Answer:

5.46 kilograms or 6.6 kilograms  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that 2 5 in your question has two possible meaning:

  • 2/5 of  this weight is apples

Let divide 9.1 kilograms into 5 equal part

=> 1 equal part =  9.1 / 5 = 1.82 kilograms  

Because 2/5 of this weight is apples, so the weight of apples accounted for 2 equal parts

=> the weight of apples is: 2*1.82 kilograms  = 3.64 kilograms

=>  the weight of pears is: 9.1 kilograms - 3.64 kilograms = 5.46 kilograms

  • 2.5 kg of  this weight is apples

Given the total weight is 9.1 kilograms

=>  the weight of pears is: 9.1 kilograms - 2.5 kilograms = 6.6 kilograms

What is an algebraic expression to represent the perimeter of a rectangle with a width of x+5 and a length of 3x+10?
Sveta_85 [38]
We know that the area of a rectangle is equal to the width multiplied by the length. So in this case the algebraic expression is (x+5)*(3x+10). You get 3x^2 +10x +15x +50= 3x^2 +25x +50.
