A store has apples on sale for $15.00 for 6 pounds. If an apple is approximately 5 ounces, how many apples can you buy for $60.00? Complete the explanation. The cost per pound of the apples on sale is $15.00
.
You can buy __ pounds of apples for $60.00.
Since 1 pound = 16 ounces, so there are about __ apples in each pound.
You can buy approximately __apples for $60.00.

24 pounds of apples for $60

about 3 apples per pound

about 72 apples for $60

Step-by-step explanation:

$15 times 4 = $60, therefore 6 pounds times 4 = 24 pounds

5 out of 16 ounces equals about 3 apples per pound

24 pounds, with 3 apples in each pound, equals 72

step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
