Answer:
The sum of a number and 7 multiplied by 2 is increased by 10
Step-by-step explanation:
8 x 5/8 = The ounces fed by Jeff
You need to convert 1/2 with the denominator of 8 with would be 4/8
8 x 4/8 = The ounces fed by Melody
HOPE THIS HELPS!!
2 because is isisisisisisisisis
We can create equations to solve this.
2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15
Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.
p + m = 15
Subtract p to both sides:
m = -p + 15
Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.
2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50
Distribute:
2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50
Combine like terms:
p + 22.50 = 29.50
Subtract 22.50 to both sides:
p = 7
Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.
p + m = 15
7 + m = 15
Subtract 7 to both sides:
m = 8
So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.
The answer is 2,2
as 3*2 - 2 = 4
ans 2*2 +2 = 4
So it satisfies both eqautions
