Set variables for the quantities we want to find. Let x = number of applesLet y = number of oranges Next, we use these variables to write equations that describes the whole story. Since the total price is $7.75 and each type of fruit has their own price, we can say 0.40x + 0.35y = 7.55 The other equation will represent the total number of fruits bought all together, as Mark mentioned. Once you have those equations, you solve the system using substitution and elimination methods to solve for the variables x and y.
Replace x with the binomial a - 2.
f(a - 2) = [3(a - 2) + 5]/(a- 2)
f(a - 2) = [3a - 6 + 5]/(a - 2)
f(a - 2) = [3a - 1]/(a - 2)
f(a - 2) = (3a - 1)/(a - 2)
Done.
One approach is to express
8x2y
so that the numerator and denominator are expressed with the same base. Since 2 and 8 are both powers of 2, substituting 23 for 8 in the numerator of 8x2y gives
(23)x2y
which can be rewritten
23x2y
Since the numerator and denominator of have a common base, this expression can be rewritten as 2(3x−y). In the question, it states that 3x−y=12, so one can substitute 12 for the exponent, 3x−y, which means that
8x2y=212
The final answer is A.
Answer:
A. 26 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
10 3/4 + 15 1/3 + 26.08333333 or 26 1/12
Answer:
x+4≤13
just analyze the words carefully and their meanings, ex.: no more than = ≤
if you wish for the answer to this inequality:
x ≤ 9
just subtract 4 from both sides to leave x alone
