The answer is -80, i have done all the math and -80 is the answer
John will pay $8.68 for the combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries.
Let: b=cost of banana per pound and c=cost of cherries per pound
Equation 1: For 3 pounds of cherries and 2 pounds of bananas, John pays a total of $24.95.
3c + 2b =$24.95
Equation 2: The cost of bananas is $6.50 less than a pound of cherries.
b= c - $6.50
We can substitute the second equation into the first one to solve for the cost of cherries per pound.
3c + (2)(c-$6.50)= $24.95
3c + 2c -$13.00 = $24.95
5c = $24.95 + $13.00
c = $7.59
Substituting the value of c to the second equation to solve for b.
b= $7.59 - $6.50 = $1.09
The combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries is $1.09 + $7.59 or $8.68.

Both of your answers are correct. In the first equation, if you were to substitute 3 for x, because you have to do exponents first, you have 3^2, which is 9, and 9*6 =54. If you were to substitute -3 for x again you would have to do the exponents first which would be -3^2 which is 9, and 9*6 = 54.
For the second question, if I substitute 0.75 for t, I get -9 + 18 + 7. This is equal to 16, and therefore the answer would be D. Hope this helps! :D. Let me know if you have questions about my explanation, and feel free to post more questions.

The remaining 2 debts have to add up to a cetain number which I represent as x.
476.25 - 93.22 - x = 0
x = 383.03
The correct two debts should add up to -383.03.
Therefore the answer is B. -66.72 and -316.31
