This is a system of equations problem.
Blueberry = X, blackberry = Y
Joe:
5x + 10y = 135
James:
x + 9y = 104
Let’s isolate x from James’ equation.
x = 104 - 9y
Now substitute that into the first equation.
5(104 - 9y) + 10y = 135
520 - 45y + 10y = 135
-35y = -385
y = -385/-35. The negatives cancel out, leaving us with $11 for blackberries.
Now we can substitute that value into James’s equation.
x + 9(11) = 104
x = 104 - 99
x = $5
Final answer: Blueberry pies cost $5, blackberry pies cost $11.

Answer:
the first one and the fith one
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line shown is y = 1/3x - 1
Because the slope is rise/run and in this case you rise 1 and run 3. And the y-intercept is -1 because that is where the line crosses the y-axis.
hope this helps :)
Answer:
(since there is no percentage given i will provide two alternate answers one including percentage and one exclusive of percentage)
cost of TV inclusive of tax = $500
we first multiply the tax with total amount
$500 * 5.5
= $500 * 55/10
=$500 * 11/2
= $250 * 11
=$2750
original price of TV = $2750
alternate answer assuming there is a percentage sign with 5.5
the amount of tax on TV is 5.5%
we first multiply the percentage of tax with total amount
$500 * 5.5/100
=$27.5
original price of TV = $500 - $27.5
= $472.5
