Answer:
The two linear equation
x + y = 19.... Equation 1
0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65... Equation 2
Nedra purchased
9 Apples and 11 Oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
Nedra purchased apples and oranges at the grocery store. which two linear equations can be used to find the number of apples and oranges?
Let the number of apples be represented by x
The number of oranges by represented by y.
Hence,
Apples are $0.55 each and oranges are $0.75 each. If she spent a total of $12.65 for 19 pieces of fruit,
Hence:
x + y = 19..... Equation 1
x = 19 - y
$0.55 × x + $0.75 × y = $12.65
0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65.....Equation 2
Hence: we substitute 19 - y for x in Equation 2
0.55(19 - y) + 0.75y = 12.65
10.45 - 0.55y + 0.75y = 12.65
-0.55y+ 0.75y = 12.65 - 10.45
0.20y = 2.2
y = 2.2/0.20
y = 11 oranges
x = 19 - y
x = 19 - 11
x = 8 Apples
Answer:
X = 1

I believe it is B
There will be 340 spaces for students to sit in. You would do 70 x 50 which gets you 350 and then do 2 x 5 which is 10. Then you do 350 - 10 which gets you 340.
