X = oranges / y = apples

x - 2 = 2y and 0.5x - 0.5y = 4

x - 2 = 2y
   +2        +2
x = 2y + 2

0.5x - 0.5y = 4
2(0.5x - 0.5y = 4)
x - y = 8

Substitute 

(x) - y = 8
(2y + 2) - y = 8
3y + 2 = 8
     - 2       -2
3y = 6
y = 2

Substitute again

x = 2y + 2
x = 2(2) + 2
x = 4 + 2
x = 6

Hope this helps!

Ket [755]

Answer:

2.meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Lenght of ladder = 4 m

θ = 30°

To obtain h;

Using Pythagoras rule :

Sinθ = opposite / hypotenus

Hypotenus = 4 ; opposite = h

Sin 30 = h / 4

0.5 = h / 4

h = 0.5 * 4

h = 2 m

Hence, distance between th efoot of ladder and the base of the wall is 2 m

Nola purchased 2.5 pounds of cheese for 10. $50 her mother purchased 3 pounds of the same cheese for $12.60 the cost of the chee
Delvig [45]
The answer is 5.2 because if you do 12.60 - 10 it’s 2.6 so you add another 2.6 because it’s 2.6 for a half a pound so if you add the two half of pounds it will add up to one pound so it will be 2.6 + 2.6= 5.2 so basically 5.20$
