Answer: She sold 6.6kg of pears in the market.
Step-by-step explanation:
Weight of apples and pears at the farmer's market.=8.8 kilograms
Weight of apples = 1/4
which is = 1/4 x 8.8kg = 2.2 kg
Weight of Pears =Weight of apples and pears - Weight of apples
= 8.8kg- 2.2kg
= 6.6kg
Answer:
The first one is equivalent [the 6x+48 = 2(3x+24)] and the second one is <u>NOT</u> equivalent [the 7x+21 ≠ 2(5x+3)]
Step-by-step explanation:
Just follow distributive property to solve these. You can ignore the first expression in both until you have to compare the answers.
1. 6x+48 and 2(3x+24)
2(3x+24) ---> 2(3x) + 2(24) ---> <u>6x + 48</u>
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>6x+48 and 6x+48 </u>
They are the same, so they are equivalent
2. 7x+21 and 2(5x+3)
2(5x+3) ---> 2(5x) + 2(3) ----> 10x + 6
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>7x+21 and 10x + 6</u>
They are NOT the same, so they are NOT equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
x = mass of apples
y = mass of strawberries
z = mass of the box
x = 3y
x + z = 16240
y + z = 6350
let's subtract the second from the first equation
x + z = 16240
- y + z = 6350
-----------------------
x - y + 0 = 9890
using the first identity in that result gives us
3y - y = 9890
2y = 9890
y = 4,945 g
x = 3y = 3×4945 = 14,835 g = the mass of the apples
