Answer: 1.2 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of one pound of dried apricots = $2.85

The total money Ariel spent on buying dried apricots from the bulk bins =  $3.42

Now, the quantity of dried apricots bought by Ariel = \frac{3.42}{2.85}

⇒ The quantity of dried apricots bought by Ariel = 1.2 pounds

Therefore, the quantity of dried apricots bought by Ariel = 1.2 pounds

Which equation does the graph of the systems of equations solve?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

\text{B. }\frac{1}{3}x-3=-x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by taking a look at the blue line. The slope of any line that passes through two points is equal to the change in y-values over the change in x-values. We can see that the line passes through points (0, 1) and (1, 0). Assign these points to (x_1,y_1) and (x_2, y_2) (doesn't matter which you assign) and use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Let:

(x_1,y_1)\implies (0,1)\\(x_2,y_2)\implies (1, 0)

The slope is equal to:

m=\frac{0-1}{1-0}=\frac{-1}{1}=-1

Therefore, the slope of this line is -1. In slope-intercept form y=mx+b, m represents slope, so one of the lines must have a term with -x in it, which eliminates answer choices A and D.

For the second line, do the same thing. The red line clearly passes through (0, -3) and (3, -2). Therefore, let:

(x_1,y_1)\implies (0,-3)\\(x_2,y_2)\implies (3, -2)

Using the slope formula:

m=\frac{-2-(-3)}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}

Thus, the slope of the line is 1/3 and the other line must have a term with \frac{1}{3}x in it, eliminating answer choice C and leaving the answer \boxed{\text{B. }\frac{1}{3}x-3=-x+1}

*You can find the exact equation of each line by using the slope formula as shown and plugging in any point the line passes through into y=mx+b
