Answer:

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two equations

x-y=2....(1)

2x+3y =14...(2)

we have to solve the above equations using elimination method.

Multiplying (1) equation by 2, we get

2x-2y=4....(3)

Subtract equation (3) from (2), we get

3y-(-2y)=14-4

5y=10

Dividing by 5, we get

y=\frac{10}{5}=2

(1) implies x-y=2

x-2=2

x=2+2=4

hence, the solution is (4,2)

Option A is correct.

Apples sell for $1.90 per pound, and bananas sell for $0.75 per pound. Troy bought some apples and some bananas. Together they w
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

  C.  1.15p + 2.85 = 5.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation above is not one you'd start off with to represent this problem. It is an intermediate step in the solution.

You can get there by realizing that the number of pounds of bananas is 3.8-p. Then the cost of the bananas is ...

  banana cost = 0.75·(3.8-p) = 2.85 - 0.75p

Of course, the cost of apples is 1.90p. The total cost is then ...

  apple cost + banana cost = total cost

  1.90p + (2.85 -0.75p) = 5.84

Simplifying, this becomes ...

  1.15p + 2.85 = 5.84 . . . . . . . . . . . . matches selection C

Erik rides his motorcycle 193.5 in 3 hours. What is Erik's average speed in miles per hour?
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Average speed = 40 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed can be calculated by using the formula

Speed = Distance ÷Time

Given Distance covered = 26\frac{2}{3} =\frac{80}{3}2632=380 miles.

Time =\frac{2}{3}32 hours .

Substituting the values of distance and time we have :

Average speed = \frac{\frac{80}{3} }{\frac{2}{3} }32380

                                =\frac{80}{3} .\frac{3}{2} =40380.23=40 miles per hour.

The area of a parallelogram is 64 m2. If a diagonal divides the parallelogram into 2 triangles, what is the area of 1 of the tri
maw [93]

Answer:

32\:\mathrm{m^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

When cut by a diagonal, the parallelogram will be divided into two congruent triangles. By definition, congruent polygons have equal areas. Therefore, let the area of each of the triangle be x:

x+x=64,\\2x=64,\\x=\frac{64}{2}=\boxed{32\:\mathrm{m^2}}
