From the question it self we know that 1 pound of chicken costs $3.75. In order to solve this question we just need to find out how much 1 pound does fit into 2.25 pounds and then multiple the result by $3.75. We can find that out by dividing 2.25 by 1, and we get 2.25. Then we do the following....
2.25 x $3.75 = $8.4375
We got $8.4375 as an answer but we have to remember that when we are talking about money and we have to round to the nearest cent (which is equal to 1 hundredth of a dollar). So now we just have to round to the nearest hundredth, and we get $8.44 as our answer.
Whatever the length and width of the first triangle are take them and multiply by three. Place them in their respective sides of the new rectangle. The answer should be 9.
the slant height would be the hypotenuse of a right triangle. 1/2 the length of the base would be one side of a right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height:
