Answer:

The number of apples that Ashley picks was 108\ apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> number of apples that Sean picks

y-----> number of apples that Ashley picks

we know that

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{9}

x=\frac{5}{9}y ------> equation A

x+y=168 -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

\frac{5}{9}y+y=168

\frac{14}{9}y=168

y=168*9/14=108\ apples

Answer:

Answer is 65 =, option C

Step-by-step explanation:

angle xoz = 86

This means that 3x + 6x+ 23 = 86.

Because angle xoy and angle yoz = angle xoz

Solving for x yields 7.

Substituting it in the formula for yoz which is 6x + 23 gives off 65.

Hope this helps.
