You combine the like terms by canceling out one side of the equation for the number with no variable, and the one with the variable, but they must be on different sides.

Then, you get the variable by itself, by dividing (in this equation, sometimes you will multiply, if there is a fraction)<span>

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Large avocados should cost $ 1.83 or less to be a good deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two types of avocado in the store, some small at $ 0.92 and others larger, to determine at what price large avocados would be a good deal, an equivalence must be established in this regard:

Thus, if two small avocados are equal to one large, buying two small avocados at $ 0.92 the total price would be $ 1.84. Therefore, any large avocado that sells for less than $ 1.84 would be a good deal. Thus, large avocados should cost $ 1.83 or less to be a good deal.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

  3.  about 7.48 hours

  4.  about 1.8892 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of these questions make use of the relation ...

  time = distance / speed

3. time = (965 mi)/(129 mi/h) ≈ 7.48062 h ≈ 7.48 h

__

4. time = (612.1 mi)/(324 mi/h) ≈ 1.889198 h ≈ 1.8892 h

(We have rounded the time to sufficient precision so that the distance at the given speed rounds to the number given.)
