Answer:
The apricots are less expensive per pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 1 pound of almonds = 21.98/2
Cost of 2 pounds of almonds = $21.98
So then you have to do 21.98 - 21.98/2. Which equals $10.99
Cost of 1 pound of dried apricots = 26.25/3
Cost of 3 pounds of dried apricots = $26.25
So then you have to do $26.25 - 26.25/3 which = $17.5 then divide that by 2 which equals $8.75.
To find out how much less expensive you have to find the difference, so to do that you have to do $10.99 - $8.75 = $2.24 per pound less expensive.
Y' = -2x+a
0 = -2(3)+a
6=a
8=-(3)^2 +(3)(6)+b
b=-1
I think the answer is b but my teacher said she doesnt know
