Answer:
Lavania observed 39 fruit flies after 6 days of observation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of fruit flies on the first day of Lavania's study.
After 6 days she had nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study.
Five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study = 5x
Nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study=5x+9
The expression to find the population of fruit flies Lavania observed after 6 days is 5x+9
If she observes 20 fruit flies on the first day of the study, then x=6, then
The right answer is B.
The first step to answering this question is combining all like terms.
A. 2x + 2 + 2x + 3x - 8
The like terms in this expression are the x terms and the constants
So, what you would do is combine all of the x terms and combine all of the constants
(2x + 2x +3x) + (2 - 8)
7x - 6
B. 4 + 7x - 2
In this expression, you would combine all of the constants
7x + (4 - 2)
7x + 2
C. -2 + 5x + 2x - 4
For this expression, you would again, combine all of the x terms and all of the constants.
-2 + 5x + 2x - 4
(5x + 2x) + (-2 - 4)
7x - 6
D. 8x - x - 6
For this expression, you would combine all of the x terms
8x - x - 6
(8x - x) - 6
7x - 6
Now let's look at all of the new answer choices:
A. 7x - 6
B. 7x + 2
C. 7x - 6
D. 7x - 6
The question is asking you to find the one expression that's different. The only different one is B, so that's the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.41<3.40/x<0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the cost of one pound of bananas is greater than $0.41 and less than $0.50. That is,
If the cost of one banana is P, then, the inequality will be
0.41 < P < 0.50
Sarah pays $3.40 for x pounds of bananas. The inequality that represents the range of possible pounds purchased will be achieved by below
3.40/0.41 = 8.29
3.40/0.50 = 6.8
Therefore, the inequality that represents the range of possible pounds purchased is
6 < x < 9 this is the same as 0.41<3.40/x<0.50
