Brad buys two packages of mushrooms. He paid $11.25 for 2/3 lb of Cremini mushrooms and $7.99 for 1/2 lb of Chanterelle mushrooms. Which mushroom cost less per pound? A. Cremini mushrooms cost less by $0.10
B. Chanterelle mushrooms cost less by $0.10
C. Chanterelle mushrooms cost less by $0.90
D. Cremini mushrooms cost less by $0.90

C. Chanterelle mushrooms cost less by $0.90 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. For the Cremini mushrooms, we know it costs $11.25 for 2/3 lb. So, let's divide this amount by 2 to get the amount of money per 1/3 lb of Cremini mushrooms.

11.25 ÷ 2 = 5.63 when rounded to the nearest cent.

Now, let's multiply this by 3 to get the price of 1 lb of Cremini mushrooms.

5.63 x 3 = 16.89

Therefore, 1 pound of Cremini mushroom is $16.89.

2. For the Chanterelle mushrooms, we know that it cost $7.99 for 1/2 lb. So, let's multiply this amount by 2 to get the price per pound.

7.99 x 2 = $15.98

Therefore, 1 pound of Chanterelle mushroom is $15.98.

3. To find the difference between two prices, subtract the price of the smaller quantity (Chanterelle mushroom) from the larger quantity (Cremini mushroom.)

16.89 - 15.98 = $0.91

Even though this answer doesn't match with the exact answer, because we rounded to the nearest cent, we can agree that C. is correct.

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.
