Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of apples, y represent the cost of strawberries and z represent the cost of oranges.
The money used to buy 2 apples, 3 boxes of strawberry, and 4 oranges is represented as:
2x + 3y + 4z = 15.3 (1)
The money used to buy 4 apples, 1 boxes of strawberry, and 2 oranges is represented as:
4x + y + 2z = 10.9 (2)
The money used to buy 5 apples, 2 boxes of strawberry, and 1 oranges is represented as:
5x + 2y + z = 13.7 (3)
Solving equation 1, 2 and 3 simultaneously gives:
x = $1.5, y = $2.5 and y = $1.2
The cost of orange is $1.5, cost of strawberry = $2.5 and cost of orange = $1.2
-2x+1/2y=18
xint is where y=0
-2x+0=18
-2x=18
divde by -2
x=-9
xint isi (-9,0)
The diagonals are congruent.
hope this helped.
Choice a:
The order pair given is (<span>1, 3)
y-4x = 3-4(1) = -1
-1 is greater than -6
Therefore, this choice is wrong
Choice b:
</span>The order pair given is (-2, -14)
y-4x = -14-4(-2) = -6
-6 is equal -6
Therefore, this choice is correct
Choice c:
The order pair given is (-1, -9)
y-4x = -9-4(-1) = -5
-5 is greater than -6
Therefore, this choice is wrong
Choice d:
The order pair given is (3, 5)
y-4x = 5-4(3) = -7
-7 is less than -6
Therefore, this choice is correct
Choice e:
The order pair given is (0, -5)
y-4x = -5-4(0) = -5
-5 is greater than -6
Therefore, this choice is wrong
It is the multiplying factor for the whole equation if that makes sense.
