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

Malik's arts and crafts shop has a bolt of crimson velvet 32 meters long. A customer came in during the morning and bought 120 c
valkas [14]

Given:

Malik's arts and crafts shop has a bolt of crimson velvet 32 meters long.

Velvet purchased by first customer = 120 centimeters

Velvet purchased by second customer = 14 meters

To find:

The remaining velvet in Malik's shop.

Solution:

We know that,

1 meter = 100 cm

Using this conversion, we get

32 meter = 3200 cm

14 meter = 1400 cm

Now,

Remaining velvet in Malik's shop = (3200 - 120 - 1400) cm

                                                    = 1680 cm

Therefore, the remaining velvet in Malik's shop is 1680 cm.

Which equations represent the line that is perpendicular to the line 5x − 2y = −6 and passes through the point (5, −4)? Select t
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are perpendicular if the first line has a slope of m and the second line has a slope of \frac{1}{-m}.

With this information, we first need to figure out what the slope of the line is that we're given, and then we can determine what the slope of the line we're trying to find is:

5x - 2y = -6

-2y = -5x - 6

y = \frac{5}{2}x + 3

We now know that m = \frac{5}{2} for the first line, which means that the slope of the second line is m = \frac{-2}{5}. With this, we have the following equation for our new line:

y = \frac{-2}{5}x + C

where C is the Y-intercept that we now need to determine with the coordinates given in the problem statement, (5, -4):

y = \frac{-2}{5}x + C

(-4) = \frac{-2}{5}(5) + C

-4 = -2 + C

C = -2

Finally, we can create our line:

y = \frac{-2}{5}x - 2

5y = -2x - 10

2x + 5y = -10
