Answer:

$17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackie went to the store and bought 2 1/4 pounds of apples at $5 per pound

1 pounds = $5

2 1/4 pounds = x

x = 2 1/4 × $5

x = 9/4 × $5

x = $45/4

x = $11.25

9 pounds of pears at $2.35 per pound.

1 pound = $2.35

9 pounds = x

x = 9 × $2.35

x = $21.15

Total amount that she spent =

$11.25 + $21.15

= $32.40

If she paid with a $50 bill, how much change did she receive?

The change she received =

$50 - $32.40

= $17.60

neonofarm [45]

Answer: Length = 70 feet

Concept:

Here, we need to know how to find the perimeter of a rectangle.

Perimeter (rectangle) = 2 (l + w)

l = length

w = width

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

l = l

w = 51 feet

P = 242 feet

<u>Given expression</u>

P = 2 (l + w)

<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>

242 = 2 (l + 51)

<u>Divide 2 on both sides</u>

242 / 2 = 2 (l + 51) / 2

121 = l + 51

<u>Subtract 51 on both sides</u>

121 - 51 = l + 51 - 51

\boxed{l=70}

Hope this helps!! :)
