Let's write 2 equations from the two statements given.
<em>Sarah spent 10 dollars on both oranges and apples</em>
<em />
Let the price of oranges be "x" and price of apples be "y", thus we can write:
Oranges cost 3 less than apples, thus we can say:
We can substitute this into the first equation and solve for y:
Thus, let's solve for x now,
We want the price of oranges (x), thus,
<em>Price of Oranges = $3.50</em>
Answer:
x is the reciprocal of the difference of a and b.
Step-by-step explanation:
ax=bx+1
Subtract by bx on both sides
ax-bx=1
x(a-b)=1
x= 1/(a-b)
Answer:
First, we need to set up a (y−k)^2=4p(x−h). After plugging in all of your values, you would get (x-5)^2=-4(y-1). Now, we need to solve in terms of y by dividing each side by the factors that don't contain the variable
Step-by-step explanation:
D. There is a 5/8 chance each time. You would multiply that together to get the answer seen in D.
