Lets try to solve this problem using 2 equations, also,we will have bananas=b and pears =p
5b+3p= $3.80
2b+4p= $3.20 i will divide this equation by 2 and get
b+2p= $ 1.60 we subtract 2p from both side so i can find the cost for 1 banana
b+2p-2p=1.60-2p
b= $1.60-2p
I will replace the b in the first equation now,
5(1.60-2p)+3p=$3.80
8-10p+3p=3.80 solving for p
8-7p=3.80 we subtract 8 from both sides
-7p=-8+3.80
-7p=-4.20 we multiply both sides by (-1)
7p=4.20 we divide now both sides by 7
p=0.60 a pear cost 0.60 cents
a banana is b=1.60-2p, b=0.40 cents
Answer:
500,000 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
1 / 5000 = 100 / x
x = 5000(100)
x = 500,000
The length is 11.25 inches.
The width is 3.75 inches.
2w= 56
/2 /2
------------
w= 28
-5x-6.5>12
Add 6.5 to both sides...
-5x>18.5
Divide both sides by -5 and flip the sign...
x<-3.7
