Nicole bought six pounds of apples at $1.50 per pound. The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly. Which expression can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples? A)[(6 × 1.50) – 2] ÷ 2
B) 6 × 1.50 – 2 ÷ 2
C) 6 × [1.50 – (2 ÷ 2)]
D) 6 × 1.50 – (2 ÷ 2)

(A)  [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost of 6 pounds of apples:

1 pound = $1.50

6 pounds = 6 x 1.5

Price after discount:

Discount = $2

Price after discount = (6 x 1.5) - 2

The cost is shared with her friend:

One person = [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

(A)  [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

x^6

step-by-step explanation:

this is correct because:

x-6=0

0*x=0

so

x^6

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
