If #peaches = x and #plums = y we can write the following equations:

x+y=15
0.89x + 0.39y = 8.85

and x and y are whole numbers.

converting the first to x=15-y and plugging it into the second, you get

0.89(15-y) + 0.39y = 8.85 =>
13.35 - 0.89y + 0.39y = 8.85 =>
4.5 = 0.5y =>
y = 9

so x = 15-9 = 6

She bought 9 plums and 6 peaches.

Find The Value Of X When 6-2x = 6x-10x+6. The Value Is
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - 2x = 6x - 10x + 6

1. Isolate the variable (x)

  • Add 2x to both sides

    6 - 2x = 6x - 10x + 6 -> 6 = 6x - 10x + 2x + 6

  • Subtract 6 from both sides

    6x - 10x + 2x + 6 -> 0 = 6x - 10x + 2x

2. Combine like terms

      0 = 6x - 10x + 2x -> 0 = -2x

3. Solve

  • Divide both sides by -2

       0 = x

*Note: 0 divided by anything is 0 so 0/-2 is 0

(unless it is 0/0 which equals 1)
