Let p = weight of papaya and g = weight of grapes.

Then (3/4)g = (3/5)p.  Since the weight of grapes is x + 28, 

(3/4)(x + 28) = (3/5)p.  We must solve for x.  To do this, mult. both sides by (5/3):

(5/3)(3/4)(x+28) = (5/3)(3/5)p

Then p = (15/9)(x+28), or (after reduction), p = (5/3)(x+28).

I don’t know what the answer to this question is , help
ipn [44]

Answer:

(4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

y = x - 4 → (1)

- 4x - 6y = - 16 → (2)

substitute y = x - 4 into (2)

- 4x - 6(x - 4) = - 16

- 4x - 6x + 24 = - 16

- 10x + 24 = - 16 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

- 10x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 4 - 4 = 0

solution is (4, 0)
