(1) x represents the number of apples bought, y represents the number of bananas.
(2) each term represents the total costs of a given fruit, so 0.50x is the total cost of apples and 0.30y is total cost of bananas.
(3) The coefficients are unit prices: coefficient 0.50 is the price of 1 apple, 0.30 is the price of 1 banana.
I think it's the last point. (5,4)
Distribute the signs: 12-14+9x
so, -2+9x
Answer:
?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the answer is 7
Step-by-step explanation: add 9 to both sides, eliminating -9 so now you have 7x=49 divide both by 7 and you get x= 7 check it by inputing 7 for x, 7(7)-9=40
7(7)=49 next 49-9= 40
it checks out, so x= 7
