Answer:

x + y = 15

0.5x + 0.65y = 9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents the number of oranges

y represents the number of apples

Aisha bought 15 pieces of fruit:  oranges + apples = 15 or x + y = 15

Oranges cost $0.50 and apples cost $0.65.  Aisha spent $9.00 on the fruit.

0.5x (total cost for oranges) + 0.65y (total cost for apples) = 9.00 (total cost for fruit) or 0.5x + 0.65y = 9.00

I might be wrong but i think its

Write the equation of the line that passes through 7, 0 and is parallel to y = -3x + 4​
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

y = - 3x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (7, 0 ) into the partial equation

0 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 21 = 21

y = - 3x + 21 ← equation of parallel line

David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9. Frances gets ?80 more than David. Explain how you know Egil gets ?80.
Natalija [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.

Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.  

We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:

9x=2x+80

Now let us solve for x.

9x-2x=80

7x=80

x=\frac{80}{7}

Now let us substitute x=\frac{80}{7} in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).

\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=7\cdot \frac{80}{7}

Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,

\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=80  

Therefore, Egil will get $80.

Solve for x -3x+6=2x-24<br><br>-30<br><br>-6 <br><br>6<br><br>30
Svetach [21]

-3x + 6 = 2x - 24.

Add 3x to both sides.

6 = 5x - 24.

Add 24 to both sides.

30 = 5x.

Divide it all by 5.

<em><u>x = 6.</u></em>
