite side to hypotenuse is SINE.

sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Since, we need angle A, \theta is A, opposite side is 3, and hypotenuse is 9, we substitute:

sinA=\frac{3}{9}\\sinA=\frac{1}{3}

<em>To solve for the angle, we use our calculator and find the inverse sin of \frac{1}{3} :</em>

A=sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{3})\\A=19.47

<em>Rounding to nearest tenth of a degree:</em>

A=19.5

B is the right choice.

A dress listed from $119 is discounted 25%. What is the sale price of the dress including a 7 1/2 state sales tax?
Daniel [21]
If it is discounted 25%, then u r actually paying 75%

0.75(119) = 89.25 (without tax)

sales tax = 7 1/2% = 7.5% = 0.075
89.25(1.075) = $ 95.94 <===
