10 pounds of walnuts cost $50. How much does 1 pound of walnuts cost?

Which equation represents the relationship?

Question 6 options:

P (pounds) D (Dollars) = 5

P (Pounds) = 5D (Dollars)

D (Dollars) = 5P (Pounds)

1 pound will cost $5

The equation is P (Pounds) = 5D (Dollars)

Explanation:

Since 10 pounds of walnuts = $50.

Let 1 pound of walnuts = Z

then, cross multiply

So, Z = ($50 X 1 pound) / 10 pounds

Z = 50/10

Z = $5

Thus, 1 pound of walnuts will cost 5 Dollars. The equation for the relationship of pound and dollars is P (Pounds) = 5D (Dollars)

10 pound = $50

1 pound = $50/10

1 pound = $5
