Answer:

Cherry Pie=$12 per 1

Apple pie= $9 per 1

Let x represent number of Cherry Pies sold.

let y represent number of Apple pie sold

x + y = 20---------------1

12x + 9y = 198---------2

From eqn 1

x=20-y

Substitute into eqn 2

12x + 9y = 198

12(20-y) + 9y=198

240 - 12y + 9y = 198

240 - 3y =198

3y = 240 - 198

3y=42

y=14.

x + y =20

x + 14=20

x=20-14

x=6.

So...

Answer:

You sold 6 cherry pies and 14 apple pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a system of equations problem.

12C + 9A = 198

A + C = 20

A = 20 - C

12C + 9(20 - C) = 198

12C + 180 - 9C = 198

3C + 180 = 198

3C = 18

C = 6

A + 6 = 20

A = 14

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represent a function?<br><br>Need help​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The third graph, the top right graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A function when determined graphically is a graph that passes the straight line test, which means if there is any two points on the graph which you can plot a vertical straight line going through both of them it is not a function.  If 1 x value is equal to 2 y values, it is not a function.
