Ah usatestprep ok 90% of awnsers are C so pick C
x + 15 = 24
subtract 15 from both sides
x = 24 - 15 = 9
Answer:
Let's call:
f = price of 1 cup of dried fruit
a = price of 1 cup of almonds
In order to build the linear system, you need to consider that the total price of a bag is given by the sum of the price of cups times the number of cups in each bag, therefore:
Solve for a in first equation:
a = (6 - 3f) / 4
Then substitute in the second equation:
41/2 f + 6 · (6 - 3f) / 4 = 9
41/2 f + 9 - 9/2 f = 9
16 f = 0
f = 0
Now, substitute this value in the formula found for a:
a = (6 - 3·0) / 4
= 3/2 = 1.5
Hence, the cups of dried fruit are free and 1 cup of almond costs 1.5$
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the distance between two numbers, you simply subtract them!
-18--4
-18+4 (two negatives makes a positive)
-14.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
Michael and Carlos will have the same amount after 7 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the total number of baseball cards that Carlos and Michael need to have to be equal is y, and the amount of time in terms of weeks that it will take for this to be achieved is x.
The following expressions can be derived
For Carlos to achieve y, he will need 85 and an addition of 10 per week (x):
y=85+(10x)..........equation 1
For Michael to achieve y, he will need 120 and an addition of 5 per week (x):
y=120+(5x)..........equation 2
Equating equation 1 and 2 to solve for x
85+10x=120+5x
10x-5x=120-85
5x/5=35/5
x=7
Number of weeks it will take Michael and Carlos to have the same amount=x=7 weeks
