Pedro bought lb of red sand and lb of brown sand to refill his sand box. Both types of sand cost $4.60 a pound. How much did Pedro spend on the sand? A. $29.85 B. $31.05 C. $33.05 D. $33.75

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: If we know that Pedro bought 1 $(1)/(4)$ pounds of red sand, and 5 $(1)/(2)$ pounds of brown sand, and they both cost $4.60, then we just have to add the individual amounts of sand, since they cost the same.

$1 (1)/(4) + 5 (1)/(2) = 6 (3)/(4)$

So Pedro bought $6 (3)/(4)$ lbs of sand overall. Now, we just need to multiply the cost per pound by the total amount of sand he bought.

$6 (3)/(4) * 4.6 = 31.05$

Pedro spent $31.05 on sand, which is answer choice B.
Hope that helped =)

Answer 2

Answer: b. $31.05
5.5 + 1.25 = 6.75
6.75 * $4.60 = $31.05

The number 6 is halfway between 2.8 and...?
the number 6 is halfway between -12 and...?

Answers

if 6 is halfway between 2.8 and x, then the distance from 2.8 to 6 is 1/2 the distance from 2.8 to something
find the distance

6-2.8=3.2
1/2 distance=3.2
multiply by 2 to find whole distance
3.2 times 2=6.4
add
2.8+whole distance=2.8+6.4=9.2

6 is halfway between 2.8 and 9.2

6 is halfwa between -12 and something
find distance
6-(-12)=6+12=18
1/2 distance=18
times 2
18*2=36
add
-12+36=24

6 is halfway between -12 and 24

blanks are
6 is halfway betwen 2.8 and 9.2
6 is halfway betwen -12 and 24

Katie makes 70% of her shots from the free-throw line. Can you determine how many consecutive free-throws she must make in order to increase her percentage to 75%? Explain

Answers

To make 70% she has completed 7 out 10 shots. For her to get 75% she would need 3 out of 4 shots each time

7 out of 10, if the next shot was successful that would be 8 out of 11 and the next shot would be 9 out of 12

9 out of 12 = 9/12 = 3/4 = 75% so the answer is two successful shots.

Answer:

2 consecutive shots
