Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, there are two variables: the number of mangoes(y) bought and the number of oranges bought(x).

Let's say the man have z money, mangoes price is \frac{1}{20}z and the oranges price is \frac{1}{30}z. The equation for money and number of mangoes and oranges will be:

money = mango price * mangoes bought + orange price * orange bought

z= \frac{1}{20}z * x + \frac{1}{30}z *y

1= \frac{1}{20}x +\frac{1}{30}y

-\frac{1}{30}y= \frac{1}{20}x -1

y= -1.5x + 30

y= 30 - 1.5x

If he want equal number of mango and orange, that mean y=x. The calculation will be:

y= 30 - 1.5x

x= 30 - 1.5x

x+ 1.5x = 30

2.5x= 30

x= \frac{30}{2.5}= 12

Select the answer choices that show two fractions that are equal. (Select two)..
Kruka [31]

Problem 1

Answers: Choice A, choice D

The formula you use is

a & c/d = (a*d+c)/d

To convert from mixed number form to improper fraction form.

So,

6 & 2/3 = (6*3+2)/3 = (18+2)/3 = 20/3

And also,

8 & 1/5 = (8*5+1)/5 = (40+1)/5 = 41/5

===============================================

Problem 2

Answer: Reflection

Think of how mirrors cause a reflection and this should help you remember the term better. If we reflect point A over some line L, to get point A', then the distance from A to L is the same from A' to L also.
