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.

Alik [6]

Answer:

If Andre plans on staying within his budget, he should choose Apartment 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apartment 1: $1100 rent + $250 utilities = $1350 Total Monthly

Apartment 2: $1350 rent + $100 utilities = $1450 Total Monthly

Andre can spend up to $1320 on rent & $320 on utilities, totaling at $1640. In this situation, Andre needs to save as much money as possible. Either on one of these apartments stay below the budget for monthly cost, but Apartment 2's rent goes $30 higher than his budget allows. In the end, this makes apartment 1 the best option for rent, utilities, and ultimate cost.

If Andre plans on staying within his budget, he should choose Apartment 1.
