Answer:

J = 2M and J + M = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John's age be J

Let Mary's age be M

Now we are given that John is twice as old as Mary

So, John's age = J = 2M

Now we are given that The sum of their ages is 52.

So, J+M=52

Thus the system of equations could be used to solve the problem is  J = 2M and J+M=52

Hence Option B is correct.

4 tomatoes and 8 avocados cost $10. Six tomatoes and 14 avocados cost $17. How much does a single avocado and a single tomato co
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:

4t + 8a = 10

6t + 14a = 17

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:

12t + 24a = 30

-12t - 28a = -34

Add them together and solve for a:

-4a = -4

a = 1

Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:

4t + 8a = 10

4t + 8(1) = 10

4t + 8 = 10

4t = 2

t = 0.5

So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

How to do composition of functions​
KengaRu [80]
<h2><u><em>If you rather have the link to get this info lmk!!</em></u></h2>

Example: f(x) = 2x+3 and g(x) = x2

"x" is just a placeholder. To avoid confusion let's just call it "input":

f(input) = 2(input)+3

g(input) = (input)2

Let's start:

(g º f)(x) = g(f(x))

First we apply f, then apply g to that result:

Function Composition - (g º f)(x) = (2x+3)2

What if we reverse the order of f and g?

(f º g)(x) = f(g(x))

First we apply g, then apply f to that result:

Function Composition - (f º g)(x) = 2x2+3

We get a different result!  When we reverse the order the result is rarely the same.  So be careful which function comes first.
