Percy buys tomatoes that cost $0.56 per pound. He pays $2.52 for the tomatoes. Part 1 out of 3

Percy estimates he bought 5 pounds of tomatoes. Is Percy's estimate reasonable? Complete the explanation.

Use compatible numbers to estimate how many pounds of tomatoes he can buy.

{Answer choices: 25, 5, 35} tenths divided by {Answer choices: 5, 25, 10} tenths is __. His estimate {Answer choices: is reasonable, is not reasonable}

1) We know that tomatoes cost 56c per the pound, and he estimates that he bought 5 pounds of tomatoes. If we multiply 5 by 0.56 we get 2.8, which means that if he purchased 5 pounds of tomatoes, he would have spent only 20c more than he did, which is pretty close. So yes, his estimate is reasonable

2) Well, i dont hav any clear amount of money he can spend so, just remember, if you have 3 pounds per say, you multiply 3 by 0.56. And then you can find your answer

Hope that this helped to some extent!

b because it contains 40% of the possible results from the random list.  

0,1,2,3 v 4,5,6,7,8,9  

4 integers to 6 integers  

40% success vs 60% fail

step-by-step explanation:

question: match the eqaution with its graph -8x - 5y = 40

answer: 8 x 5 = 40

x= absiss

y= orderly

so you have a proportional graph
