Answer:
C. $16.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost per pound of salmon be represented by x
The cost per pound of swordfish be represented by y
Melissa buys 2 1/2 pounds of salmon and 1 1/4 pounds of swordfish. She pays a total of $31.25
2.5 × x + 1.25× y = $31.25
2.5x + 1.25y = 31.25
The swordfish costs $0.20 per pound less than the salmon.
y = x - 0.20
Hence, we substitute
2.5x + 1.25y = 31.25
2.5y + 1.25(x - 0.20) = 31.25
2.5y + 1.25x - 0.25 = 31.25
2.5x + 1.25x = 31.25 + 0.25
3.75x = 31.5
x = 31.5/3.75
x = $8.4
The cost per pound of salmon be represented by x = $8.4
y = x - 0.20
y = 8.4 - 0.20
y = $8.2
The cost per pound of swordfish be represented by y = $8.2
The cost of a pound of salmon and sword fish
= $8.4 + $8.2
=$16.60
The answer is 25%. Hope this helped!

Answer:
c) 16,500 m³
d) 277,088 mm³
a) V = LWH
b) V = πr²h
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant volume formulas are ...
- rectangular pyramid: V = 1/3LWH
- cylinder: V = πr²h
- rectangular prism: V = LWH
__
13c. The pyramid formula above tells us the volume is ...
V = 1/3(60 m)(15 m)(55 m) = 16,500 m³
__
13d. The cylinder formula above tells us the volume is ...
V = π(35 mm)²(72 mm) ≈ 277,088 mm³ ≈ 277 mL
__
14a. The shape appears to be a rectangular prism, so its volume is given by the formula ...
V = LWH . . . . . where L, W, H represent the length, width, and height
__
14b. The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula ...
V = πr²h . . . . . where r, h represent the radius and height (length)
-a²-3b³+c²+2b³-c²
= -(3)² - (3×2)³ + (-3)² + (2 × 2)³ - ( -3)²
= 9 - 24 + 9 + 16 - 9
= 1
answer is 1.
