Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x and y and x>y

x-y=3

x+y=27

add

2x=30

x=30/2=15

15+y=27

y=27-15=12

Find the slope of the given points (2,5) and (8,-3) and write the equation​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Slope = \frac{-4}{3}

4x + 3y = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{-3-5}{8-2} =\frac{-8}{6} =\frac{-4}{3}

The equation:

\frac{y-y_{1} }{x-x_{1} }=m   m is the slope

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1} )

y - 5 = -4/3 (x - 2) Multiply both sides by 3

3y -15 = -4 (x - 2)  

3y - 15 = -4x + 8

3y + 4x = 8 + 15

3y + 4x = 23

4x + 3y = 23

You spend $3.50 on fruit. Apples cost $0.20 each while oranges cost $0.30 each. The equation models the situation, where x is th
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

b. 11 apples; 1 orange

Step-by-step explanation:

We test each option, and see if the total is $3.50(what you spend). If the result is different, it is not a possible solution.

a. 1 apple; 11 oranges

1 apple for $0.20

11 oranges for $0.30 each

0.20 + 11*0.30 = $3.50

Possible solution

b. 11 apples; 1 orange

11 apples for $0.20 each

1 orange for $0.30

11*0.2 + 0.3 = 2.5

Not $3.5, so this is not a possible solution.

This is the answer

c. 7 apples; 7 oranges

7*0.2 + 7*0.3 = $3.5

Possible

d. 4 apples; 9 oranges

4*0.2 + 9*0.3 = $3.5

Possible
