The Scott family is trying to save as much money as possible. One way to cut back on the money they spend is by finding deals while grocery shopping; however, the Scott family needs help determining which stores have the better deals. At Grocery Mart, strawberries cost $2.99 for 2lb., and at Baldwin Hills Market strawberries are $3.99 for 3lb. (lb = pound) What is the unit rate for both stores (cost/lb)? Grocery Mart Unit Rate for Strawberries:1.495___per lb. Baldwin Hills Unit Rate for Strawberries: 1.995 per lb.

step-by-step explanation:

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

the awnser is visionary

its kinda hard to answer this when we dont have all the information that we need.
