Answer:

110 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Come up with an equation first. The equation I used is

0.5p - 5 = 50

I used p for pounds but it could be any letter

Now solve the equation, you want to get p by itself.

0.5p - 5 = 50

        +5     +5

---------------------

0.5p = 55

Divide 0.5 from both sides

0.5/0.5 cancels out so now it looks like

p = 55/0.5

55/0.5 = 110

x = 110

And you can always check your work by plugging 110 into x and solving.

What is the solution? y = 3x - 5 <br> y = 1\3*+3
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x - 5

y = 1/3x + 3

3x - 5 = 1/3x + 3....multiply everything by 3 to get rid of the fraction

9x - 15 = x + 9

9x - x = 9 + 15

8x = 24

x = 24/8

x = 3

y = 3x - 5

y = 3(3) - 5

y = 9 - 5

y = 4

solution is : x = 3 and y = 4...or (3,4) <==

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

0.16 gallons of paint are used on each piece of furniture.

The answer lies between the whole numbers 0 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Four gallons of paint are used to paint 20 chairs and 5 small tables.

if each chair and table used the same amount of paint

then

sum the total pieces of furniture

20+5=25 pieces

Find the unit rate

Divide the total gallons of paint used by the total pieces

\frac{4}{25}=0.16\ \frac{gallons}{piece}

therefore

0.16 gallons of paint are used on each piece of furniture.

The answer lies between the whole numbers 0 and 1.
