Answer:
- x² = y + 16
- 4y - 1 = 7x
- (5, 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing equations from words is mostly a matter of understanding what the English words mean.
If the first number is x, then the square of the first number is x². That is said to be equal to the sum of the second number (y) and 16:
x² = y + 16 . . . . the first equation
The wording "the difference of A and B" is usually intended to be interpreted to mean A-B. Here, we have the difference of 4 times the second number (4y) and 1, so ...
4y -1
This is equal to the first number (x) multiplied by 7, so ...
4y -1 = 7x . . . . the second equation
__
These can be solved a variety of ways. When no method is specified, I like to use a graphing calculator. It shows the only integer solution for this pair of equations is ...
(x, y) = (5, 9)
Answer:
Shopper spend $3 on Apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5)
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)
A shopper purchases one pound each of apples, grapes, and oranges and spends $10.50.
It can be written as: 
We need to find how much the shopper spend on each fruit.
First we need to find value of x by solving equation
Solving:
The value of x is: x=1.5
Now finding cost of one pound each fruit by putting x=1.5
Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x = 2(1.5) = $3
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5) = (6(1.5)-5)= $4
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)=(1.5+2)=$3.5
So,
Cost of one pound of Apple = $3
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $4
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $3.5
So, shopper spend $3 on apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges

Let w = number of weeks.
In week w,
Laura has: 720 + 30w
Taylor has: 1200 - 30w
Set the two amounts equal and solve for w, the number of weeks.
720 + 30w = 1200 - 30w
60w = 480
w = 8
They will have the same amount of money in 8 weeks.
Laura will have in 8 weeks:
720 + 30w = 720 + 30 * 8 = 720 + 240 = 960
Taylor will have in 8 weeks:
1200 - 30w = 1200 - 30 * 8 = 1200 - 240 = 960
They will both have $960 in 8 weeks.
