An apple sells for 25 cents and a peach sells for 15 cents. A total of 10 fruits were sold for a total of $2.10. How many apples
hammer [34]

Answer:

6 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 0.25

P = 0.15

----------------

A + P = 10

0.25A+0.15P=2.10

----------------

I did this: 0.25*10 = 2.50

2.50-2.10=.40

0.25-0.15=0.10

0.40/0.10 = 4 so 4 peaches

10 fruits - 4 peaches = 6 apples

6. Identify the recursive formula for the sequence 3, –15, 75, –375, . . .
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

r = - 15 ÷ 3 = 75 ÷ - 15 = - 375 ÷ 75 = - 5

The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by r , thus

f(n) = - 5f(n - 1) if n > 1

with f(1) = 3 ← first term

Write a real-world problem that could be represented by the following inequality. 70 + 5x &lt; 30 + 15x
kondaur [170]

Justin wants to paint his room. So he put together some quotations from two different painters. The first painter's total charge was based on the number of hours (denoted as x) worked was modeled as f( x ) = 70 + 5 x, while that of the second painter was g( x ) = 30 + 15 x. Justin knows that it will take more than 4 hours to decorate the house so he was certain to go with the first painter whose cost is low-priced when the number of hours is above 4 hours.
