Answer:

1 pear = $0.45

1 mango = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8 pears + 5 mangoes = $11.10 ➡ 8p + 5m = 11.10

5 pears + 4 mangoes = $8.25 ➡ 5p + 4m = 8.25

multiply first equation by -4 and second one by 5

-4 ×(8p+5m) = 11.10 ➡ -32p - 20m = 44.4

5 ×(5p+4m) = 8.25 ➡ 25p + 20m = 41.25

add both equations up

-32p - 20m + 25p + 20m = 44.4 + 41.25

-7p = 3.15 ➡ p = $0.45

use this value to find the price of mango

5×0.45 + 4×m = 8.25 ➡ 2.25 + 4m = 8.25 ➡ 4m = 6 ➡ m = $1.5

Ed wants to buy a new video game system which costs $250. he has
BARSIC [14]

The required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

The number of lawns Ed must mow is assumed to be x.

The amount Ed charges for each lawn he mows is $9.

Thus, the total amount Ed earns by mowing x lawns = $9x.

The savings which Ed has is $135.

Thus, the total amount Ed will have to spend can be written as the expression, $(135 + 9x).

The cost of the video game is given to be $250.

We are asked to write an equation, that can be used to find the number of lawns Ed mow, that is x so that the amount Ed has will be more than the amount he needs to buy the video game.

This can be shown as the equation:

Total amount Ed has > Cost of the video game,

or, 135 + 9x > 250.

Thus, the required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

Solve for x in the diagram below (picture included)
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the straight line is equal to 180°, and the three angles that make it are (x+12),100°, and x. We can use the equation 180=(x+12)+100+x to find x.

180=(x+12)+100+x

We can remove the parentheses and combine x plus x to 2x.

180=100+2x+12

100+12=112

so

180=112+2x

-112 -112

68=2x
