Answer:
1.88
Step-by-step explanation:
A farmer sells 9.4 kilograms of pears and apples
4/5 of the total weight is pears while the rest is apple
Let x represent the number of apples
9.4= 4/5 ×9.4 + x
9.4 = 0.8×9.4+x
9.4 = 7.52+ x
9.4-7.52= x
1.88= x
x= 1.88
Answer:
x=4, y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - y = 6
x + y = 6
Add these together to eliminate y
2x - y = 6
x + y = 6
-----------------
3x = 12
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 12/3
x=4
But we still need y
x+y =6
4+y =6
Subtract 4 from each side
4+y-4 = 6-4
y=2
Answer:
Rate is 9 kilometers (km)/week.
Step-by-step explanation:
9000 meters is 9 km (divide m by 1000 to get km)
Answer:
son = 6 mother = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Mother = m
son = s
m = 8s
m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)
so
2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)
16s + 12 = 9s + 54
16s - 9s = 54 - 12
7s = 42
s = 42/7 = 6 years old
so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old
A equation to represent this situation is:

Now we have to find x.
Step 1: Subtract 0.5x from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>0.75x</span>+7.5</span>−<span>0.5x</span></span>=<span><span><span>0.5x</span>+10</span>−<span>0.5x</span></span></span><span><span><span>0.25x</span>+7.5</span>=10
</span>Step 2: Subtract 7.5 from both sides.
0.25x+7.5−7.5=10−7.50.25x=2.5
Step 3: Divide both sides by 0.25.
<span><span><span>0.25x/</span>0.25</span>=<span>2.5/<span>0.25
</span></span></span>Answer:
<span>x=<span>10</span></span>
