To answer this question you have to create a system of equations. The first equation will be that Devi's money (x) equals her brother's money (y), or x = y. The next equation would be that (3/5)x + (7/10)y = 78. You than can substitute x in for y because x = y. The equation would know be (3/5)x + (7/10)x = 78. You then combine the like terms to create an equation of (13/10)x = 78. Then, multiply both sides by 10 / 13 in order to isolate x. This will create the equation x = 60. This means that Devi and her brother each had 60 dollars. You then find out how much they spent and add it together. You can do so with the equation (2/5)x + (3/10)y = z, with z being total money spent. You substitute 60 in for x and for y then solve. When you solve you see that 24 + 18 = z, or that z equals 42. In other words, they spent 42 dollars altogether.

Antonio runs 1,460 miles in one year
Answer:
x = 26.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Cos theta = adjacent side / hypotenuse
cos 50 = 17 /x
Switch the x and the cos 50
x = 17 / cos 50
x =26.44730506
Rounding to 2 decimal places
x = 26.45

Answer:
equation: y = 4x
graph is attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y represent the cost of the peaches in dollars. Let x represent their weight in pounds. Then the relation between the two variables is ...
cost = (cost per pound) × (pounds)
y = 4x
