At the farm, corn costs $2.50 per pound. How much would 3 1/2 pounds of corn cost? Write your answer in dollars and cents.

Multiply price per pound by total pounds:

2.50 x 3.5 = 8.75

Total cost = $8.75

The cost is $8.75  for 3.5 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is 2.50 per pound

Multiply the number of pounds by the rate

3.5 * 2.50 =8.75

The cost is $8.75  for 3.5 lbs

step-by-step explanation:

in the absence of parentheses, i will have to make some assumptions:   i interpret your (3x+5/y^6)(4y^3/5)​ to mean:

3x + 5     4y^(3/5)       (3x + 5)(4)

* =

    y^6             1               y^(6-3/5)

if this is not what you expected, repost your question using parentheses to indicate whether you meant

4y^3

    or   4y^(3/5)

    5
