Answer:
The pair (5, 3) means x or the pounds of cabbage is 5 and y or 3 is the dollars
So 5 pounds of cabbage costs $3
Cabbage is $0.60/pound
10,6 means 10 pounds of cabbage costs $6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just divide the $3 by the 5 pounds of cabbage to get $.60 for each cabbage.
The first thing we are going to do for this case is to define the following variable:
x = number of trees.
We then have that the equation that represents the problem is given by:
y = 50 (x-1) + 20
Rewriting:
y = 50x - 50 + 20
y = 50x - 30
Substituting for y = 390 we have:
390 = 50x - 30
We clear x:
x = (390 + 30) / (50)
x = 8.4
nearest whole integer
x = 8
Answer:

Answer: 5,600
Explanation: By multiplying 0.10 (4,000) to find the interest for one year, you get 400. Because she is using this loan for 4 years you multiply that one year interest by 4. 400 times 4 is 1600. Then, you add that 1600 (which is the total interest for 4 years) to the loan, to get an answer of 5,600.
