Given

Distance between city A and city B is 540 miles

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

32 - 2.5x - 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

He bought 2.5 pounds weight of apples for x dollars a pound. Thus, cost is 2.5x.

He bought 2 bags of lettuce for y dollars each. Thus, cost is 2y

Total bill cost = 2.5x + 2y

We are told he has a coupon for $2 off his bill.

This means the amount he will pay will now be;

2.5x + 2y - 2

Gabriel has $30 to pay for the groceries.

Thus, his change will be;

30 - (2.5x + 2y - 2)

This gives;

32 - 2.5x - 2y

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

the person earned one summer = $3,600

We have to show the amount in fraction that Paula spent during the following semester,

they spent for tuition = $2,500 =  × 100

=0.6944 × 100

=  69.44%  

they spent for rent = $650 =   × 100

= 0.1806 × 100

= 18.06%

they spent for food = $430 =   × 100

=0.1194 × 100

= 11.94%

they Spent in tuition, rent and food = 2,500 + 650 + 430 = $3580

Now they spent in miscellaneous expenses = 3600 - 3580 = $20.00   × 100
