romanna [79]2 years ago

6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a rectangle these two equations for the length have to equal each other.

2x+4=7x-1

We now need to get all of the x's on one side and constant numbers on the other side.

add 1 to both sides and subtract 2x from both sides.

5=5x

divide 5 from both sides.

x=1

A Fruit Stand sells 6 oranges for $3.00 and grapefruit for $2.40 people buy 10 oranges and 11 grapefruits much does the fruit sp

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The correct answer is:

$31.40.

Explanation:

Since 6 oranges cost $3.00, we can divide to find the cost of one orange:

3.00/6 = $0.50. Each orange costs $0.50.

If ten oranges are bought, this would cost 10(0.50)=$5.00.

Each grapefruit costs $2.40; 11 of them would cost 11(2.40) = 26.40.

Together the total cost is $5+$26.40 = $31.40.

butalik [34]

Answer:

2nd debate was 3 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that during the mayoral election,two debates were held between the candidates. The first debate lasted 1 2/3 hours. The second one was 1 4/5 times as long as the first one.

Let us find the estimate of time spent on 2nd debate.

1 2/3 hours would be approximately 2 hours. 1 4/5 times would be equal to 2 times.

$2*2=4$
