Answer:

Sabrina bought 6 yellow bananas and 3 green bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Green bananas = x

Yellow bananas = y

Green bananas = $14.00

Yellow bananas = $12.00

Total cost = $114.00

x + y = 9 (1)

14x + 12y = 114 (2)

From (1)

x = 9 - y

Substitute x = 9 - y into (2)

14(9 - y) + 12y = 114

126 - 14y + 12y = 114

- 14y + 12y = 114 - 126

-2y = -12

Divide both sides by -2

y = -12 / -2

= 6

y = 6

Substitute y = 6 into (1)

x + y = 9

x + 6 = 9

x = 9 - 6

= 3

x = 3

1) this is simply solving it, so if you divide 16 by 3, you end up getting 5 1/3

2) 3 1/2, by multiplying 7 by 1/2

3) 224, by multiplying 14 by 16

4) 54 mph, by dividing 324 by 6

5) blue, because only the 1/4 ribbon color would be collected after 3/4 mile
