Manuel bought 9 pounds of apples. he has eaten three fourths of a pound so far and has $15 worth of apples left. write and solve an equation to find the cost of the apples per pound to the nearest dollar. how much did the apples cost per pound?

1. So, since Manuel bought 9 pounds and ate 3/4 of 1 pound, he has 8.25 pounds left  (9  - 0.75  = 8.25)

2. Let us call "x" the cost of 1 pound of apples

3. (8.25) * (x) = $15

4. x = $1.81818  rounded to the nearest dollar is $2 / pound

is only a line? i think so

i think the answer is true
