Answer:

The cost of each apple is $0.39

The cost of each orange is $1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa buys a dozen apples and two oranges.

Let 'x' be the cost of each apple

and 'y' be the cost of each orange

Lisa buys a dozen apples and two oranges.

12x+2y

Oranges cost $1 each, so y=1

12x+2

Jeremy buys six apples.  So 6x

Total amount spent is $9

12x+2+6x=9

18x+2=9

Subtract 2 from both sides

18x=7

Divide both sides by 18

x=0.39

The cost of each apple is $0.39

The cost of each orange is $1

Find each of the following for ​
KATRIN_1 [288]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a)

          f(x+ h)=8x+8h+3  

(b)

            f(x+ h)-f(x)=8h          

(c)

             \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=8

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as :

              f(x)=8x+3

(a)

           f(x+ h)

We will substitute (x+h) in place of x in the function f(x) as follows:

f(x+h)=8(x+h)+3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=8x+8h+3

(b)

       f(x+ h)-f(x)              

Now on subtracting the f(x+h) obtained in part (a) with the function f(x) we have:

f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-(8x+3)\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-8x-3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8h

(c)

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}            

In this part we will divide the numerator expression which is obtained in part (b) by h to get:

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{8h}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=8

Someone help me with this question please.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Andre scored 14 points.

Equation: x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points Andre scored be x.

Diego's points = x-9

Noah's points = (x-9) × 2

                       = 2x-18

Now, you know the exact value of Noah's points which is 10.

2x-18 = 10

Isolate the 2x.

2x = 10+18

    = 28

x = 28÷2

  = 14
