x=number of oranges.
y=number of bananas.
$5
we can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=12
0.5x+0.25y=5
We can solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x=12-y
0.5(12-y)+0.25y=5
6-0.5y+0.25y=5
-0.25y=5-6
-0.25y=-1
y=-1 /- 0.25=4
x=12-y
x=12-4=8
Answer:

Answer:
86 books
Step-by-step explanation:
A stack of books is 43 inches tall.
Each book is
inch thick.
To find the number of books in tha stack, divide the height of the stack by the height of the book:

The division by the fraction
is equivalent to the multiplication by the fraction
so

Answer:
Ishaan is 49 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Christopher be 'C'.
Let the present age of Ishaan be 'I'.
From the given data, we can form equations which will help us solve the problem.
Christopher is 20 years younger than Ishaan. This means:
C = I - 20 . . . (1)
Fourteen years ago, Ishaan would have been (I -14) years old and Christopher (C - 14) years old.
From the data, I - 14 = 3(C - 14) . . . (2)
Substituting the value of C in Equation 2, we get:
I - 14 = 3(I - 20 - 14)
⇒ I - 14 = 3(I - 34)
⇒ I - 14 = 3I - 112
⇒ 2I = 112 + 14 = 98
⇒ I = 49
So, Ishaan is 49 years old.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
the +4 turns into -4
6-4=2 the (+4-4 on the left would cancel out)
-2x/2 would cancel out as well
2 divided by 2 = 1
