Kayla notices that she can buy snacks and candy in bulk at the grocery store. The snacks she wants to buy cost $1.29 per kilogram. Write a formula that that will help Kayla determine how much she'll have to pay if she buys food in bulk. Let's let t = total price k = number of kilograms of food

OpenStudy (conqueror):

t (in $) = ($1.29/kilograms) ('k' kilograms) t = $1.29k (kilograms/kilograms) . The kilograms 'cancel out" so you are left with t = $1.29k

Do you understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i do not??? can you help?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Uhm, I kind of explained it in there.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 people have triedd explaing it and stilldont get it ;-;

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Her total cost would be however many kilograms she bought, multiplied by the price. Example, if she bought 3 kilograms, it would be t=1.29(3). Her total cost would be $3.87.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Is that better?

OpenStudy (paki):

use.... T= P*K

OpenStudy (anonymous):

T (in $)=(1.29/kilograms T=1.29k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ur just say bulk no numbers nothing to multiply by

OpenStudy (anonymous):

....it said it is wrong and i am cluseless on how to sove these

OpenStudy (paki):

t= 1.29$ * k.....
