Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of apples that she wants to buy.

The grocery store sells apples for $1 each and mangos for $0.50 each.

If Gabriella decided to buy 13 mangos, it means that the cost of buying x apples and 13 mangoes is expressed as

x + 13 × 0.5 = x + 6.5

If she buy at least 19 apples, it means that

x + 13 ≥ 19

x ≥ 19 - 13

x ≥ 6

Gabriella has $15 to spend. It means that

x + 6.5 ≤ 15

x ≤ 15 - 6.5

x ≤ 8.5

Therefore, the maximum number of apples that she can buy is 8

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour. She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minut
solmaris [256]

Answer:

6.11km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed that Kelli swims be represented by Y

Speed of the river = 5km/hr

Distance = Speed × Time

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour

Swimming upstream takes a negative sign, hence:

1 hour ×( Y - 5) = Distance

Distance = Y - 5

She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes

Downstream takes a positive sign

Converting 6 minutes to hour =

60 minutes = 1 hour

6 minutes =

Cross Multiply

6/60 = 1/10 hour

Hence, Distance =

1/10 × (Y + 5)

= Y/10 + 1/2

Equating both equations we have:

Y - 5 = Y/10 + 1/2

Collect like terms

Y - Y/10 = 5 + 1/2

9Y/10 = 5 1/2

9Y/ 10 = 11/2

Cross Multiply

9Y × 2 = 10 × 11

18Y = 110

Y = 110/18

Y = 6.1111111111 km/hr

Therefore, Kelli's can swim as fast as 6.11km/hr still in the water.

Which expression is equivalent to the product of p+7/3 and 6/p , where p is not equal to 0?
vichka [17]

Answer:

\frac{(6p+14)}{p}

Step-by-step explanation:

(p+\frac{7}{3})(\frac{6}{p})

Making denominator same in first bracket we get

(\frac{3p+7}{3})(\frac{6}{p})

(\frac{(3p+7)*6}{3*p})

Dividing 6 by 3 we get 2

(\frac{(3p+7)*2}{p})

using distributive law

(\frac{6p+14}{p})\\

Hence this is our answer

How can you tell if a equation is extraneous
geniusboy [140]
Do you mean an extraneous solution? I will tell you what I think. To tell if a solution is extraneous you need to go back to the original problem and check if there actually is a solution or if the solution is actually right. If not then it is extraneous.
