Answer:

2.6 pounds of apples; 1.2 pounds of bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

A = pounds of apples and B = pounds of bananas

The total weight is 3.8 pounds, so:

A + B = 3.8

Apples are $1.90 per pound and bananas are $0.75 per pound, and the total cost is $5.84, so:

1.90A + 0.75B = 5.84

We can solve the system of equations using either elimination or substitution.

Using substitution:

1.90A + 0.75(3.8 - A) = 5.84

1.90A + 2.85 - 0.75A = 5.84

1.15A = 2.99

A = 2.6

B = 3.8 - A

B = 1.2

A month of the year is chosen at random. What is the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a month of the year is chosen at random, to determine what is the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M, the following calculation must be performed:

January - March - May - June - July = 5 months

(5/12) x 100 = X

0.4166 x 100 = X

41.66 = X

Therefore, the probability that the month starts with the letter J or the letter M is 41.66%.
