Question

WILL GIVE BRAINIEST IF CORRECT

Answer 1

Jeff bought 1.5 pounds of pork.

1 pound of pork = 3.64
0.5 pounds of pork = 1.82 (divided 3.64 by 2 to find 0.5 pounds of pork)

3.64 + 1.82 = 5.46

Jeff also bought 2.5 pounds each of beer and chicken.

1 pound of beef = 5.99
2 pounds of beef = 11.98
0.5 pounds of beef = 2.995 (5.99 divided by 2)

11.98 + 2.995 = 14.975

1 pound of chicken = 4.79
2 pounds of chicken = 9.58
0.5 pounds of chicken = 2.395

9.58 + 2.395 = 11.975

Add up the total amount of the 1.5 pounds of pork and 2.5 pounds each of beef and chicken.

5.46 + 14.975 + 11.975 = $32.41

Answer 2

Answer:

$32.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of pork bought by Jeff = 1.5 pounds

Amount of beef bought by Jeff = 2.5 pounds

Amount of chicken bought by Jeff = 2.5 pounds

Cost of number of pounds of each type of meat bought by Jeff can be calculated by multiplying the number of pounds by the cost of each type per pound.

Cost of pork for 1.5 pounds = 1.5  3.64 = $5.46

Cost of beef for 2.5 pounds = 2.5  5.99 = $14.975

Cost of chicken for 2.5 pounds = 2.5  4.79 = $11.975

Total cost = Cost of pork + Cost of beef + Cost of chicken = 5.46 + 14.975 + 11.975 = $32.41
