From the given data, the cost per pound of apple, CP=$1.89≈$2.
We have to estimate the cost of n=3.2≈3 pounds(lb) of apple.
The cost of n=3 lb of apple can be calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=CP\times n \\ =2\times3\text{ lb} \\ =6 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the cost of 3. pounds of apples is about $6.048.
