Part A At the market, Meyer buys a bunch of bananas for $0.50 per pound and a frozen pizza for $6. The total for his purchase was $8.50.
Which equation can be used to determine how many pounds p of bananas Meyer bought?
A) 0.5p - 6 = 8.50
OB) 0.5p + 6 = 8.50
O C) 6p - 0.5 = 8.50
OD) 6p + 0.5 = 8.50

B) 0.5p + 6 = 8.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If bananas cost $0.50 per pound, you would have to multiply that by how many pounds Meyer bought, or p. When you found how many bananas Meyer bought, you would have to add the money for the frozen pizza ($6) That will give you a total of $8.50.

5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the value of 0.5p so our equation is:

8.5 - 6 = 2.5

Then we need to find the value of p in that 2.5, so our equation is:

2.5 ÷ 0.5 = 5

So Meyer bought 5 pounds of bananas
