Megan bought 2 1/4 pounds of bananas for 0.80 per pound and 1 1/2 pounds of strawberries for 1.10 per pound how much more did Megan spend on bananas than on strawberries

Megan spent 0.15 pounds more on bananas than strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Cost of bananas = 2 1/4 pounds of bananas for 0.80 per pound

2 1/4 x 0.80 = 1.8 pounds

Cost of strawberry= 1 1/2 pounds of strawberries for 1.10 per pounds

1 1/2 x 1.10  = 1.65.

Step 2  how much  more means the difference between the cost of bananas and strawberry .

 Therefore, we have Cost of bananas - cost of strawberries

1.80 pounds - 1.65 pounds=0.15

Megan spent 0.15 pounds more on bananas than strawberries

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
