Ai Mi went to the store to buy some chicken. The price per pound of the chicken is $3.50 per pound and she has a coupon for $2.50 off the final amount. With the coupon, how much would Ai Mi have to pay to buy 3 pounds of chicken? Also, write an expression for the cost to buy pp pounds of chicken, assuming at least one pound is purchased.

$8 for 3 pounds

cost for p pounds: 3.50p - 2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 3 pounds:

Original cost = Cost per pound x 3

= 3.50 x 3

= 10.50

Coupon = 2.50

Final cost = Original cost - Coupon

= 10.50 - 2.50

= $8

Cost of p pounds:

Original cost = Cost per pound x p

= 3.50 x p

= 3.50p

Coupon = 2.50

Final Cost = Original Cost - Coupon

= 3.50p - 2.50

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
