Set variables for the quantities we want to find. Let x = number of applesLet y = number of oranges Next, we use these variables to write equations that describes the whole story. Since the total price is $7.75 and each type of fruit has their own price, we can say 0.40x + 0.35y = 7.55 The other equation will represent the total number of fruits bought all together, as Mark mentioned. Once you have those equations, you solve the system using substitution and elimination methods to solve for the variables x and y.
5 1/2 pages in 12 minutes.
11/2 pages in 12 minutes
How many pages in an hour?
well, an hour has 60 minutes
Let's write a proportion
11/2 / 12 = x/60
cross multiply
(11/2 * 60) = 12x
330 = 12x
divide both sides by 12
27.5 or 27 1/2 = x
27.5 pages per hour.
Hope this helps
(a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2
(1+5/6) (1-5/6) = 1^2 - (5/6)^2 = 1 - 25/36 = 36/36 - 25/36 = (36-25)/36 = 11/36
11/36 is your answer
Answer: $(d-3c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount Tina had = $d
Cost of cupcakes = $c
Number of cupcakes purchased = 3
Therefore,
Total cost of cupcakes = cost per cupcake × number of cupcakes
Total cost of cupcakes = $c × 3 = $3c
Amount left after cupcake purchase:
Total amount Tina had - total cost of cupcakes :
$d - $3c
Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
4 * 4 =16
Right triangle is 10 because 5 *4=10
9 * 9 = 81
7*5=35
16 + 10 + 81 + 35= 142
142 rounded to the nearest ten is 140
