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.

Write an equation in slope intercept form of the line shown (1,-3) (3,1)
OLga [1]

Answer:

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope intercept formula y2 - y1 / x2 -x1...

You get a slope of 2 so y = 2x +b

Then to find b the intercept, you plug in one of the coordinates like so...

1 = 2(3) + b

Then solve to get an intercept of -5.

So the slope-intercept form would be...

y = 2x - 5

<h3>Answer: Choice D) </h3>

Work Shown:

(f+g)(x) = f(x)+g(x)\\\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{x-23}{x^2+9x-36}+\frac{1}{x+12}\\\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{x-23}{(x+12)(x-3)}+\frac{1(x-3)}{(x+12)(x-3)}\\\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{x-23+1(x-3)}{(x+12)(x-3)}\\\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{x-23+x-3}{x^2+9x-36}\\\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{2x-26}{x^2+9x-36}\\\\

We must require that x \ne -12 and x \ne 3 to avoid having 0 in the denominator. This is why choice D is the answer.
