Liz purchased three trays of tomato plants for $16.47. She also bought ten trays of basil plants. If the ratio of the price per tray of tomato plants to the price per tray of basil plants is 3 to 2, then how much did she spend in total for all the plants? Write and solve a proportion. Please help! Tysm <3

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by creating expressions

t= A tray of tomato plants

3t = $16.47

Solve the equation above

3t/3= 16.47/3

t= 5.49

A tray of tomato plants costs $5.47

Now create the ratios

b= A tray of basil plants

t:b = 3:2

Substitute t

5.49:b = 3:2

Rewrite as fractions

=

Cross multiply

5.49(2) = 3(b)

10.98 = 3b

10.98/3 = 3b/3

3.66 = b

A tray of basil plants costs $3.66

In total she bought 3 trays of tomato plants, which cost $16.47, and 10 trays of basil plants

T0 find out the cost of the 10 basil plants, multiply 3.66 by 10

3.66 × 10 = 36.6

She bought 10 trays of basil plants for $36.60 and 3 trays of tomato plants for $16.47

Add the 2 values together

36.60+16.47 = 53.07

$53.07 is the total

I hope this helps!!!

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the option best identifies the textual evidence that supports this conclusion is c.) when an argument is over, how many weighty reasons does a man recollect which his heat and violence made him utterly forget? in order to recognize textual evidence is to identify the topic sentence where the author states the main idea. textual evidence is what supports the topic sentence or main idea of a passage.
