We can create equations to solve this.
2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15
Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.
p + m = 15
Subtract p to both sides:
m = -p + 15
Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.
2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50
Distribute:
2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50
Combine like terms:
p + 22.50 = 29.50
Subtract 22.50 to both sides:
p = 7
Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.
p + m = 15
7 + m = 15
Subtract 7 to both sides:
m = 8
So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.
That's an expression, so the only thing you can do is simplify it, but that already looks simplified.
I believe that the answer may be 1,1,1,2
Answer:
77 feet below sea level.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since y is the time the submarine is ascending, we can plug it in for y and find our answer. We can create an equation where D is the depth and y is time ascending: D = -230 + 17y
Substitute 9 for y:
D = -230 + 17(9)
D = -230 + 153
D = -77
The depth of the submarine after 9 minutes will be 77 feet below sea level. Hope this helps, and Brainly will be highly appreciated.
