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.

Complete the table for the given rule.<br> Rule: y = 6x-4<br> Please help
d1i1m1o1n [39]

y = 6x - 4

Substitute the given x values to solve for y.

x = 1:

y = 6(1) - 4

y = 6 - 4

y = 2

1 = 2

x = 3:

y = 6(3) - 4

y = 18 - 4

y = 14

3 = 14

x = 10:

y = 6(10) - 4

y = 60 - 4

y = 56

10 = 56

x                y

1                 2

3               14

10             56

You play basketball at your school's
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

20 + 2x = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

So you are setting the two expressions equal to each other.

buying a membership card  and paying each time looks like this: 20 + 2x where x is the number of times you go to the gym.  20 dollars base then 2 each time you go.

4 each time you go is just 4x

so just set the two equal to each other.

20 + 2x = 4x

If you solve it you will get x = something, which would be the number of times to make the two equal.

To get on the top players list , don needs to have a minimum average score of 225 after playing four games. His scores on his fi
Black_prince [1.1K]
Average must be 225 or more
4 games so
\frac{score1+score2+score3+score4}{4}  \geq 225
score1=192
score2=214
score3=250
score4=?
so
\frac{192+214+250+?}{4}  \geq 225
\frac{656+?}{4}  \geq 225
times both sides by 4 to clear fraction
656+?≥900
minus 656 from both sides
?≥244

min score is 244
