Danielle and Emilia brought apples, bananas, and oranges to a fruit sale.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

26 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

bananas, b= $0.50

oranges, o= $0.75

apples, a = $0.75

Total fruit sold = 50

Total Earned = $33.50

b + o + a = 50 Because the total number of all 3 fruits sold is 50

.5b + .75o + .75a = $33.50 The number of each fruit, multiplied by the price of each fruit, and added together is $33.50

They sold twice as many bananas than oranges.

If o is oranges, then 2o = b because there are twice as many bananas so:

b + o + a = 50

2o + o + a = 50

3o + a = 50

Now we can solve.

3o + a = 50

a = 50 - 3o

.5b + .75o + .75a = $33.50

.5(2o) + .75o + .75a = $33.50

o + .75o + .75a = $33.50

1.75o + .75a = $33.50

Two equations and 2 unknowns.

a = 50 - 3o

1.75o + .75a = $33.50 Plug in a to solve for o.

1.75o + .75(50 - 3o) = $33.50

1.75o + .75*50 - .75*3o = $33.50

1.75o + 37.5 - 2.25o = $33.50 Combine like terms

1.75o - 2.25o +37.5 = $33.50

-.5o + 37.5 = 33.5 Add .5o to each side so it cancels on the left.

37.5 = 33.5 + .5o Subtract 33.5 from each side

37.5 -33.5 = .5o

4 = .5o Divide each side by .5

4/.5 = o

8 = o

Now plug into a = 50 - 3o

a = 50 - 3(8)

a = 50 - 24

a = 26

So even though we know they sold 26 apples, let's finish solving to check our work.

b + o + a = 50

b + 8 + 26 = 50

b + 34 = 50

b = 50 - 34

b = 16

b = 2o

b = 2 (8)

b = 16 Which works! Now the last step of checking our work:

.5b + .75o + .75a = $33.50

.5(16) + .75(8) + .75(26) = $33.50

8 + 6 + 19.5 = $33.50

14 + 19.5 = $33.50

33.5 = $33.50 Yes! It works too!

bananas = 16

oranges = 8

apples = 26

PLEASE SHOW WORK AND HELP EXPLAIN: 12.42 divided by 4.6

Anni [7]

Answer:

12.42 = 1242 / 100;

4.6 = 46 / 10;

12.42 ÷ 4.6 = (1242 / 100) ÷ (46 / 10 ) = (1242 / 100) x (10 / 46 ) = ( 1242 / 46 ) x ( 100 / 10 ) = 27 x 10 = 270;

If the given values in a right triangle are cos A =

Vlad1618 [11]

See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2

the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2
