Question

Melanie 5 pounds of salmon for $33
At this rate, how much will 18 pounds cost? Round your answer to the nearest hundredths.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange this algebraically to solve for

Price per pound

. To do this, divide both sides of the equation by

Number of pounds

Price per pound

by itself.

Total cost = number of pound

=Total of cost /Number of pounds

=33/5

=$6.6
