Answer:
[tex]2 \frac{2}{7}[/tex] pounds, D
Step-by-step explanation:
1 pound of apples = 1.75 dollars.
Set the number of pounds of apples as x.
Then, we can write this equation.
1.75x = 4
[tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex]x = 4
Divide both sides by [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{4}{1}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{16}{7}[/tex]
x = [tex]2 \frac{2}{7}[/tex]
Thus, the answer is D, x = [tex]2 \frac{2}{7}[/tex] pounds
