\frac{ (\frac{2}{x} -1)}{ (\frac{1}{x} -1)}= \frac{( \frac{2-x}{x})}{( \frac{1-x}{x})} = \frac{2-x}{1-x}.  Now the answers on your paper do not have this choice, but if you think about it, (2-x)=-1(x-2) and (1-x)=-1(x-1).  This means that when you have (2-x)/(1-x), this also equals to (x-2)/(x-1), since the -1's cancel out.  So, the answer is D.

I hope this was helpful!

A grocery store bought some mangoes at a rate of 5 for a dollar. They were separated into two stacks, one of which was sold at a
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The ratio of the number of mangoes in the $3 stack to those in the $6 stack is 1 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of mangoes bought by the grocery store be n. Also let the number of mango sold for $3 in one stack be x and the number of mango sold for $6 in the second stack be y.

Therefore:

x + y = z                                  (1)

Also, the mangoes was sold at break even price, that is the cost of the mango and the price it was sold for was the same. Therefore:

Cost of buying = Price it was sold for

The cost of the mango = 5z and the price it was sold for = 3x + 6y

3x + 6y = 5z                            (2)

Substituting z = x + y in equation 1

3x + 6y = 5(x + y)

3x + 6y = 5x + 5y

6y - 5y = 5x - 3x

y = 2x

x / y = 1/ 2 = 1 : 2

The ratio of the number of mangoes in the $3 stack to those in the $6 stack is 1 : 2

The equation for line j can be written as y = x + 7. Parallel to line j is line k, which passes
igomit [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines have the same gradient..

y=x+7 has a gradient of 1.

If line J which is parallel to k has a gradient of 1 then they are the same.

gradient (m) =<u>∆</u><u>y</u>

∆x

=<u>y- </u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u> </u> = 1

x - - 3

= <u>y </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>1</u>

x+3

y+1=x+3

y=x +3 +1

y = x + 4(equation for k)
