Apples are $0.68 and peaches are $0.42.

To find these values, we need to write and solve the following system of equations.

6x + 9y = 7.86
4x + 5y = 4.82

Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3.

12x + 18y = 15.72
-12x - 15y = 14.46

Add the equations together.
3y = 1.26
y = 0.42

Sub in 0.72 and solve for x in either equation and you will get x = 0.68.

Answer:

{-12,12}

Step-by-step explanation:

-|-x| = -12 multiply both sides by -1

|-x| = 12 apply rule for solving absolute value equations

-x = 12 and -x = -12 solve

x = -12 and x =12

Write two different equations that are perpendicular to <br> y=-1/4x - 1.
Monica [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular is 90 degrees or inverse slope of that point

y = -1/4x -1

so the inverse slope of -1/4 is 4

now the other equation is

y = 4x - 1

So the two equations are

y = -1/4x -1

y = 4x - 1
