Lexi purchased 1\frac{1}{2} pounds of green apples and \frac{3}{4} pounds of red ones. In total, she purchased

1\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{3\cdot 2+3}{4}=\dfrac{9}{4} pounds of apples.

If apples cost $1.08 per pound, then the total cost is

\$1.08\cdot \dfrac{9}{4}=\$\dfrac{108}{100}\cdot \dfrac{9}{4}=\$\dfrac{54}{50}\cdot \dfrac{9}{4}=\$\dfrac{27\cdot 9}{50\cdot 2}=\$\dfrac{243}{100}=\$2.43.

Answer: $2.43

5 (u + 1) -<br>7 = 3<br>3 (u - 1) + 2u​
frez [133]

Correct Question:

5 (u + 1) - 7  = 3 (u - 1) + 2u.

Solve for u

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

In this given question, we are required to find u.

Given the equation:

5 (u + 1) - 7 = 3 (u - 1) + 2u​

Required:

Solve for u

To find u, first simplify both sides individually.

Simply 5 (u + 1) - 7:

Expand the parenthesis:

5u + 5 - 7

Collect like terms:

5u - 2

<em>Simplify 3 (u - 1) + 2u​:</em>

Expand the parenthesis:

3u - 3 + 2u

Collect like terms:

3u + 2u - 3

5u - 3

Bring both simplified equations together:

5u - 2 = 5u - 3

5u - 5u - 2 = -3

-2 = -3

Since -2 ≠ -3, there is no solution.

Therefore, we can say the equation is invalid.

What is the value of x if 5x+2 = 59?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

x = 57/5 = 11.400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

1.1      Solve  :    5x-57 = 0

Add  57  to both sides of the equation :

                     5x = 57

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

                    x = 57/5 = 11.400

One solution was found :

                  x = 57/5 = 11.400
