Hey there,
Your question states: <span>A store charges $2.10 for a medium bag of fruit slices. Assuming that the rate stays the same, how much should the store charge for a large bag of the slices?
So sense this is a medium bad of fruit slices, we would divide 2.10 by 2.
Your answer would be 1.5 Now, all we do is we add 2.10+1.5 and we get 3.15. The reason would be because sense we now know the price of the size of it being small, we just add that size on top of the medium size to get 3.15.
Hope this helps.

You do the things in the parentheses first then multiply them by 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 2) = 3*x + 3*2
= 3x + 6
X - y = 5,
x = 5 + y
substitute (x = 5 + y) into the first equation,
5 + y + 2y = -1
3y = -6
y = -2,
substitute y = -2 into (x - y = 5),
x + 2 = 5
x = 3
Hence, x = 3, y = -2
