At the local grocer, the prices for oranges are the following: 2.5 lbs for $6.75 or 3 pounds for $7.25. How much will you save per pound, by buying the least expensive? Round to the nearest cent.
$0.50

$2.50

$0.28

$0.25

$0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the price per pound in both offers. 2.5 lbs for $6.75 end up giving you $2.7 per pound. 3 pounds for $7.25 gives you $2.42 per pound, so this offer would be the better and cheaper one. To find the difference per pound,you simply subtract $2.42 from $2.7 for the final difference of $0.28.

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
