Answer 1

$11.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we've been given the cost per pound for each of the ingredients, to find how much Dmitri spent, we have to multiply each of the of the number of pounds of ingredients by its unit cost and then add all of the cost together;

`\begin{gathered} \text{Total cost=}((2)/(3)\ast4.5)+((1)/(2)+2.4)+(1(1)/(4)\ast6) \\ =3+1.2+((5)/(4)\ast6) \\ =4.2+7.5 \\ \therefore\text{Total cost}=11.70 \end{gathered}`
