M = mangoes
a = apples
8m + 3a = 18               Equation 1
3m + 5a = 14.50          Equation 2
Lets multiply equation 1 by 5 and equation 2 by 3
The new equations are:
45m + 15a = 90
9m   + 15a = 43.5
Subtract them and get:
36m = 46.5
m     = 1.30     Divide both sides by 36
Substitute m into equation 2 (either is fine, but choose the easier one)
3(1.30) + 5a = 14.5
3.9     + 5a  = 14.6        Expand the bracket
5a = 10.6                      Minus both sides by 3.9
a   = 2.12                      Divide both sides by 5
Mangoes cost $1.30
Apples cost $2.12 (more like $2.10)
I feel that my working out is wrong, but that is how you work out the answer.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll use Natasha's location as 0 on a number line. To the left of her, 51/20 would be negative and 25/4 would be positive.
To find how far apart the dogs are, we would need to add the absolute value of each number:
|-51/20| + |25/4| however, this can also be rewritten as:
25/4 - (-51/20)
 
        
             
        
        
        
<u>Answer:</u>
x = 14°   ||       each angle has 108°
<u>explanation:</u>
first we need to find the total interior angle of this shape:
formula: ( n - 2 ) * 180  ..............where n is the number of sides
( 5 -2 ) * 180
540°
if all sides in the shape are equal, they must have same angle of 9x -18
5 ( 9x -18 ) = 540°
9x -18° = 108°
9x = 108° + 18°
9x = 126°
x = 14°
So each angle has: 9x - 18
                                 9(14) - 18
                                 108°
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:19.25
Step-by-step explanation:
300 subtract 146=154 divide by 8=19.25
 
        
             
        
        
        
16 and 20
4x/5+x=36
x=20
4x/5=16
