Ask them to first estimate the quotient and then to find the actual
Answer:
The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>
Emily and her children went into a grocery store and she bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches. Each banana costs $0.80 and each peach costs $2. She bought a total of 14 peaches and bananas altogether. Determine the number of peaches and the number of bananas that Emily bought
Let
x ----> the number of bananas that Emily bought
y ----> the number of peaches that Emily bought
we know that
She bought a total of 14 bananas and peaches altogether
so
-----> equation A
She bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches
so
-----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (6,8)
see the attached figure
therefore
The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8
I took the quiz and this what the answer, I hope this help future people that had the same question.
The answer is
C) -7
Multiply -5 by 2
Divide 8 by 4 :
3-10+2-2
Subtract 10 from 3 :
-7+2-2
Add -7 and 2 :
-5 - 2
Subtract 2 from -5:
-7
