Apples cost $1.99 per pound. How much do 314 pounds of apples cost? $ How much do x pounds of apples cost? $ Clare spent $5.17 on apples. How many pounds of apples did Clare buy? pounds

1. $624.86

2. 1.99x

3. 2.6 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply 1.99 by 314 to get 624.86

2. With the equation 1.99x, you can substitute any variable into it and it will hold true.

3. Divide 5.17 by 1.99, the price, and you get 2.597 pounds, which rounds to 2.6

215.92 dollars is the answer

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
