Answer:
Quick Market is the better buy.
...........................
To solve this in your head:
1) You can see that "6 apples for (about) $1.20" is about 20 cents each.
2) For the other apples to be 20 cents each, the price for 8 would have to be about $1.60
3) Because the cost of 8 apples is less than $1.60, then the Quick Market apples are cheaper than the other ones.
Answer 2

 The Quick Market will be the place for better buy than Stop and Save.

Comparison of rates for better buy:    Find the rate of one unit.    Compare the rates to decide the better buy.

Given in the question,

   Total amount paid for 8 apples at The Quick Market = $1.45     Total amount paid for 6 apples at Stop and Save = $1.22

Rate of apples at The Quick Market = [tex]\frac{\text{Total amount paid}}{\text{Number of apples}}[/tex]

                                                            = [tex]\frac{1.45}{8}[/tex]

                                                            = $0.18125

                                                            ≈ $0.18 per apple

Rate of apples at Stop and Save = [tex]\frac{1.22}{6}[/tex]

                                                      = $0.20333

                                                      ≈ $0.20 per apple

      Since, $0.18 is less than $0.22, The Quick Market will be the place for better buy than Stop and Save.

20 ÷ (-4) = -5

20 ÷ (-5) = -4

The length of a rectangle is four times its width.
If the area of the rectangle is 144 ft, find its perimeter.

Answers

Answer:

y = mx + c

since m = 0

c = 9

Answer: 60

suppose: the width of a rectangle is x (x > 0)

⇒ The length of a rectangle is 4x

because  the area of the rectangle is 144 ft

=> 4x.x = 144

⇔ x² = 144/4 = 36

⇒ x = 6

with x = 6 ⇒ The length of a rectangle is 4.6 = 24

the perimeter of the rectangle is (6 + 24).2 = 60
