Answer:
a)
$2.79 per pound.
$0.93 per apple.
b)
Unit price per pound is typically used because weight and size of every apple is not same.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 pound bag of organic apples = $13.95
1 pound bag of organic apples = $13.95/5
= $2.79
The unit price of apples that cost $13.95 for 5 pounds is $12.79 per pound.
<em>As a general rule, 1 pound of apples is equal to: 4 small apples. 3 medium apples. 2 large apples. So, here we assume that apples are of medium size.</em>
3 apples cost = $2.79
<em>The unit price means 'what is the cost of 1 apple'</em>
1 apple cost =$2.79/3
=$0.93
The unit price of apples that cost $2.79 for 3apples is $0.93 per apple.

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
28 ÷ 16 = 1.75
1.75 × 4 = 7
The way I did it is by finding out how much bigger 28 is than 16 by dividing and then I multiplied the answer (1.75) by 4 to get the bigger answer. The problem is showing you that the triangles are the same just different sizes.
Answer:
0.35 :)
Step-by-step explanation:
12x = 10x + 3
Subtract 10x from both sides
2x = 3
Divide by two on each side
x = 3/2 or 1 1/2 hours
Distance of the trip:
12 * 2 * 3/2 = 36 miles
How long does the trip take:
3/2 + 3/2 + 3/10 = 3 3/10 hours
