Answer:

Harry buys 6 apples and 5 oranges at the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of each apples = $0.8

Cost of each oranges = $0.95

Total money spend =$9.55

Number of fruits bought= 11

We need to find the number of apples bought and number of oranges were bought.

Solution:

Let the number of apples bought be 'a'.

Let the number of oranges were bought be 'o'.

Number of fruits bought= 11

So we can say that;

Number of fruits bought is equal to sum number of apples bought and number of oranges were bought.

framing in equation form we get;

a+o=11 ⇒ equation 1

Now we can say that;

Total money spend is equal to number of apples bought multiplied by Cost of each apples plus number of oranges were bought multiplied by Cost of each oranges.

framing in equation form we get;

0.8a+0.95o=9.55 ⇒ equation 2

Now Multiplying equation 1 by 0.8 we get;

0.8(a+o)=0.8\times11

0.8a+0.8o=8.8 ⇒ equation 3

Subtracting equation 3 from equation 2 we get;

0.8a+0.95o-(0.8a+0.8o)=9.55-8.8\\\\0.8a+0.95o-0.8a-0.8o=0.75\\\\0.15o=0.75

Dividing both side by 0.15 we get;

\frac{0.15o}{0.15}=\frac{0.75}{0.15}\\\\o=5

Substituting the value of o in equation 1 we get;

a+o=11\\\\a+5=11\\\\a=11-5=6

Hence Harry buys 6 apples and 5 oranges at the store.

A house that costs $125,400 appreciates at a rate of 3% each year. What is the value of the
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The value after three years is $137,027.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of the home after 3 years

Generally, we have the exponential formula as follows;

y = P(1 + r)^t

where P is the original cost which is $124,400

r is the rate of increase which is 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

t is the time which is 3 years

Substituting these values;

y = 125400(1 + 0.03)^3 = $137,027.97

K is the midpoint of PQ, P has
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Coordinates of Q (x_2,y_2) \:are\: \mathbf{(7,16)}

Option D is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

K is the midpoint of PQ

Coordinates of P = (-9,-4)

Coordinates of K = (-1,6)

We need to find coordinates of Q  (x_2,y_2)

We will use the formula of midpoint: Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

We are given midpoint K and x_1,y_1 the coordinates of P we need to find x_2,y_2 the coordinates of Q.

Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})\\(-1,6)=(\frac{-9+x_2}{2},\frac{-4+y_2}{2})\\

Now, we can write

-1=\frac{-9+x_2}{2}, 6=\frac{-4+y_2}{2}\\Simplifying:\\-2=-9+x_2\:,\: 12=-4+y_2\\-2+9=x_2\:,\: 12+4=+y_2\\x_2=7\:,\:y_2=16

So, we get coordinates of Q (x_2,y_2) \:are\: \mathbf{(7,16)}

Option D is correct option.

Serena and Sienna both work for a company that pays 12 dollars per hour for the first 40 hours of work in a week. If an employee
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

87 total hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation 456/12 Gives you how many hours Sienna worked. (38)

642-480 will give you how much money Serena made off of Just OT (162)

162/18 = 9 (9 is how many overtime hours Serena worked.)

Serena worked her normal 40 hours, then worked over time, so you have to add 40 to the equation.

9+40+38 = 87

Serena and Sienna worked 87 total hours.
