Answer:
Let P represent the number of pies sold and J represent the number of juices sold.
a)
The first equation for the sum of the sales:
P + J = 79
P = 79 - J
Next, for the sum of the amounts earned:
1.65P + 1.36J = 118.17
Substituting P,
1.65 (79 - J) + 1.36J = 118.17
J = 42
Using this value of J,
P = 79 - 42
P = 37
b)
Mr. Sanchez's class earned: 1.65 x 37 = $61.05
Mr. Kelly's class earned: 1.36 x 42 = $57.12
So Mr. Sanchez's class earned more money.
c) Mr. Sanchez's class earned:
61.05 - 57.12
= $3.93 more than Mr. Kelly's class

Answer:
<h3>2T/9</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
A construction manager needs 12 workers to complete a building project in 54 days, we can write;
12 workers = 54 days
T find the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days, we will write;
x workers = T days
Divide both equations
12/x = 54/T
Cross multiply
12T = 54x
x = 12T/54
x = 2T/9
Hence the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days is 2T/9 workers
Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
9 = - x + 8 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
1 = - x ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
- 1 = x ⇒ x = - 1
2(x+-9)
2(x-9)
Distribute
2x-18 is the simplified expression
Answer:
x = 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1
-7x + 5 + x = -18x + 9 - 1
combine like terms:
-6x + 5 = -18x + 8
add 18x to each side of the equation:
12x + 5 = 8
subtract 5 from each side:
12x = 3
divide both sides by 12:
x = 3/12 = 1/4
