Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the first receipt:
2 pounds of grapes + 4 pounds of oranges = 10.70 which, in an algebraic equation, looks like this:
2g + 4o = 10.70
From the second receipt:
3 pounds of grapes + 2 pounds of oranges = 9.65 which, in an algebraic equation, looks like this:
3g + 2o = 9.65
Putting those together into a system and solving using the elimination method:
2g + 4o = 10.7
3g + 2o = 9.65
I am going to eliminate the oranges first since it's easier to do that. I will multiply the second equation by -2 to get a new system:
2g + 4o = 10.7
-6g - 4o = -19.3
As you can see, the oranges are eliminated because 4o - 4o = 0o. That leaves us with only the grapes:
-4g = -8.6 so
g = 2.15
Grapes cost $2.15 per pound. Now sub that into either one of the original equations to solve for the cost per pound of oranges:
2(2.15) + 4o = 10.7 and
4.3 + 4o = 10.7 and
4o = 6.4 so
o = 1.60
Oranges cost $1.60 per pound. That is choice D from your list.
9/10 = x/13. Solve for x. X = 11.7.
Your answer would be 11.7oz. Hope this helps
You think I know right? yeah so no way boy I'm so sorry not my intencion
Answer:
1. C
2. D
3. C
Explanation:
1. Girls = 12 plus twice the number of boys, so C. y = 12 + 2x.
2. You have to see which point has the second value being greater than the first value:
A) -1 > -2 is not true
B) 0 > 1 is not true
C) 2 > 3 is not true
D) 8 > 4 is true, so it's D
3. Add the two values and see if it's less than 5
A) -1-4 < 5 is true
B) 0 + 4 < 5 is true
C) 1 + 7 < 5 is not true, so this is the answer
D) 2 + 2 < 5 is true
