Apples are $0.68 and peaches are $0.42.
To find these values, we need to write and solve the following system of equations.
6x + 9y = 7.86
4x + 5y = 4.82
Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3.
12x + 18y = 15.72
-12x - 15y = 14.46
Add the equations together.
3y = 1.26
y = 0.42
Sub in 0.72 and solve for x in either equation and you will get x = 0.68.
1/5 over 1/65 hour. as in 1/5 divided by 1/65 hr
Solve this equation: $45 - ($2.75/pen)x = $12. Simplifying, we get
$33 = ($2.75)x, so that
x = $33 / ($2.75) = 12.
Tim's buying 12 pens leaves him with $12.
The common number is 6.
72/6=12
60/6=10
12/10
simplify that, it is 6/5
