The answer to the question is B.
We can create equations to solve this.
2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15
Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.
p + m = 15
Subtract p to both sides:
m = -p + 15
Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.
2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50
Distribute:
2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50
Combine like terms:
p + 22.50 = 29.50
Subtract 22.50 to both sides:
p = 7
Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.
p + m = 15
7 + m = 15
Subtract 7 to both sides:
m = 8
So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.
Answer:
m = 2 and b = -8.
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the most commonly used equations of straight lines is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Comparing the given y = 2x - 8 to y = mx + b, we see that m = 2 and b = -8.
40% = 40 / 100 = 0.4
32 is 40% of what
= 32 / 40
= 32 / 0.4
= 80

U can also use this equation to solve it.
32 = 40%x
Simplfy
= 32 = 2/5x
Flib the equation.
2/5x = 32
Multipy both sides by 5/2
(5/2) * 2/5x = (5/2) * 32
x = 80.
