Factors of 26 are 1, 2, 13, 26 all you have to do is figure out which numbers can go until a number and in this case the number is 26.
Answer:
- one orange costs $0.35 and one grapefruit costs $0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>let grapefruits be g , let oranges be o</em>
so first equation:
→2g + 3o = $1.95
→g = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
so second equation:
→ 3g + 2o = $2.05
→ g = ($2.05 - 2o)/3
Solving simultaneously:
→ ($2.05 - 2o)/3 = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ 2($2.05 - 2o) = 3($1.95 - 3o)
→ 4.1 - 4o = 5.85 - 9o
→ - 4o + 9o = 5.85 - 4.1
→ 5o = 1.75
→ o = $0.35
Therefore one orange costs $0.35
Then one grapefruit costs g → ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ g = ($1.95 - 3(0.35))/2
→ g = 0.45
Therefore one grapefruit costs $0.45
The equation you can use to solve the problem is;
50/30 = 300/x
Next Cross Multiply
50x = 9000
x = 9000/50
x = 180
The building's shadow is 180 feet tall
20+2N=52
now subtract 20 from each side, to get 2N alone
2N=32
now divide each side by 2
N=16
-1/4 + f/8 = 1/2.
The LCD is 8. Rewrite this equation as -8/4 + 8f/8 = 8(1/2) and then reduce the result:
-2 + f = =4
Then f = 6.
You should check this result.
