Bananas cost: $0.25 
Apples cost: $0.30

4b+5a=2.50
10b+3a=3.40 
You multiply the equations by the variables so they can cancel out. For example the first one by 3 and the second by 5 so you have

12b+15a=7.50
50b+15a=17
Subtract them and end up with

-38b=-9.5 
solve: b=0.25, substitute b in any equation and get a=0.30
Hope this helped

elect the correct answer. graph A graph B graph C graph D A credit card company uses these rules to calculate the minimum amount
laila [671]

The graph that correctly shows the minimum amount due for a credit amount (x)  is graph B.

<h3>How to determine the graph with the minimum amount due?</h3>

First of all, we would assign a variable to the different amount of money as follows:

  • Let x be the credit amount.
  • Let y be the minimum amount due.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

For a bill of less than $100, the entire amount is due:

0 ≤ x < $100, therefore, y = x

For a bill of at least $100 but less than $500, the minimum due is $100: $100 ≤ x < $500, therefore, y = 100

For a bill of at least $500 but less than $1,000, the minimum due is $300:

$500 ≤ x < $1000, therefore, y = $300

For a bill of $1,000 or more, the minimum due is $500:

Since the credit limit is equal to $2000, we have $1000 ≤ x < $2000 and y = $500

In conclusion, the graph that correctly shows the minimum amount due for a credit amount (x)  is graph B.
