Assume that the number of apples is x and the number of oranges is y.

For the first given, we know that each apple costs $0.24 and each orange costs $0.8, therefore:
amount paid for apples = 0.24x and amount paid for oranges = 0.8y
we also know that the total amount spent is $12, therefore the first equation is as follows:
0.24x + 0.8y = 12

For the second given, we know that the total number of fruit bought is 20, therefore, the second equation is:
x + y = 20

You can easily graph these two functions and find a possible combination from the graph (the correct combination would be the intersection between the two lines).

GarryVolchara [31]
Answer=18 pages

Steven read 9 pages on Monday. If he needs to read DOUBLE that amount on Tuesday, then we need to take the number of pages he read on Monday and times it by 2.

9*2=18pages

Steven needs to read 18 pages on Tuesday.

**Remember that Double is the same as 'two times more', or 2x more...

Please guys i really need your help and please explain how you got it please
lina2011 [118]
The answer would be C because in order to find the area of a figure, you would need to multiply its height by its width. finding the area of a figure is the same as finding how many units are in a figure. because this is a square and all the sides are equal, by counting the total number of units, you can find the area.
