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

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

Point J is located at (2,5)(2,5) and point K is located at (4,19)(4,19).
Anni [7]
We have the coordinates
J (2,5)
K (4,19)

Since we are to find the point that partitions the line segment into 3:2 ratio, we have 5 equal parts of the line segment. So,

Get the horizontal distance:
4 - 2 = 2
Divide by 5
2/5
Multiply by 3
2/5 x 3 = 1.2
Add this to the x coordinate of J
2 + 1.2 = 2.2

Get the vertical distance:
19 - 5 = 14
Divide by 5
14/5
Multiply by 3
14/5 x 3 = 8.4
Add this to the y coordinate of J
5 + 8.4 = 13.4

The coordinates of the point is
(2.2,13.4)

Find the values of p and q such that 4x^2+12x=4(x+p)^2-q
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

p = 1.5 and q = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the right side then compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides, that is

4(x + p)² - q ← expand (x + p)² using FOIL

= 4(x² + 2px + p²) - q ← distribute parenthesis

= 4x² + 8px + 4p² - q

Comparing coefficients of like terms on both sides

8p = 12 ( coefficients of x- terms ) ← divide both sides by 8

p = 1.5

4p² - q = 0 ( constant terms ), that is

4(1.5)² - q = 0

9 - q = 0 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

- q = - 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

q = 9

Solve similar triangles (advanced)<br> Solve for x<br> x=?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

AD/AB = DE/BC (Similarity Theorem)

AD = 6 + 4 = 10

AB = 6

DE = 2

BC = x

Plug in the values

10/6 = 2/x

Cross multiply

10*x = 2*6

10x = 12

Divide both sides by 10

x = 12/10

x = 1.2
