Deja has two baskets of berries. one of the baskets has 3 3/8 pounds of berries and the other basket has 2 7/8 pounds of berries. she is going to split the berries evenly among 4 people. witch measure is the best estimate for the number of pounds of berries each person would receive.

a) 1 1/4 pounds
b) 1 5/8 pounds
c) 2 7/8 pounds
d) 3 3/16 pounds

(b) The number of pounds of berries each person would receive is pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of berries in first basket = 3 3/8 pounds

Now,

So, the amount of berries in first basket = 3.375 pounds

The amount of berries in second basket = 2 7/8 pounds

Now,

So, the amount of berries in second basket = 2.875 pounds

Now, the total berries = Berries in ( First + Second)  basket

                                      = 3.375 pounds +  2.875 pounds  

                                    = 6.25 pounds

So, the number of pounds each person would have =

Now,

So, the number of pounds of berries each person would receive is pounds.

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c
