A is 30% more than B. So, A = B + 30% of B = B + 30/100 *B = B + 3/10 *B = 13/10 *B. B is 60% less than C. So, B = C - 60% of C = C - 60/100 *C = C - 3/5 *C = 2/5 *C.
Answer:
x = 1 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let apples are represented by x
and let oranges are represented by y
You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9. This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 2y = 9
Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges for $17.
This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 6y = 17
Now we have two equations:
5x + 2y = 9 -> eq (i)
5x + 6y = 17 -> eq(ii)
We can solve these equations to find the value of x and y.
Subtracting eq(i) from eq(ii)
5x + 6y = 17
5x + 2y = 9
- - -
_________
0+4y= 8
=> 4y = 8
y= 8/4
y = 2
Now, putting value of y in eq (i)
5x + 2y = 9
5x +2(2) = 9
5x +4 = 9
5x = 9-4
5x = 5
x = 1
so, x = 1 and y = 2
It would be D hope this helps
Well since the triangle is split into 2 triangles and they both are the same size so BD on the bottom is 15 which means naturally BC must be 30. Five I'm not sure about
